Hey guys. I tried looking around and maybe I didnt look hard enough but I didnt see this around here.
I've been looking into picking up Shadowrun for awhile know and I'm wondering should I go pick up the SR3 books, or should I go with the newer SR4? I havent played much shadowrun in the past, just mainly looked into it. Can I get some of your opinions on the two? |
