Screaming Monkeys

Someone asked me the other day what video game I was playing. I told them Unreal II. Finished it up, and it was pretty fun, but by no means innovative, just more of the same.

Which reminded me… remember how cool System Shock was? Well, I didn’t want to go back that far, so I loaded up Irrational’s System Shock 2 and have been playing it for the last week. It’s incredible. I have to say it’s the best video game I’ve ever played in terms of how much thought and attention to detail went into this game. Do yourself a favor and buy it. As a bonus, since it’s quite old (1998) your current machine should be able to run it with all the graphics maxed. Beware the screaming monkeys!
