So. Shadowrun on the XBox. And apparently without putting emphasis on skill-advancement a la the SNES of Genesis versions. The read I got was that it'd be a straight FPS. To paraphrase someone else, just because A is the first letter in a new alphabete, doesn't mean E is the fifth letter. On the other hand, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck... Thoughts? Opinions? |

We needed another first person shooter. Doom, Quake, Half Life, Unreal, Halo, and now Shadowrun.
A first person shooter will really capture the essence of shadowrun. I mean running around and shooting people is what the game is all about. Sarcasm aside The Wheel of Time video game was actually pretty good and was a first person shooter. The Machin Shin in The Ways scared the hell out of me. If The Wheel of Time can be turned into a descent first person shooter then so can Shadowrun. That said, I like everyone else on these forums was hoping for a really good rpg shadowrun game. Something of a cross between Neverwinter Nights and Grand Theft Auto would be much preferred. |

A Halflife or Fallout:Tactics style game would have been my preference.
