You ever watch those art restoration YouTube channels? The guys who have some bristling kit of arcane brushes, tweezers, spudgers and sponges, and who put them to use painstakingly removing a fine layer of yellow —origin indeterminate—from the surface of masterpiece after masterp
The worst thing I've ever read was this: "Just make sure you turn the music off before you start." It was a throwaway forum post around the launch of Nightdive's System Shock 2 remaster —advice given to a new player asking for tips before their first playthrough... Read more.
We live in a work where remakes and remasters are a dime a dozen. Diablo 2 Resurrected, Resident Evil 4, Silent Hill 2: nostalgia sells, and we keep on buying. Earlier this year the titans over at Nightdive dropped a 25th anniversary remaster of System Shock 2 , which released to

System Shock 2 opens with playable character creation that also functions as a tutorial. Your trainee goggle-wearing badass walks off the street into a recruitment center and signs up to be a marine, or an engineer, or a psychic black ops agent. Then you choose where you'll be po

Tucked at the bottom of System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Edition's 1.2 patch notes is the whammy I'd been waiting for: "Added support for custom campaigns (fan missions)." Balance mods were good to go from launch, but now 'Shock 2's extensive back catalogue of modded missions and
In the latest episode of Nightdive Studios' Deep Dive podcast , System Shock 2 artist and industry veteran Nate Wells shared stories of his time working on the PC gaming classic—including how he sourced an unlikely art asset for the structures built by nasty worm aliens, The Man

Here's my confession: I think I prefer System Shock 2 to Deus Ex. Not that I don't love JC Denton like a son, mind you, it's just that SS2's creepy hallways and pitch-perfect antagonists have taken root in my heart forever... Read more.
