Background:

This game is going to be a unoffical continuation of System Shock 2. System Shock 2 is a great FPS/RPG where in the begining you start at a train station and as you start you have to pick a military branch. Each branch influnces what abilites you will have later. After you pick you have to 'train' for 3 years. Then you awaken on the von braun, where something VERY bad has happened. You have no memory of what happened, but you have a feeling it wasn't anything good. You go throughout the game collecting clues on what happened.
In this game you interact with your environment, you can hack a keypad, a security station, or a vending machine. You collect logs and listen to them. You can wear armor, upgrade your weapons, wear implants to enchance yourself.
