You are the Soldier G65434-2, assigned to the military vessel. To accompany it, the United National Nominate (EarthGov?) sends their own ships, the Rickenbacker, which is attached to the civvie craft. Tri-Optimum Corporation has build the Von Braun, the first human ship capable of FTL travel. Yet the hacker intervened and stopped her.

That went as well as it could be expected – the AI got crazy, imagined herself to be a goddess and tried to destroy Earth. In System Shock 1, a hacker was hired to bypass the restraints of an AI called Shodan. That means that every youngun’ lacking proper education in historical video games can try this masterpiece from the comfort of their computer – and without any mad fiddling to make it run! Did System Shock withstand the test of time? You bet your digital ass it did! Hell yeah, reader baby, now we rollin’! GOG.com, the lovable Polish scamps, have just included System Shock 2 into their roster of games.
