SS1

My mom recently got me System Shock 1. It'll be arriving in the mail any day. How does it compare to System Shock 2? Are the graphics the same?

System shock one was early 1990's.. the graphics are totally different... most likely you may have to run SS1 from DOS

I dunno bout Xp but on the 2k disc theres a tools section, if you install it theres an extra compatibility program (rather than the compatibility layer properties thing) i run speedball, sam and max, monkey island 1+2 no bohter through that so id have thought there would be a way to do it
