A lengthy thread on Ataris' ToEE forums prompted me to come here and ask the question we've been discussing: Will there ever be another Shadowrun Video Game? Being a PC RPG fan and a retired Shadowrun player, it would be awesome if a talented company was to get rights to do a new one. The mixture of Fantasy/SciFi/Real world setting and depth of the game world is ripe for it. Any thoughts?
