Description
The third installment of the famous 3d shooter
Descent. Hop in your Pyro-GX, dive at high speed into the mines and blast hordes of robots without mercy!
Descent³ features the same 360 degrees, three axis action that the players of
Descent and
Descent II have come to love, but this time the game has far improved 3D graphics, more diversified objectives, more lethal weapons, and 3 different ships you can pilot.
And for the first time in the Descent series, you can actually fly out of the mines and explore outdoor areas.
Descent³ was also designed with multiplayer play in mind, and features a lot of mutiplayer game modes: the classic deathmatch, teamplay, capture the flag, monsterball (a kind of soccer with giant balls) and entropy.

Trailer
The 1st disc came with a trailer for the late lamented
Star Trek: The Vulcan Fury game. This was to be the ultimate trekkie adventure game, complete with a script by Trek author DC Fontana. The game used photorealistic renders of the cast of TOS. You could even see the drawn eyebrows on Spock! For some reason, Interplay canceled this game.
