Three years ago the folks at Irrational Games brought us a fresh look at comic-book themed gaming with a title called Freedom Force. Irrational bent the traditional RPG/RTS mold and created a game with not only great gameplay, but an awesome story to boot. Of course, not many expected much from this title at first, the comic-book theme was not doing well in video games with cheap titles and cheesy rip-offs coming out like water from a leaky faucet. However the developers of System Shock II (Irrational) knew differently, and took the risk with glee. The result became a cult classic, and still has quite a following today despite being in the bargain bin.
