  • System Shock 2 is now abandonware!

    LINK EDITED BY MING... No come on guys... it isn't "perfectly legal" While some may consider it abandoned, they still own the rights to it... and you all know Apolyton's policy on this subject... RIGHT



    This is a perfectly legal site(Abandonware mainly. The rest all have 'legal' content) It's a 250mb D/L so may not be for everyone!

    Don't use a download manager (or set to a single thread) as more than 1 d/l at once will result in your I.P being banned.

    This game really is amazing, come on, this game needs no introduction.

    have fun.....

    If I didn't already have the game, I would be downloading it right now. Such a superb game!

    I highly recommend this for anyone who doesn't have it already (and can download 250mb).
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

        Never played the game but I do have a cable modem. Is it worth the d/l?

          It STILL puts a most current games in it genre(s) to shame, it's kind of an atmospheric FPS/RPG with a great storyline

            FPS/RPG? I've never played Deus Ex either. How hard is that to get into?

              /me hits DinoDoc with a frying pan.
              Yes, it is definately worth the download! It has a great storyline, multiple different ways to play the game, an atmosphere unmatched by most current games. Since you have never played Deus Ex, comparisons are kind of hard to make. They exist in their own genre.

                It is one of the creepiest games ever. I won't say it's the creepiest game ever only because I haven't played them all.
                No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                  Bad news guys:

                  For the record, Jeff Brown (Executive President, Corporate Communications at EA) says:

                  "We pride ourselves in aggressively protecting our intellectual property rights, and we frequently pursue those who try to distribute our games without permission."

                  There are no titles in the Electronic Arts library that they consider to be abandonware.

                  Official word from Irrational: "No, System Shock 2 is not abandonware, please don't warez it"

                    Then buy it from whoever's selling it -- it really is worth it.

                    If I had to buy it again, and could only do so at the original price, I would.

                      Seriously this game is far and away the most atmospheric game I've ever played. Deus Ex is the same sort of game, if you liked that (and who doesn't) you'll like SS2.

                      Play it alone at night in a dark room and then post your pants cleaning bill for all to laugh at.

                        I predict this thread will be closed. We all know about HOTU, but you can't promote them, or mention them on 'poly, because they're not really legal. Which is a shame, but what can you do?

                              If someone on the UD boards provides a working buy link (or has already provided it), it'll soon be gone.

                              Anyways, it's not like that's the only way to get such games, you know....
