Hey there.

Welcome to Freaky Little Hobbit Heaven.

Well this is my first blog, and it’s looking pretty empty at the moment, so I need all you bloggers out there to help me fill it up.  Lol.

I want to start by talking about an old computer game.  Do you remember System Shock?  It’s a fantastic rpg \ adventure \ fps type game about a hacker trapped on a space station.  The Artificial Intelligenge that controls the space station has gone insane, and is determined to wipe out humanity. 

Well the game is pretty old now, and it’s very tricky to get working on today’s computers.  Luckily, there IS a version out there that works on machines with Windows 95 all the way up to Windows Vista.   Strangebedfellows has ‘rebuilt’ the game using the original source code, so it works on modern machines.  You can find an excellent review for it on Reloaded (I may be a wee bit biased here, lol) - http://www.reloaded.org/download/System-Shock-Portable/369/ 

You can also download the game itself from Strangebedfellows website - http://www.strangebedfellows.de/index.php/topic,211.0.html

Have fun defeating Shodan.  Hehe. 

Until next time…
