My Thoughts
I was in my in-between gaming years when System Shock and the sequel was first released, so I missed the originals. The GO Cast brings these games up with fond memories, so I’m thrilled to be granted an opportunity to play System Shock 2 with the enhancements that are promised for our current generation of consoles and PC.
It takes place in the future and in space. It’s in the horror genre about a rogue AI hellbent on destroying mankind! All the pieces that would certainly pique my interest and guarantee a purchase.
