: (this post is only almost related to the topic, and it is not necessary to
: read it in any way)

: This sounds a lot like... um... some game or other. Hang, I'll find it...
: ...no, can't find it.

: Never mind the name then; in this game you'd play a hacker who did some
: changes to an AI on a space-station in exchange for some military
: (probably illegal) cybernetics. When you wake up after having recuperated
: from surgery, everything is wrong on the station, since the AI went mad
: after your hacking.

: I can't exactly recall the goal of the game, but stopping the AI from firing
: a huge laser was one important part of it. And in this game, you would
: have to access cyberspace-nodes where you had to float around (almost
: Gibson-style) and trigger the right switches and look out for
: cyber-guards.

: It was a good game, but very difficult, and it had quite an innovative
: approach to controls, using the mouse to aim *in* your FOV and
: moving/looking around with the keyboard. Carrying and using stuff was also
: more realistic - though not altogether convenient... There was a sequel a
: couple of years ago, but I don't know if it ever made it to the MacOS.

I think you're talking about System Shock, that game had an A.I. also, I can't really remember her name, just that she was a psycho killer.
