Another sad event was when Looking Glass Studios (developper of Thief and System Shock) went belly up... alongside most of its projects.
Most of the Looking Glass team have got together under a new name and are working on a sort of spiritual successor to System Shock, called Bioshock.

It's not actually a sequel, as they don't have the license to any of the SS world or characters (that, apparently, belongs to... *shudders* Electronic Arts), but it will have the same sort of atmosphere.

It involves exploring an abandoned genetics lab filled with mutated creatures, all of whom have a preset hierarchical structure and way of acting, and you can use DNA strands to adjust your abilities. Looks pretty cool.

Oh, and Sam & Max: Freelance Police gets my vote too.
