Well, Now is the time of GoW2 and CoD World at War. There are so many hyped up games on the market today, and I have owned almost all of them. Yet every day, I still find myself absorbed by Shadowrun's amazing team multiplayer. It is balanced perfectly, and skilled players will have no trouble playing well with any of the races, and certain maps call for differing strategies. The battles are the most intense I have ever played in a multiplayer game, assuming you have no bonehead preteens running around all the time trying to be ninjas, team killing and in general bratting out. I have the most fun in the morning where I play with Japanese gamers, who know how to play as a team. If you have a live connection, just try this game and you will soon see that the only "should have been" (which everybody on gamespot seems to be copying from each others' reviews) is that this "should have had" as much hype as Halo 3 or Gears 2, both inferior multiplayer games. Also, the lackluster single player (even as co-op) in Gears 2 was very disappointing, and Halo 3 left me and my friends wondering why people act like its so great. Shadowrun is not a single player type of game, and no it does not use the same material as pen and paper Shadowrun, but I don't understand why that would be relevant to anyone other than Comic Book-Guy geeks like J. Gerstmann (Thankfully he's gone from Gamespot). TRY THIS GAME IF YOU LIKE TEAM MULTIPLAYER, IT WILL AMAZE YOU. And for god's sake, stop thinking like lemmings: just because someone gives you their opinion 1st and loud does not mean that their opinion should guide your thinking, try Shadowrun you will love it.
