| System Shock 2 | Electronic Arts;Night Dive Studios (Looking Glass Studios;Irrational Games) | 1999 | The developer desired to create a Linux version of this game but did not have access to the source code.

Further reports suggest that a stolen version of the source code may be in the possession of an illegal hacker.

Like System Shock 1, there will be persistent levels (i.e., drop an item on one level, and you could go back later to retrieve it), gameplay elements like logs, inventory, skills, persistent world, leaning, hacking, RPG elements, multiple weapons and enemies, and a compelling storyline. Unlike most other first person shooters, the purpose of System Shock was not to kill everything in sight; nor was it a "find the key to move onto the next level" game. The plot was always present, but not so confining as in traditional shooters—there was almost always more than one task to accomplish. Levels were realistically designed and had logical reasons behind them. It is the principle of System Shock 2 to continue this game design." | labelimagesubject |

| The Precursors | Russobit-M;Game Factory Interactive (Deep Shadows) | 2009 | There's an unofficial patch for the western release that replaces a lot of the sounds with the ones from Russian release (also thus "adding" voices [rather, restoring their Russian voice-overs] for all characters rather than only very few of them) as well as fixing certain issues. This patch is also available [url=http://www.beamdog.com/products/the-precursors-fan-improvement-pack]as free DLC[/url] on Beamdog in case you got the game from them.***Precursors, predecessors, the legend of the galaxy... Who among the existing races are carrying their genes? The worlds of the galaxy are beautiful, unique and dangerous. Some of them are inhabited, some are deserted, some lie in ruins, others are just smugglers trans-shipment stations. Some worlds are at the beginning of their evolution, other are falling into decay. Only when you'll pass through all of these worlds, when you'll feel the heat of blazing lava-seas and the chilling cold of dark abysses, when you'll see stark heavens and red skies, you will realize the real power of nature. Only when you'll meet corrupt judges, mendacious politicians, unselfish protectors and cruel tyrants, you'll understand the passions of society. Only when you'll reach unexplored sectors of the galaxy and come across wonderful natural phenomenons, when you'll fly through the tail of a comet or dive into a mysterious portal, then you'll perceive the infinite depth and diversity of the universe. Nobody knows what exactly this journey will comprise, but we can assure you that it will be unforgettable... "Precursors" is a new project of Deep Shadows. The game action takes place in space and on the surface of various planets. The genre of the game is freeplay RPG with FPS and space sim combat elements. "Precursors" and "White Gold: War In Paradise" are developed using the Vital Engine 3. It has shader 3.0 support and features various post rendering effects like HDR, motion blur and others. In comparison with the Vital Engine 2 the physics system has been improved and moreover, two of the main features of the engine are destructible objects, which will be found everywhere in the games, and support of one huge unified playing area. You will fight your enemies in space as well as on the surface of various planets. You will be able to work for different factions and carry out their quests to earn money, which is quite essential for your hero. The money will give you the opportunity to buy new weapons, make technical upgrades or repair your damaged spaceship. You can explore a planet's surface using a wide choice of different vehicles, but in space you will use only one ship which will be given to you at the beginning of the game. RPG stats will allows you to upgrade not only the personal characteristics of your hero but the technical abilities of your spaceship as well. [Deep Shadows] | labelimagesubject |

| The War Z | Hammerpoint Interactive | 2012 | There has been rather loud controversy surrounding this game since its launch, to even such point that the game is no longer sold at Steam and Valve has promised to refund any who had bought it via Steam who want that. The game is still sold on the game's own site and likely will return to be sold on Steam as well, as soon as Valve is satisfied with their negotiations with the developer.

| Killing Floor 2 | Tripwire Interactive | 2016 | Takes the formula of the first game and pumps it to a more gory and intense zombie limbfest. Pros: -Great enemy AI (for a zombie, don't expect advanced calculus) -Light vs. dark places and itchy placement of objects to hit with them in your escape. -Good and simple interface. -You can be the white englishcotish friend of Grandpa "Beetches" Freeman. Cons: -Its kind of repetitive, even for its variety of weapons. -Scarce vertical action situations. 6 of 10 | labelimageminimize |
