Funnily enough, I remember very well the day I brought SS2. Release day was a half day at college, so I walked the 2 1/2 miles into town and picked up a copy of the game. Then I met my mum, did some more shopping, and sat drinking hot chocolate and reading the manual in a cafe. I got home, loaded up the game, played through until I reached the end of the portion which had been in the demo, and promptly saved and headed off to do more calming things.

I decided that if I can get it to work on my current machine I'm going to try and finish it. Again. :sigh: Hydroponics is the furthest I have got - by the time I have made it through the cargo holds and engineering I'm a frayed wreck! SS2 is so bad that Dead Space's early levels made me uneasy and tense merely by how the ship layout and general theme were similar.
