Wow! That was *the* game I played in high school. I spent sooo many long 
nights playing Descent 1/2 with my best friend. Our parents didn't 
realize we were tying up the phone line to play that game but it was 
incredible.

Talk about fond memories. I've looked at it today and the graphics are 
sooo cheesy, but hey, there is a remake and it is hopefully going to be 
equally amazing!
