Spookin' With Scoops: System Shock 2

I will fight people who talk whack about Josh Randall!

They should make a video of Patrick building his computer. I always like watching those.

To make this complete, Ryan needs to be there in the background. Riffling through Patrick's shit asking "Where'd you get this?" "HEY! Can I play with this?" "WOW look at this!"

I hope Pat's mic-breathing won't be an issue throughout the video- it's kinda bringing me down. Otherwise, hope to see more of System Shock 2!

At first I thought that wrench was a tiny hand on a wooden stick.

How can I get this to run on a Windows 7 PC?

Nice Suprise

On one of the podcasts or a TNT (can't recall exactly) he said he's going to build it with the Tested guys, so I'm sure it will end up on video either here or there.

Should be on both sites.

Ahh, pursegate 2012.

@patrickklepek Just so you know, there were people in that chat who genuinely thought that was what you guys needed to do. They saw the purse, they saw a prompt, they figured it had to be something to do with advancement. Ah well, misunderstanding all around :)

I'm glad Patrick won't be doing any more of these until he gets a good PC. Frankly, I think he should have never started this feature until that item was checked off the list.

You should do Alone in the Dark. That game is what Resident Evil is based on.http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/alone_in_the_dark

Posting just one track doesn't cut it. :)

If only Patrick had known how Friday 13th would troll him to death... literally*.

*Not literally literally.

The viewers' reaction during the stream was disgraceful...

How so? I was there live for half of it before I got to tired. It didn't seem overly crazy or mean. Mostly normal Giant Bomb chat. Did things get worse?

They made fun of the late '90s techno. EVERYONE was demanding the music be muted. Kids today don't even know what real cyberpunk is...

That's kind of a shame, the soundtrack of SS2 is really great and it's one of my favorite parts of the game.

Patrick kind of seems like he's annoyed by it as well. I guess the younger people can't appreciate the soundtrack because they didn't play SS2 when it was first released. I dunno, I still think it's pretty good.

That first track is really overbearing when you're playing the game for the first time.

The rest of it is great, however.

@runcrash: yea building a computer is a lot of fun, even more so when you dont have to spend the money on parts and you can just watch someone else do it :P

I like the SS2 soundtrack but for gods sake, turn it off immediately.

@FZackM: I'm 21 I hate techno, but I LOVE the SS2 soundtrack. Just personal taste I guess.

I have to agree with everyone that dislikes the soundtrack in game. It seems to largely take away from the atmosphere and makes me wonder what they were thinking...

@Mofaz: This comment is cancer.

yessssss

this is fast becoming my... well, my second favourite feature, anyway. random ass pc games will always be first for me :]

but this is great. thanks for doing these @patrickklepek

@Bourbon_Warrior: Agreed.

Awesome! Keep up the good work, Patrick!

I like Patrick, he can get a little pretentious true, but he is the most engaged with the community, and he seems to really enjoy video games. He gets really excited in most everything he is in. And I would much rather him get excited about games then some of the other guys go in to a game wanting it to be bad.

That 8 FPS gameplay.

Which is why it was so great, for me at least. I was intense finding my way though MedSci, fending off hybrids begging for death, with that music bounding in my ears. It never let me relax.

patrick, I'm so glad you are doing these streams. thoroughly enjoying them.

please don't give the chat to Brad, Patrick :(

No more spookin with macs?

You are the worst member of the GiantBomb staff.

With more respect than you deserve, shut up.

You know none of the Giant Bomb staff personally, and Patrick has done a better job in his field than you'll ever do in yours. I think Patrick deserves a ton for all the work & dedication he gives to everything he does, so why do you deem him the "worst member of the GiantBomb staff?"

he is the least entertaining member of the staff then. Plus hes not really a great journalist. Middling maybe.

I think..I'm in love...... With SHODAN!!!!

After all, all those endearing terms of marraige after your spouse has gotton to know you all so well..

INSECT!

WORM!

Oh it feeels sooo good!

Dont like the content? Dont watch the content. Let the people who do enjoy it do so without your useless input.

I've always wanted to go back and play this game, this video may have finally tipped me over the edge to do that

Totally agree.

im not gonna set here and tell you that your wrong, if you dont like the dude you dont like the dude

but seriously, whats the fucking point of posting this in a patrick klepek centric video other than to look for validation of your opinion from fellow pricks?. or to rile up the comments section?

the dude is here to stay so if he bothers you assholes so much, then cancel your membership and gtfo and let us who enjoy the content enjoy the content,

Good stuff man, good stuff.

I like Partick. He's a pretty cool dude. I've been a premium member ever since the site allowed me to be. I've been here a while. Some people still can't accept change. They're scared with all this Patrick we get, we won't get the same amount of our old favorites. I think it's cool we get both.

I have been enjoying these.

Was Spookin' just an October thing or will it continue?

The breathing on the mic is fucking unbearable!!! LOL

BOOKMARKED!

If the will/norm really do help him build it, they'll probably put a video up like they did with jeff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ED_6asYE2yk

Lols. So much anger and butthurt and childish insecurity (on behalf of the Klepek haters). Pretty amazing actually that you have such little to do with your life, that posting mongoloid hatespeech on an Internet site makes sense to you.

stop breathing in the mike. stop breathing in the mike stop breathing in the mikestopbreathinginthestopstopstopbreathingSTOPBREATHING!

Excellent choice, playing System Shock 2. It's fantastic, everyone should try it.

@Mofaz said:

Totally agree. I'm with you, my brother in arms.

That background music in the game might have been cool back in the day but for me it's a real mood killer for the game. The game should have used are more eerie music track to go with the horror aspect of the game.

@ThePickle:It's a membership thing which will continue. Maybe less often than in October and the ramp up to Halloween.

@Metal_Mills: If you look at what we're all a part of here at GB... that statement may apply to just about everyone.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and calling this Hate-Speech seems a little ridiculous in context. This is one of the more niche areas of premium membership content(which I thoroughly enjoy) and it's still finding it's footing, but it isn't going to be for everyone. Telling people to just ignore what they don't like sounds worse to me than having them air opinions that I don't happen to agree with.
