The Genesis Of System Shock 2

Irrational Games, creators of BioShock, uncovered a long-lost treasure the other day: a sketchbook, full of concept art for the game that got the studio rolling, System Shock 2.

In a cute touch (and a sign of how long it’s been since the game was released), the images are actual sketches on actual paper. With stains and everything.

Their publication is the latest in a series of neat features on the developer’s website, including a great podcast. Nice to see a developer putting some genuine effort into providing interesting content to their fans instead of just spamming a blog or a Twitter account all day.
