I too want to vote for this. This is a game I would love to join the podcast for. I’m a big fan of the Descent series. Last year at PaxWest I had the developers of Descent sign my game boxes at their booth promoting their new game Overload.

I had a lot of fun playing with Devil the level editor for Descent. Understanding how the levels were put together made me start analyzing the world around me constantly looking at shapes and thinking about how I would put things together in the game.

This is also one of the first modem multiplayer games I played with a friend.

The soundtrack for this and Descent II are amazing and I have them in my car in MP3 format and I listen to them at least once a month.

I pulled WC3 off the shelf, super happy. My dad said I could get a game and 14 y/o me was amazingly excited. I hand the game to my dad. He thinks it looks pretty cool. He flips over the box and notices. 8 MB Ram required… Sorry son, we only have 4… Are you kidding? 8 Megs required? What are they thinking? Origin is obviously trying to ruin my life.

I *think* I bought Even More Incredible Machine instead. A great game in its own right, however, it’s no Wing Commander.

This is a game I love. I have such great memories of my dad bringing it home. Exploring it. Discovering a built in editor. Inviting friends over to build levels. Writing in to Epic and getting some free swag. Great stuff!
