Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 1

For a while? It's been many years since anybody could buy the game :p. The rights to the game were tangled up in an incredibly complicated legal mess, but some studio recently was able to get the rights to re-distribute the game on gog.com.

This is kind of incredibly big news for classic video games, as system shock 2 was one of the most innovative games of its time. It was the first to allow people move the mouse with free range, interact with objects in such a way, and a real upgrade system for your character. Most big games today like borderlands, mass effect, fallout, etc. are heavily influenced by it. The bioshock series is considered to be its spiritual successor.

Yeah I know that it was a major inspiration for many modern day games The very reason I want to play it is because I heard it influenced the Bioshcok franchise (which I love). I just thought you couldn't get ahold of it because it was on a certain console only, like PS2 or something, or that PC specs were too high for it now xD
