    A must play, with just the best antagonist. I am single because Shodan set the standards so high.

    The old System Shock was not the easiest game to get immersed in and that was mostly due to its controls. The overhaul makes the game infinitely more enjoyable simply by virtue of no longer needing to struggle with these.

    It is still a classic, and one that planted some incredibly important seeds for the fps genre as a whole. This enhanced edition brings all that back and adds a little more, but unfortunately the control system hasn’t aged well.

    So good to see Night Dive Studios revive this classic and make it purchasable and playable again. If you've ever uttered the words 'cyberpunk' or like games that have the word 'shock' or "Deus Ex" in them, give this one an honest try -- it may not look the part in screenshots, but it's a legend.
