It is a good game and yes you don't get to customize your character but who cares in a FPS isn't it about who has more skill not who looks the coolest? If you like FPS and enjoy a good twist on regular run and guns pick up Shadowrun and give it a shot! from Circuitcity.com Pros: Counterstrike Style Gameplay Cons: No Campaign, Boring after a week "When I played this game at first I thought it was totally great, I only purchased guns and swords whilst totally negating the magic abilities and various technology upgrades. The reasoing for this was I expected the game to be a carbon copy of Counterstrike, but with different races and such with other miniscule upgrades. That is not the case at all; this game requires you to adapt and use the magical abilities and technology to overcome the enemy. from Bestbuy.com Pros: Never Gets Old and Great Achievements Cons: No Campain "You might be thinking to yourself this games for losers when you see you can play as magical trolls and dwarfs and elves. I know i did. from Bestbuy.com Pros: stresses strategy, tactics, skill, and teamwork Cons: not very fun without Xbox Live "Shadowrun is a tactical shooter that puts the player in round-based combat. It's very similar to Counter Strike in that it's round based, there are two opposing teams, and before each round players purchase their weapons (and for Shadowrun, magical abilities and technology). from Bestbuy.com The studio that made this game has closed it's doors and they apparently knew about the closure at the start of Shadowrun's development. The quality of the game reflects what i'm sure was low office morale. from Bestbuy.com The same goes with the magic spells. Many of the spells counter act each other. Shadowrun has a steep learning curve because you have to figure what combinations of magic with each race works well. But that is part of the fun, playing around with different combinations. from Bestbuy.com Shadowrun is a game that seems to have a lot of potential. In the end, though, it isn't fully exploited. from Amazon.com If you order this, I do hope you like a good deathmatch--because that's what this game is. It's definitely made for multiplayer. I think my first hint to this effect was when I tried to start a new game and realized the only levels here were training missions. from Amazon.com The different races and magic/technologies let you customize your character in a wide variety of ways. It makes matches much more exciting than your standard halo deathmatch where everyone has the exact same base stats and abilities. Its been a few weeks now and even with halo 3 out I'm still going back to shadowrun consistently. Highly recommend you pick it up for the new lower price if you enjoy death matches with more depth to them then normal. from Amazon.com Shadowrun plays like a great Half-Life. The best multiplayer on the 360 right now and fun as hell. from Amazon.com
