Dumpshock Forums _ Shadowrun _ Seattle 2072 nominated for Origins Award

Posted by: JM Hardy Mar 26 2010, 11:58 PM

I don't know about the rest of you, but I could use some good news. Could you use some good news? Because I could. Well, here's some: The beautiful and informative Seattle 2072 has been nominated for an Origins Award in the Roleplaying Game Supplement category! Even better, it's one of five nominations Catalyst products received! What were the others? Who cares! Seattle 2072 was nominated! Sure, Eclipse Phase totally deserves its nomination in the Roleplaying Game category, sure Poo is fast and dirty fun, but we're here to talk about Shadowrun, dammit. And a Shadowrun product just got nominated.

Kudos to the writers, artists, layout people, developers, and all who played a role in making Seattle 2072 awesome!

It seems you get a statuette. Should Seattle 2072 win, I would of course immediately take the statuette out on the town and go cruising for babes.

Ummm back on toipic... That's cool guys. Congratulations. I think maybe I should actually read that book. I've got it but since my game has been based out of Denver for the most part, I just haven't gotten around to reading the book.

That is good news. Seattle is as much a character in the cast of Shadowrun as any Dragon or Corporate overlord. It's good to see some recognition for all the work the team at Catalyst puts into the game.

Here's hoping that same team can put out this standard of work for a long time to come.
