For solid shooting action, Descent Maximum delivers the goods. Time to go underground...again.

This game could have been a lot better. The slowdown really turned me off and the repetitive levels also left me wanting more. I could see flashes of what made the PC game a hit, but I don't think this will ever receive the same attention on the PSX. The game adds a fairly original twist to the first-person genre—which was refreshing—but just came up short overall.

Descent Maximum suffers from the same problems that plagued Descent and Descent II on the PC. Sure, it's neat to fly around a futuristic mine in outer space, but how much compelling gameplay does it offer in the long run? If you're a fan of the computer game, or you love first-person 3-D adventures, you may want to check this title out. If this doesn't describe you, your money will be better spent elsewhere.
