Dark Star One

So I'm at Target over the weekend and walk down the computer aisle just to browse. I saw the game and it was only $10 so I grabbed it thinking it would be a nice distraction. It was a bit odd getting used to the controls, but once I got the hang of it...it's (and bear in mind that this is coming from someone who dislikes games that aren't text-based) pretty sweet! Anyone else play it?

Yes. It's very similar to the old Descent from many years back.

I finished the game, it was OK but for space flight combat games I think you can't beat the old XWing/TIE Fighter games. The ones that were remade for windows 95 are great
