SS2 is one of the top 3 best immersive sims I've beaten, and in the top 3 best horror games as well. I hope this remaster brings it to the attention of younger players who weren't born yet when it originally released.

Doubtful as it is not a remake with modern standards in mind. It should still be a treat for fans of the original.

One of the best games of all time.

Really looking forward to this.

Bought the first remake aaaages ago, need to pull it out of the backlog and get going.

I said it in the other thread for the PC release, but I went into System Shock 2 for the first time with this remaster and it is an incredible game. I'm not sure what compromises the console versions will make in terms of control scheme, but the underlying game is magic. Stick it out for the first bit while you come to grips with the mechanics and you will be rewarded immensely.
