Analysis & Tips:

If you’ve ever played a shooter before, you know how satisfying a good grenade launcher can be to use. Fortunately, System Shock 2 does not disappont. The Grenade Launcher has the distinction of being both one of the most powerful and versatile weapons in the game, able to not only fire standard Fragmentation Grenades, but Incendiary, EMP, Proximity and Disruption Grenades as well, which means it’s capable of tackling just about any threat. Its biggest drawback, unfortunately, is the scarcity of its ammunition, which makes it at best a situational weapon… but in that role, it performs wonderfully. Even if you’re not interested in Heavy Weapons, the Grenade Launcher is worth the investment all on its own.
