System Shock 2, has modern controls, and has mods to make it look better than it did when it first came out, so there was no problems ever replaying it. Plus no support for higher resolution doesn’t make things any better. Playing it nowadays, however, is hard even with DOSBox I have gotten so used to mouselook controls, or simply, modern PC first person controls. System Shock was one of those DOS games that stay with you… and with it’s sibling, System Shock 2, it gave me, a computer geek who likes tinkering with programming languages, who is in love with the thought of the future and the technology it promises, together, those two games threw in a cyberpunk universe, filled with all the tech I want, the feeling of being a cool cyberpunk hacker that can also wield a gun or two, puzzles that only computer geeks will really appreciate (anyone can solve them, they aren’t too hard, but a computer geek will see the tiny details that make them smile), and a lot more.īoth games stuck with me, but if we are talking about DOS games that I will forever love, it is System Shock. And when it finally hit Steam a few days ago, I didn’t hesitate to purchase it right then and there, plus with a 20% off at that time, I was all the more willing to buy it. When System Shock Enhanced Edition was first announced for GoG, I was happy yet saddened because it wasn’t immediately released for Steam, my preferred platform, I had to wait a month for it to be available in Steam.
