System Shock® 2 (1999)
Description
"Remember, it is my will that guided you here. It is my will that gave you your cybernetic implants, the only beauty in that meat you call a body. If you value that meat... you will do as I tell you."
The cult classic sci-fi horror FPS-RPG has returned.
You awake from the cold chill of your cryo-tube to discover cybernetic implants grafted to your flesh and the crew of the starship Von Braun slaughtered. The infected roam the halls, their screams and moans beckoning you to join them as the rogue artificial intelligence known as SHODAN taunts and ridicules your feeble attempt to unravel the horrifying mystery of the derelict starship Von Braun.
Your Training Has Prepared You For This.
- Choose from 3 specialized branches of the military to utilize unique skills, weaponry, and paranormal psionic powers.
- Upgrade and enhance your skills to improve hacking, weapon proficiency, and psionic abilities.
- Discover cryptic audio logs, encounter ghostly apparitions and conduct research to give you the advantage in combat and unlock exotic weapons and items.
- Play with up to three friends in multiplayer co-op (co-op works in Windows only)

Spectacular
Even in 2024, System Shock 2 holds up extremely well. I would hazard to say it is superior to most games released today.

"Cyberpunk thriller!"
I got to admit I wasnt able to play this game ever before. I got it when it was new but it was to psychically demanding for me to play. The tension just wasnt bearable, so I eventually uninstalled it and never got it again. This never happened to me in a game before nor after, Im a horror lover and I overall enjoy being scared, but SS2 was way too much for me back then (I was like 15 when it came out), I was holding my breath for like 30 minutes and then I had to quit for another 30 minutes to get some relief. Fast forward 2013 - I saw it on GoG for 10 bucks. Got some money to spare I decided to give it a go and a few minutes later I was already watching the intro once again after all these years. That was three days ago and I wasnt able to work since then. Im totally hooked to this game, loving every inch of it. It is just as scary and psychically demanding as ever before but it has opposite effect on me, it doesnt let me think about anything else. Im even loving the graphics, it havent aged a tiny bit in my opinion. More polygon count and all those modern graphics tricks would actually make the game worse, it is perfect as it is. Best spent ten bucks ever!
