Yeah.. Interplay is pretty much dead already. But it's alright, got things sorted out now. :) Should be setup again and ready to roll before too long. I think the rights to descent though are so tied up that it'd be a legal nightmare no matter what for any company to try do any sort of new descent ...

Hah Suncho, not a bad idea, if I actually had that sort of money lying around to do it with. Heh.

If I did, buying another copy of it even at that insane price wouldn't be such a big deal. :)

Not a bad idea for someone else to pickup on mebbe. :)

Hey guys, thanks again for the responces. Thanks especially to Mobius, and Pheonix Red (On behalf of Krom). Checking in with Mobius first, as obtaining a proper CD set again would be great. But Mobius, if parting with the CD's is any problem, then it's good to know got this other option as well ...

Aye, I had had that thought too. But it seems that in their death throws, they're trying for all their worth to milk out some more money 'owed' to them from the Descent license. I'm just surprised a 'Descent-like' thing hasn't been released by someone else.. Although I guess after the flop that was ...

I haven't actually tried Interplay, just tried now though, seems their online store and whatnot is actually down at the moment, which I'm not too surprised about, considering at present they're battling off bankruptcy from what I know. I still have the manual in my manual box I think, so maybe they ...

Actually kurupt, yer nick is familiar.. But my memory isn't the best over that time any more, and I know I've come across other Corrupt's in my gaming travels since then. (After Kali/Kahn faded, I went over to the Quakeworld scene, played QW:Team Fortress mostly, still one of my favourites even ...

Obtaining Descent

Descent 3 especially. I am a legal owner of the descent series (descent 1-3, not the freespace games, never checked those out) and have over the years lost and/or damaged the disks for the games. I saw Descent 3 for sale rather cheaply at an online store, but being in NZ racks up the cost of it ...

I doubt it muchly that Interplay will ever officially allow the download of their old products. Frankly, I'll be surprised if anyone even bothers respond to you. However, all that said, I would love to see these for download again. I don't really think that the release of the source code then ...
