I was talking to a couple of other Shadowrun players and we started kicking around the idea of a Shadowrun TV series.

I think Shadowrun is a rich base for a TV series, the world is very complex and has a lot of source material to draw inspiration from plus a lot of room for great costuming and special effects. I think it requires too much backstory and explanation for an actual movie or mini-series.

What do you think?
