I've been having some trouble recently. My brother and I normally play games together local, but there hasn't been much in the way of local + online multiplayer. We could always buy another copy of Halo 3, we scratched one and borrowed a friend's and then he broke his copy being dumb, but for some reason I don't feel like paying $40 or more for the game again (especially considering I'll be buying Halo 3: ODST sometime this year). I've been playing Lost Planet online by myself a lot and although we both love that game we can't play on the same console. Thinking of that reminded me that we could always play cross-pllatform on the title, even though it ment rebuying the game on the 360. That didn't bother me until I realized no one in town had Lost Planet: Colonies on the 360, so I bought Shadowrun 360 instead. :P

I've posted before about how much I've enjoyed the game and now that has only increased since I have a reliable team-mate. For both the computer title and the 360 one, I've only paid $28. There are still plenty of people playing online and if I ever get sick of them I can always play against bots. Despite the limited maps and modes, Shadowrun continues to be a unique and entertaining take of the FPS. What other game can you teleport up behind people and gust them off the stage? or dodge sniper shots by turning into smoke? Or revive your ungrateful teammates to just see them run off and get killed again? Its always a blast, even if you do sometimes get paired with idiots. Like I thought before, I'm still enjoying this game and hopefully will be able to continue to play it for a long time.

Oh, and when I get my 2nd computer going, I'll install this on there and then I'll have 3 people playing together! Oh yes, we will pwn.
