I, Robot and System Shock

The other day I was watching FX and they were playing I, Robot which I hadn't seen in a while which is why I was watching to begin with. About half-way through the movie I noticed that it was a lot like the game System Shock.

Both invole computer AI's going insane (I, Robot had the AI, VIKI, evolve around programming laws created to prevent such and event: while System Shock had a programmer remove the morality code from the AI SHODAN). Also both AI's were the hive mind like intelligence behind everything computerized in both worlds.

That was basically it which probably doesnt seem like a whole lot but watching the movie did make me want to play System Shock all over again, and if you havn't played you should definately go and get the game.
