System Shock® 2 (1999)

Not as great as the hype!

In all honesty this game is simply not 'legendary', for the simple fact that it IS a sequel, and a sequel that does little to improve upon its predecessor. If it tried to do something new and innovative it would be one thing. However this is such a by the numbers sequel that it is appalling. It is massively let down by a plot that is almost a carbon copy of the first game. It is dull and tedious if you did play that. If this is your first time experiencing System Shock then by all means go for it, you will enjoy it. But if it is not then simply expect more of the same. I never completed SS2 originally. And have only just completed the GoG version, but I really had to push myself through some sections.
