I recently (don't lie you scumbag it was today) installed System Shock 2 after finding it under a pile of dust submerged boxes and a random assortment paraphernalia. I had bought it about 6 years ago, not realizing what a gem I had just picked up. Needless to say at the age of 8 years old I made it to the first room and failed to realize that the key code for the door I was stuck at was on a virtual CD I held in my hand.
Now I have always considered myself as a bit of a bad man when It comes to being scared by games but never did I think I would be defeated by a 10 year old Psyco-shooter.
I played the first level today and I was
bricking it. The first couple of rooms are empty aside the occasional explosion and fault with the electrical appliances around you (which make you jump EVERY TIME), but when I opened the Medi station slide door I was shocked to find a mutant beating a corpse repeatedly with a crowbar. I literally screamed, turned away and sprinted for the opposite side of the room. The mutant leapt up chased me across the walkway and cornered me next to a door which had (in the last five seconds) locked itself. Wailing in terror I swung meakly with my wrench and actually managed to make contact with its head, killing it with a single blow. It groaned and fell to the floor, making a resounding thud as it did so. I curled up into a ball and looked across the room at the blood splattered corpse on the walkway and realised that it could have been me....
