    If you loved the original and want to go back some scifi horror nostalgia then i highly recommend you get the enhanced version as the changes are aesthetic and don’t take away from the game you loved as a kid.

    One of the best cyberpunk games you can play. The controls feel a little weird for the first half-hour but then become tons of fun. TheOne of the best cyberpunk games you can play. The controls feel a little weird for the first half-hour but then become tons of fun. The controls allow you to feel like you are actually playing as the main character.

    Ohh the good old classic that nobody played because System shock 2 was so much better. Okay in all seriousness this is a pretty good game.

    Pros:

    -The atmosphere is top notch. Everything feels like is trying to kill you and it really looks like an abandoned spaceship. It is downright perfect

    Cons:
    -This is a nitpick but i seriously can't stand the graphics. They looks so bad but that's to be expected from a game from 1992/1993

    Overall System shock is a great game that will kick any so called hardcore player in it's ass and overall deserves to get recognized more like it's younger brother System shock 2.    … Full Review »
