A double-CD pack of Descent II (complete with 3dfx and Rendition graphics card patches) and its Vertigo Series expansion. A extras pack released after the success of Descent II, Vertigo series adds 23 missions and, as a bonus, provides some of the music tracks from the original Descent II in Redbook Audio format (plays in a regular CD player). It also comes bundled with the Mission Builder II pack. The new missions have added effects not found in the original as well as creative map and enemy design.

Descent II, a single-player, underground space shooter and sequel to Descent, offers both single-player missions and a cooperative multiplayer mode over the Internet for up to eight players. Having rid the mines of alien robots in Descent and returned to the space station for just rewards, the corporation surprises you by invoking a sneaky 72-hour clause in your contract. Seems as if you must now embark on a search and destroy mission to the Zeta Aquilae system to strike at the very source of the enemy robots. To avoid jail and loss of earnings, you grudgingly accept.Descent II offers new weapons and tools to blast the enemy and clear the way to the Alien Robot Stronghold as you try to cleanse the universe of the alien menace. Along the way, you\'re joined by your guide-bot, which scouts ahead to help you find enemies, orbs and other items. Enemies employ deadly weaponry, and thief-bots try to steal your weapons and power-ups. Multiplayer options include a real-time camera that allows you to look through your partners\' eyes or the use of surveillance cameras in the mines.Both the gamepad and joystick can be custom tailored to personal preferences, and small, non-explosive darts open doors as you blast your way through the alien mines. Descent II offers 30 levels in six different world environments of fire, ice and the alien base. Ten new weapons include the helix and gauss cannons for use against 30 new robot enemies.

For DOS/Windows (via DOSBox) [*Please review compatibility/platform sections]
ITEM IS: USED - CD IN SLEEVE

WHAT YOU GET:

This sale is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what\'s stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.

IMAGES:

All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read \"WHAT YOU GET\" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.

COMPATIBILITY:

Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words \"system requirements\" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher\'s errors.

PLATFORM:

Stated within the sale is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.

64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.

Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn\'t support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.

MEDIA FORMAT:

Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5\" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25\" floppy drive.

SHIPPING:

We typically ship all items out within 2-4 business days after payment is received. In regards to the stated shipping and handling, remember that these costs include more than just postage. We combine shipping and handling, with each additional item after the first just $2 more. Message us for an invoice if doesn\'t automatically adjust it.

International buyers not shipping to an address within the U.S. can expect their orders to take anywhere from 5 days to 4 weeks to be received, depending on how fast/well USPS is moving. Additionally, international orders typically have to go through governmental customs, which can delay the arrival process. Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer\'s responsibility. Please check with your country\'s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to offerding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges.
