The above is a screenshot I took when I wrote the world first review for PC Zone magazine, way back in 1999. I like it because it’s simple, atmospheric, and quintessentially System Shock 2.

Actually, the above is a rare grab of me playing the game using a Psionic Amplifier (that spherical thing in the protagonist’s hand). I rarely ever played with it, preferring the shooting route whenever I played System Shock 2.

I think I’ve played through the entire game on four of five separate occasions. It’s always an enjoyable and tense blast.

Got the Environmental Regulator up and running.

For The Many, not The Few…

System Shock 2 is a cheery game!
