As you explore the Von Braun, the space ship that System Shock 2 takes place in, you come across body modifications that grant you special powers. I think it's the only horror game I've ever played that's struck the perfect balance between giving a player power to survive a nightmare situation while also making them feel fragile. System Shock 2 is a revolution of a game and my favorite work of horror except for Ridley Scott's Alien. Horrific mutants roaming hallways with metal pipes, ready to beat anyone they come across to death. A maniacal artificial intelligence run amok. Be sure to come back next week on Wednesday at noon CST for #2Ī creepy spaceship adrift in space.
