Summary
May be the best game out there
The Good
This game is great because it has more detail, and graphics. Like in all Descent games, you can fly up and down, left, and right, all over, and with games like Doom, you're only on the floor.
Descent 3 has better detail and graphics than the other two. This one is different than Descent 1 and 2, being that you will always have headlights, a guide bot and an afterburner! What else is different is that you have objectives, rather than find keys, and destroy a reactor or boss.
The Bad
When aiming down or at some angle, it will automatically auto level your ship within a few seconds if you're not moving the ship.
So when firing at an angle, fire quickly, or slowly move the stick so it won't auto level.
I guess this is good for beginners, but when your ready to fire a missile or a bomb, ESPECIALLY the "Black Shark", you'd hate to fire it when you're being auto leveled, close to a wall! OUCH!!!
Also, this isn't really a bad thing, nor any problem with Descent, but some places are VERY COOL, that I don't want to fight any robots, but just cruise around and see what amazing things they came up with.
The Bottom Line
I think overall, it's a great game. You have some great music, great weapons, and very nice detail and amazing scenes.
For beginners, you may feel ill from motion. Just take a break, and play a little at a time. Before you know it, you'll be flying in circles, driving very crazy and nutty, and not feel any motion illness.
If you want a great game with cool action, and being able to move around freely, this is the game for you!!
