Oh wow, I've you've never played this before, then do it asap!

Definitely one of the best games ever released. Such an awesome story with a great gaming engine too. If you're a fan of Ultima Underworld, you'll feel right at home getting around in System Shock.

I've been playing this again a bit lately. God those mutants can scare the crap out of you at 3am when you run face-first into one around a corner.

DOSBox settings
This game can chug with the wrong settings, even stuff that works well for Ultima Underworld can bog down badly with System Shock. I've got best results from this game by setting my .dosboxrc as such:
frameskip=1
core=auto
cycles=50000
Using OpenGL with no scalers.
