I am giving this game a late review, as I registered a new account on gamespot. This game is defiantly high up there with the greats, till now no single game has given me the thrill and adrenalin that system shock gave me and still does.

I have played this game more times than I can remember and have yet to find a single crack in its perfect shell. Some might say I am going a bit "over the top" with the praise, but truth be told this is just a fabulous game.

If you recently played Bioshock and thought it was amazing, go to the bargain bin of the nearest retailer and pick this up. You will soon understand where Bioshock gets its thrills and praise from.

If you have played Bioshock then you have undoubtedly met the fabled Big Daddy, well hands down, System Shock 2 is just that... It is the Big Daddy ....hell its the whole family tree in comparison.

Xerxes wants you to play this now!
