This one believe it or not may actually shape up to be a 2-part story.  We’ll see.  Probably shouldn’t make those promises when I’m not sure yet…TOO LATE!

I got SHADOWRUN for the PC yesterday.  Don’t believe the flak about it being so “disappointing”, that’s a bunch of bull.  It’s a simple, yet solid game.  It is unique in a few ways, first that the aiming system is altered so that it’s a bit more fair for the console monkeys, y’know how the reticle in CS will get big if you fire full-auto for a while (no?? PUT DOWN THE HALO AND GET A PC!!) well it’s like that, but moreso, and not just based on time firing, also on distance, and weapon type.  Actually that, and the slower movement speed I think improves the gameplay, and makes the integration of the tech and magic more practical, since you can’t possibly play on “all twitch” at that pace.  Check out the reader reviews on IGN to get a better idea.  Ignore IGN australia’s obnoxious Q&A where they harp on the dev team about the reticle thing and then quote a bunch of misinformation about its online play.  Idiots.  They just want it to fail cuz it’s Vista-only.  Deal with it folks, Microsoft is here to stay.  Look at the facts, Bill isnt such a bad guy.  Hell, one thing I know is they sure make a damn nice devkit, and free too!!
