An improved version of System Shock 2 is in the works. Nightdive Studios, which is currently working on remastering the first System Shock, announced it’s also working on System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition during a Twitch stream last night celebrating the game’s 20th anniversary.

"It's chess meets Hamlet. Okay, maybe not Hamlet. But it's a start." Ken Levine, of BioShock and System Shock 2 fame, wrote an interesting review of Shadow of Mordor this week in which he praises its novel ability to tell stories that players "build for themselves simply by playing the game." Read it over at Matter.

Who would've guessed that this is what the Little Sisters in BioShock started out as? Eurogamer just published a thorough report on the origins of the seminal first person shooter that's worth a close read.

L-l-look at you, hacker. System Shock 2 is finally coming to GOG (countdown at the top!). [via RPS] UPDATE: It's out!
