That's because Swedish is the native language of magic and witchcraft. No joke.

OH YEAH!? Well I'm using 3 yottabytes of two 2YB hard drives. I'm going to buy a third tomorrow when I start downloading SHODAN to my PC so I can take over the Internet. That's what happens when you're an evil nerd with ambitions of world domination.
yeah well I'm about to build a cluster of 20TerraQuad drives.. so you know.. fuck you :D

Oh yeah and when the particle accelerator arrives I'll download the interwebz over 9000 times :D

My computer doesn't need updating, it can play Oblivion, so I'm happy.

It's generally accepted that everyone on the internet who plays games knows who SHODAN is. Although really it's understandable that a lot of younger people *don't* know.

SHODAN is an evil AI from the System Shock games. Actually, I just played System Shock 2 for the first time a year or so ago. SHODAN is rather frightening 8-[

Morrowwind is a bit outdated, but I spent my time playing in once upon a time.

And then there was the Cliff racers...

Flyin' Flyin' Cliff Racer! Cliff Racer! Flyin' Flyin'.

And someone doesn't know who SHODAN is?

Kee715, I've lost all hope in you.

Oh, from System Shock? I really need to read more about those games...

And thank you for explaining, I was actually expecting more posts like these for some reason:

No, you really need to play system shock 2, there are no valid excuses not to. There are valid ones against playing the first one (like, lack of mouse aim) but not for the 2nd. Its a better version of Bioshock, with a more logical theme. Seriously; just check the intro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXPn6wcsUmk. The first sentence is legendary.

I liked Bioshock, I just disliked its short length. And I do have one reason for not playing SS2, that is the fact that I lack money and refuse to download a pirated game. I have wanted to get SS2 for some time now after playing Bioshock and hearing that it is a spiritual sequel to SS2. I also heard that Deus Ex is a lot like it, so that makes me want it even more.

But unfortunately my Dad lost his job relatively recently, so any money is going towards food, water, electricity, and taxes rather than new video games.

Maybe that post will assuage you? Otherwise the game should be Dirt cheap by now, a dollar or two for a used copy in the hands of someone to doesn't realise what a gem they possess :)
Also I think you should pirate it, since the developer is long gone anyway.
