ive just downloaded the demo fromXbox Liveand played online, this game is basically counterstrike with a halo effect to it. im not critizing the game because its actually quite good, i myself am a counter strike player and when i saw this it was just to uncanny. just wanted to know what you felt.

No. The only similiarity is that you can buy weapons and abilities. Other than that there are no direct similarities that ONLY the two share.

Yeah Counterstrike requires a lot of precision aiming while Shadowrun... well not so much. They are two very different games. Like you said the only similarity is that you buy weapons in the beginning of the round.

Yeah, seriously though, I'd say the major difference between the two is that counter-strike is actually FUN.

I wasn't going to get the game, but after playing a bit of the demo... it's actually a lot of fun. Plus as a CAL player and knowing how precise people can be when playing in matches, I MUCH rather playing FPS games on a console where people don't have pixel-perfect precision. It makes the game much more interesting :)

I know this game is also on PC, but many of the weapons have an inherent degree of inaccuracy.

I don't remember teleporting, healing, x-ray vision, ressing or gliding in counter-strike. Then again I haven't played it in a while, maybe they added it in a recent patch.

Yeah its basicaly the same, but with magic :o

And its still a great game.

And the precise shooter guys you see online, Im one of them thats why I sometimes may feel frustraited when playing console shooters.

most of the times I go "Oh WTF I used a whole clip on him arhhhhhhh" because great CCS players play they almost get every kill with only using 3-4 bullets with a MP4 or AK. But anywho its still a great game.

[XPG] PHANTOM - thats me name on CSS youll see it when you get die

LOL die
