"Shadowrun will be the greatest awesome I'M COVERED IN...500 - Internal Server Error"

Man, I love this new meme :lol

Do you really? I loath it. With SEETHING hate. I want everyone who rickrolls, banned. I bothers me that much. :lol I wouldn't mind if I could identify the link, but since it's youtube every time, no such luck and just don't want to click any yotube link i get.

Perhaps its because I had to live through the period when this song was popular and pull my hair out THEN.
 
It concerns me that this thread is more about Rik than Shadowrun. If this game does well, it won't be because of MS and its PR machine.

I have it reserved. I am definitely feeling like I did before I bought Chromehounds. I know I'll like it but I am not sure if the numbers will be there to support the game. I pretty much expect this game to die come September 25th.


The online jungle of Shadowrun is fundamentally different from the Halo gameplay experience. Once people ride the Shadowrun lightning, it will take a lot for its thunder to be stolen.

Wow.

Just.....wow.

This would be an awesome quote for some kind of 80's tag-team wrestling champs.

Were you looking at your flexing biceps when you typed that? :lol

I will finally be able to judge for myself again since I'm getting the game.

*Goes back to H3 Beta*

Brilliant, I want more. Give this guy his thread privileges back!

Dude, so well spoken
 
Actually the ricknroll crap inspired it for odd reasons.


It made me think of H.P. Lovecraft inspired song "The Thing that should not be" by Metallica. That song has the line in it, "hunter of shadows is rising". Thats what Shadowrun is, great hunter of shadows rising, the cult has summoned living death.

Of course Metallica has the album named "Ride the lighting".


To rebalance your soul from ricknroll, here is "The thing that should not be" live from Rock Am Ring.

i didn't know man yoghurt could get you high
 
I agree with you on all accounts save 1... Counterstrike is by no means a generic FPS'er and is so riddled with tatics it borders overwhelming. It has a moderate learning curve, knowing your map inside and out is essential, and teamwork is key. Also it's nice to die when you get shot in the head.... cause.... that's generally what happens when you get shot in the head.

I agree with you that Halo 3 is just another generic shooter, albeit one that will most likely sell trizizizillion copies.

You, sir, are a PR person's wet dream. I smell a box quote......

Holy Shit!

I am tempted to buy this game just because i believe this post deserves a reward.

Ha ha, oh Brimstone. Today may be the day when you are finally vindicated after all the hardships you had to put up with on here.
 
Metallica's "The thing that should not be" is now Shadowrun's official theme thanks to Brimstone.

Agreed. It looks like Brimstone has planned this all along. We are just puppets. He is the master. Welcome home Brimstone, welcome home.

I'm treading dangerously on-topic here...but I disagree. I think Microsoft has done well with the marketing and PR. Price, maybe not. But timing this with the Halo 3 Beta is brilliant. It's the primary reason I'm buying it. I got a taste of Halo 3 Beta and I am hungry for more...and something deeper.

Unintentional reference? (Shadowrun->"The thing that shall not be"->Metallica->Master of Puppets->brimstone; It all comes full circle) or simply a LOST-like coincedence? Hmm...

Probably a LOST like coicidence. But regardless Brimstone is my hero of the day.

They're off to find the hero of the day
But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way?
Still the window burns, time so slowly turns
Someone there is sighing
Keepers of the flames
Do you feel your names?
Do you hear your babies crying?

So I went to get Forza and I was buried under an avalanche of trade in dough so, long story short...

Guess what I got...

:)

Cool. I think you are on my friends list. If I see you on we can try and get a game in.
 
I can't believe this game didn't get canned a long while ago. This should have been a launch game, maybe then there would be some more excitement.
 
BenjaminBirdie said:
Sounds good. Although much of my attention this evening at least, will be on my sweet baby Forza.


I feel ya. Just came back from getting both Forza 2 and Shadowrun. Too bad I can't close the office until 5PM.
 
yeah so... is there no way to play with human AND bots ? we are only 2 here and the demo need 4 players minimum to play a game...
 
bigfatgameguy said:
It would be hilarious if Brimstone gets the game, plays it for a few days, then doesnt like it.
Would the universe be that cruel? Would his mind allow for that to happen?
