Hope they also got them to run under OSX. Will buy SS2 either way though.

My system is shocked.
I wonder what they mean "ported/updated by"? Hoping that means just getting it running, I do not want a modded game. I can do that myself.
This release is the original version in all its glory. Fans will be able to apply the mods they know and love, and hopefully we may see some new mods from the community in the future.
Edit: I don't see anything in the RPS interview that suggests the original is releasing alongside 2.
RPS: Will there be any extras included with the GOG download? Soundtracks and the like?
Rambourg: Yes, indeed. With the help of Stephen, weve pulled out all of the stops to make this a virtual collectors edition. In addition to the soundtrack, the GOG.com version of the game will have concept art, maps of the Von Braun, a interview with Ken Levine, the first pitch document, and much more.
I don't think anyone would disagree with that.System Shock 2 shits on Bioshock from a great height. Owe it to yourself to play it.

Any word on the Steam release?
I'm a patient man, sounds good."Soon" after the GoG release, which, if Squeenix's Steam->GoG release schedule is any indication, means six months from now (some time in August).

SS1 > SS2
So if this thing is getting released again , why isn't there a system shock 3???and remake of the first one for example?
That'd be pretty messy, there's plenty of item management in SS2.controller support for SS2?
The IP rights situation are still pretty messed up it seems. I'd imagine any publisher looking for a big release will find it too much hassle, as opposed to creating a new IP like Dead Space.
Regardless there's no way any publisher will do the SS franchise justice in today's market.
