Descent 3 - Part 1
Cedega Install For : Cedega / Mepis Linux by : je.saist It has been some time since a Descent game last appeared. This guide looks at Descent 3, the final game in the series, released in 1999, and running it under Cedega on Mepis Linux. Sadly, this may have been the final Descent game ever made. The original Descent game was developed by Parallax Software and published by Interplay. The third game was developed by Outrage Games and also published by Interplay. With the 2004 meltdown of Interplay entertainment, hope for another Descent seems dim... However, Outrage Games appears to be under THQ... so there may be hope yet for another title. To Install and Play this game the original Install media is required
