Alex,

   Delta V has been out for over a year now I think.  The only place you'll 
find it now is probably the bargain bin.  It's kind of an odd game.  It's not a 
flightsim... it's kind of like that old Electronic Arts game POWERDROME only on 
some kind of hallucinogenic drugs or something!  :)  I have only a 486/66 and 
the game played so incredibly FAST that I had to give up on it.  It's like one 
"trench run" from Star Wars after another.  Obstacles and enemy ships are 
coming at you constantly... and they're coming SO FAST that you really don't 
have time to even react to them.  If you're really into arcade shoot-em-ups you 
might enjoy it.  It's not a terrible game, it's just more of a gamecart game.  
It's kind of like that Super Nintendo game STAR FOX, only not as imaginative, 
but... with better graphics! :)  Every level is... just another psychedelic 
trench.  I can't really recommend it... DESCENT or TERMINAL VELOCITY are light 
years better than Delta V.
