In fact, many consider the first BioShock entry to be a spiritual follow-up to the cult science fiction series, with the former being spearheaded by Ken Levine's Irrational Games outfit, which served as a co-developer on System Shock 2 along with the now-defunct Looking Glass Studios.
The original System Shock and its sequel were not successful as far as the market was concerned, but they left an impact on the industry in a way that's still being felt today.
While it didn't make a massive impact in terms of sales, the sequel to 1994's System Shock has gone down as a sci-fi game that was well ahead of its time with its haunting and oppressive world combined with environmental storytelling.īoth games introduced the world to one of the most iconic AI characters in all of gaming in the guise of Shodan, long before Portal's GLaDOS or Halo's Cortana came along. For those who have been waiting to see what the upcoming Enhanced Edition of the legendary System Shock 2 looks like, a recent trailer shows off the work that's been put into this improved version, which boasts overall better quality visuals.
