' The Hacker,' caught breaking into the mainframe of the Tri-Optimum Corporation, is offered a chance at freedom and a prime-grade neural interface by CEO Edward Diego, in return for performing nonstandard modifications to the Sentient Hyper-Optimized Data Access Network (SHODAN), the AI on the corporation's space station. A sequel, System Shock 2, was released on August 11, 1999.

It wasn't exactly a smashing success in sales, but it was massively influencial and spawned one of the most memorable villains in all of video games. It's essentially finished now, so don't hold back, though though a future release will bring remade movies.System Shock by Looking Glass Studios is a groundbreaking First-Person Shooter/ Immersive Sim with Survival Horror and RPG Elements set in a Cyberpunk future. You can download the whole thing on ModDB. The mod was first released in February, but comes to our attention now thanks to a new patch. It's all very fanfic-y, but you're not going to grumble about having another SS2 campaign to play, are you? It casually ties SS2 into the world of BioShock a bit too. Delacroix fills an Elizabeth-y role, popping up as some sort of time ghost to help you out and explain things. System Shock Infinite continues SS2's campaign with the hacker and Delacroix (both with new lines voiced by fans) trying to break a time loop, rewriting history, dropping through rifts, and discovering your many looped lives. The SS2 mod continues the game's story in a very Binfinite-y way, dabbling in time loops and reality tears, and even joins you with Marie Delacroix as a companion of sorts. And it has an answer: System Shock Infinite. What would happen if System Shock 2 and Binfinite loved each other very much and wanted to share that love with the world? That's a better question. Which would win in a fight: System Shock 2 or BioShock Infinite? Oh these petty arguments and spewings of bile come round every so often thanks to the weird compulsion to rank and rate everything in the gameosphere.
