The two lines that best capture the tone of our System Shock remake review are identical.\

Pros: "Fastidiously accurate recreation of the original game" Cons: "Fastidiously accurate recreation of the original game"

Yeah renovation seems like a better word.

I like your use of the word "renovation". After playing both versions, the remake has the "spirit" of the original, and was clearly crafted with love, but it is not the original.

What is everyone's opinion of PowerSlave Exhumed, another Night Dive Studios release? As I understand it, PowerSlave Exhumed combined the PC and Console versions of the original game. Is this a renovation as well? The game feels very authentic to the original but I haven't played the original console version in 20+ years. :).
