I stumbled across this game while surfing at RPG.net. Has anyone heard of it before? I was just curious since it seems somewhat Shadowrun like with cyberware, corporations and psionics instead of magic.

It looks interesting but based off the website I'm getting a bad vibe about the system, I guess I'm getting too old to worry about having to use more then one type of dice while playing. (*Edit* Also I'm not sure I like it when a game appears to be purposely designed with the idea that Characters can be so cool that they auto suceed.)
Plus I'm not so sure I like how the website stresses that you are Agents for the Corps, I've always liked the Freelance Scum angle in my Cyberpunk settings. And last but not least, I like Escape from New York, ect so they lose points on that front as well. :cyber: *Edit 2.0* However with all that said, if/when they release Sourcebooks I'm planning on looking through them, provided that they are either Hardcover or offer PFDs of course. |

Looks like Shadowrun without a budget and without depth.

Thumbs down, way down! "Escape from New York" was the only one of those films that wasn't built on some kind of tongue-in-cheek humor. As far as I'm concerned the only positive thing you can take from "Total Recall" is a spandex leg warmer woman kicking your ass because she has t3h 4s14n m4rt14l 4rts. |

hmm, the basic system sounds like the one used in blue planet. but the need for extra die types makes me suspect hitpoints, d20 style...
