Well said....
I won't be buying this game either. I also skipped System Shock2 for
the same reason. I saw some screenshots of a reverse blood spattered
cross from SS2 and I decided that enough was enough. I even sent an
e-mail protesting to Looking Glass (the programmers of SS2), to which
they replied by saying that they didn't mean offense to anyone, and it
was just a gravitational machine turning the whole ship upside down
and something like that. I still didn't buy the game.
