Remake for PC classic System Shock is now Kickstarter

One of PC’s biggest classics could be getting an extensive, modern overhaul.

Developer Nightdive Studios has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter for a complete remake of System Shock, the classic role-playing game/first-person shooter hybrid for PC. System Shock, which originally came out for PC in 1994, isone of the most revolutionary games of its time for its use of 3D graphics to create an creepy, story-rich environment. It inspired dozens of other titles, including the direct sequel System Shock 2 and the spiritual successor BioShock. Warren Spector, who produced the original, is working on System Shock 3.
