Descent is a big part of gaming history, but not many people talk about it.

    Descent is why I invert my mouse in all fps games. I started with a joystick plus keyboard, because I was fresh off of F-19, the flight simulator.

    For people who enjoyed Descent, you may enjoy Overload. It was created by some of the original creators and is also a 6DOF shooter.
