Hunt: SHODAN
Which, let's face it, as a PLAY reader, is pretty much a given.
System Shock casts you as a nameless hacker, blackmailed with the threat of prison by a megacorp executive into the incredibly sensible act of disengaging the ethical safety locks of SHODAN the artificial intelligence governing the corporation's space station dedicated to all kinds of shady biological and technological research. Believe it or not, things go very wrong very quickly and you awaken on the medical level some time later to discover that SHODAN has declared herself a machine god and reduced most of the station's inhabitants to gibbering cyber-horrors.
CYBER SNOOPER
From there matters are left more or less up to you to figure out. You'll be carrying out a lot of the activities beloved by the developers of PC immersive sims in the '90s and 'oos: snooping through people's private emails for locker and door codes; constantly managing your inventory of various types of grenades; and sneaking up behind robots to drop big mines in their paths. You'll also occasionally hop into cyberspace, turning the game into a simplistic shoot-'em-up that frankly always lasts a little longer than it should.
