Like the System Shock 3 we never had
If you enjoyed System Shock and/or Bioshock, you're almost guaranteed to like this game. It's like a mix of the two, with slightly more of the former. Downsides include a few glitches with objectives and an ending that somewhat undermines the impact of the choices you've made. Also, it's supposed to be designed for "play your way" a la Deus Ex, but I found stealth to be impractical a lot of the time. Not enough pathways for sneaking around obstacles & enemies. And some enemies respawn the moment you leave a level, which is annoying if you return soon.
Still, these complaints are outweighed by a great setting and solid story.
