   When I originally found the dxx-rebirth project I got the data from a torrent   
   since that was all I could find. I later found Descent and Descent II on   
   gog.com so I bought it there. They were removed from gog.com a short time   
   later and I don't know if it has or will return there or not.   
      
   I beleive the dxx-rebirth software will work with the Descent shareware and   
   Decent II demo data as well and IIRC that is available at the dxx-rebirth.com   
   website.   
      
   There is a new game along the lines of descent, a continuation I think by the   
   original developers (I am not certain of that). Last I looked it was just   
   starting up. I haven't yet but I have meant to look that up and see what is up   
   there today. I forget at the moment what it was called but a search will   
   likely turn it up. It did look interesting to me.
