System Shock 2 is now on Good Old Games

[Bjorn Against]

11. I actually just read that Dead Space was originally being developed as System Shock 3

I thought Dead Space was a very good game, but I am glad they changed the title because it was not System Shock. I do see the similarities between the two games, but System Shock was not a third person action game and us System Shock fans would have been very disappointed to see the series turned into that even if it was still a good game.

Hopefully the fact that they previously were invested in making a System Shock 3 but only changed the title when it became clear they were not going to be true to the original is a good sign that there may be interest in bringing the license back. Hopefully this re-release on PC along with the coming release of BioShock Infinite will revive interest in the franchise and a real sequel can finally happen. If they could get Warren Spector on the team then I would be in heaven.
