Venomized Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 This game use to be one of my favorite games but it is dead now. If not dead, it soon will be. I wish the developers put more effort into the game and updated it. They really screwed a good game over. If they didnt make stupid choices in the beginning and didnt go bankrupt, a lot more people would play this game. I would give this game a 9/10 for gameplay, 7/10 for graphics, 9/10 for achievement difficultly and a 9/10 for how fun it is to go for the achievements. So in all, I think this game is a 9/10 but it is not worth to play anymore unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EOU Findub Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Well, it was extremely one-dimensional in the way that it was essentially an online-only game. This limits itself tremendously...especially when the online following drops off so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Yeah...there are still a ass load of people that play this game. There are always Public matches going, and generally get to 16 people each match within 2 rounds, if not from the get go. So, the game is not dead, and I don't see it dying anytime soon.

agentplatypus Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Its not dead yet. I believe the developers closed right after the game released. Thus no DLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IXI Icetray IXI Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 When it first came out everyone was on it to bad it only lasted for like one month. Good game in it's time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mother Beef Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I loved this game, maybe if the matchmaking system wasnt so shit i would deffiently be playing this game, i spent countless hours on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbull Rukk3r Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I still play this game alot, infact I got it on Xbox AND PC. I play it almost every day cause there are alot of nice people playing it and the game jst owns. The only thing I hate about it is, that when you play at a time almost no one plays, it's hard to find matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcizion Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Agreed. This by far my favorite shooter for the Xbox360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jupitersailfish Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I just found out about this game a few weeks ago lol. It is now my favorite game, I wish I knew about it when it was popular! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLAPSTER Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I usually find 13-20 games on each search. I don't think it's dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maka Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I popped this game in after 1 year of not playing, thinking "What the hell do I got to lose?". Its still just as awesome and fun. Probably the most unappreciated game on the 360... The bad part is that its only online, hence sub-par game reviews, and the graphics do suck quite hard... So many people are missing out..

etc0x Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 In my honest opinion, I think shadowrun is the greatest online game ever invented... Of course, if it had 3 map packs *cough* halo 3 *cough* it could have been MUCH more popular which could have lead to Fasa Studios not going bankrupt which would mean sequels/more maps/updates/etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midersaw Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 A year after this OP, and the game still isn't dead. Shadowrun has a dedicated following, which is a testament to just how good this game is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark St0rm Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I think i might have to pick this game up for pc i had it for xbox a long time ago but I want my one last achievement for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelton Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 In a perfect world, Shadowrun would be more popular than the likes of Halo and CoD. It is arguably the better game. Tbh though, I kind of like how it has a small (ish) tight-knit community. Every game I enter, there is a player I've seen before. People gain reputations, whether it be in a positive light, or a negative light (Minion Preacher/Minotaur's Eye anyone?). Fasa did an excellent job with the game. I don't see how you can put them down. Gameplay is far more important than graphics. Saying that, the graphics really aren't that bad. Sure the textures could be better, but it doesn't impact on the gaming experience imo. Shadowrun will not die anytime soon, fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlamelessSoul Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 yes minotaur's eye is a fag along with all those stand by a people but you just vote them off and move on . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenousguy Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Shadowrun won't die anytime soon. It still is and always has been such a fun game. I guess if you cant get past the graphics then it does become a bit of a "love it or hate it" type of game....but then again have i mentioned how fun it is yet?

eLZy85 Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Other than the obvious lack of single player, if this game would have been followed up with a few patches and some good DLC, it would be amazing. I crave for another multiplayer game like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiodosG4C Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 I still love this game. It was one of the first games I bought for my Xbox 360 and I've had it for roughly three and a half years. I still play sometimes when I'm in the mood. I wish there would be a second one or something to continue it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanVoiles Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Another thing to note that was great about shadowrun is how the framerate was very good at all times, even in the most chaotic moments. Seriously though... the best times I've had in gaming in the past 5 years was Shadowruns opening few months and playing Halo3 legendary on release night with 3 friends. Thats saying something... I hope someone out there reads these threads about shadowrun and appreciates this amazing underrated game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
