Polygon has released a video, showcasing almost 9 minutes of gameplay footage from the remastered version of System Shock. System Shock will be powered by the Unity Engine and Night Dive Studios aims to create a new game true to the classic experience, ‘keeping all the things you loved, while updating the user interface and graphics to use a modern day engine.’ Enjoy!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”

Demo to be released tomorrow, on my bday. *-*
Passing on the video, going to wait and experience it for myself.
BTW I still have a key for System Shock 2 (GOG) if anyone missed the sale promo.
There was a promo?!?!
Yes, SS2 was free for 48 hours. It was also only redeemed through their Galaxy client to ensure a stress test on the servers. 🙂
Well, wish I had caught that. Never played system shock 1 or 2.
Have a GOG account? If not, make one and reply with your username and I’ll send you a key. 😉
ZEROAX1S That’s my account. Don’t know if all caps is a stylistic thing or if I was stupid enough to actually do that.
Just sent, through chat. Have fun 😉
A demo of a game nowadays? Nice! A rare sight. And they’re doing this before the release! So it’s doubly cool.
Yep, certainly will help the Kickstarter. 🙂
Can’t wait to try it.
Judging by the footage it is shorter than the demo of the original demo back from the 90s.
STOP SPOILING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Expected though, supposedly to help the KS pitch and demos being a rarity.
HBD buddy 😀 your giving gifts in your birthday ? you should receive one, tell me, what do you want ?
Thanks Amir!
I want, erm… world peace? Pffff hahahaha
thats nice i would prefer the economy to go back as it was before 2008.
At least yours is grounded in reality.
I can give you that, use cheats, infinite money,influence points and one turn build and instant research, then attack all the cities and make puppets out of them, they will be yours and no one have to fight anymore then wait for a new game called BeyondEarth then get upset about it’s quality and kill everyone in Civ5 so no one can reach space and undo time.
Yeah I’ve forgot about the way to solve humanity problems “no humanity=no problems” :))
Happy birthday for tomorrow mate. 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
Assuming its your B’day now.
Happy Birthday buddy.
Thanks man! 🙂
Happy birthday, have a good one.
Thanks man, it wasn’t good, but it had cake so at least it ended on a sweet note.
Heh, it never is. At least once you strike adulthood. Sigh. But yeah, cake’s always good! Unless you have dia-beetus. Now I’m being cynical.
It looks fantastic.
Oh god, I love it!
It looks perfect, it is exactly like the original, well with some different enemy and weapon placement to show off the demo. So 90s cyberpunk, they kept everything they did not remove anything.
Why does polygon get these exclusives with game footage when they cant play for sht is beyond me.
It was probably the same idiot who played in their Doom video.
their political correctness agenda gave them a strong footing in the industry probably. while they are biased toward anything related to political correctness, at least they don’t seem biased toward certain platforms unlike IGN or Gamespot.
in this case though i won’t be surprised if others have their own demos by now as well.
20% of people down voted it as well, really sad.
Amazing.
Wow, this looks way better than I ever imagined it would. And the use of ambient sound is perfectly done.
Holy crap this one has to be the first faithful remake/reboot of a game EVER.
That’s the same engine used in some mobile games.
What’s that got to do with anything, Unreal Engine is used for mobile games.
This makes me so excited for System Shock 3. OtherSide Entertainment (original creators of System Shock) + Night Dive Studios (Guys who know what they are doing) combo is pretty good. Was getting sick of mediocre Bioshock games, so called “spiritual successor to System Shock”.
I’m going to be buying this.
That’s awesome its just like the original game. I was just playing this (the original) two days ago off my GoG account. lol. Im gonna buy this day one of release.
