That's spectacular! The original looks dated and a bit barren by today's standards, obviously, so this is very, very welcome.

Now, if they can streamline the controls...

Can't wait to dive back in after all these years.

The difference between the original to remake is pretty big: http://www.polygon.com/2015/11/25/9801434/system-shock-remake-first-look-art

If you're wondering what platforms, look no further:

Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Holy crap! It looks amazing. Never played it before either.



I've never played, but I'm looking forward to this.



Looks pretty badass.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

That looks really good, so glad these full remakes of PC classics are popping up lately.

Also nice to see some old titles like Diablo II and Warcraft III getting support patches after all these years, I'm suspecting Starcraft I to get a patch with this latest trend at this point.

Great looking remake of one of the best and most influential games of the 90s with one of the best villains ever...

and she was also part of the Boston band Tribe (that's her on lead vocals in this song, though she wasn't the regular female lead vocalist of the band): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_9LF4beHOw

Her Tribe co-member Greg LoPiccolo co-wrote the soundtrack for System Shock:

It looks really good. I never played it back in the days, so I'd gladly jump in now. Its an important game after all.
