Descent 3Descent 3 is an awesome game, offering something completley different in FPS gaming. With it's innovative 360 degree 3D engine, it takes you to a whole new level of gameplay.

D3 is in a totally different league than other FPS games, because you are in a weightless environment flying a small ship. This creates a unique gaming experience. Playing online, on LAN or in multiplayer co-op makes D3 the kinda game that has longevity.

 

Multiplayer (the stuff that matters):
But the most amazing thing about D3 is the fact that it has MULTIPLAYER CO-OP through the ENTIRE CAMPAIGN! fustainlach and I have played through most of the levels together, it is just awesome!

D3, highly recommended for people looking to do a campaigned based game through the dark months of the winter!

RATING 9/10
