Came across this link while browsing slashdot today:

http://www.mmorpgdot.com/index.php?hsactio...n=10053&ID=1035

While I don't expect it to ever happen it's nice to see the Shadowrun franchise mentioned in the same breath as Star Trek and James Bond. I honestly don't understand why Shadowrun has never had a decent game built around it, I think a good one is there with the rich backstory Shadowrun has. Yes I know about the SNES and Genesis games but I wouldn't call either of them great. The genesis one was good but couldn't compare to the depth available in modern computer games.
