System Shock 2

Better than Bioshock? Probably

Pros Cons
Awesome audio Ugly visuals
Innovative concepts
Loads of content
Engaging story

Before he rocked the world with BioShock, developer Ken Levine worked on this groundbreaking survival-horror shooter for the PC. It's extremely similar to BioShock: you're trapped on a doomed spaceship and must fight off the infected crewmembers while hoarding supplies and ammo and upgrading your abilities. Where System Shock II excels is its mastery of horror -- there's never been a scarier game. That's partly due to the amazing storyline and characters, and partly due to the skin-crawling audio design. If you enjoyed BioShock, you absolutely, positively have to play this (though expect to buy it off eBay). A real, honest classic in every way. I've played it through at least 4 times and it still creeps me out!
