Shadowrun


Cool magic and tech abilities keep this shooter's multiplayer interesting for awhile, but not long. And with the complete lack of a single player campaign, you'll have nowhere else to turn when you get bored.

Available on: PC , Xbox 360
Genre: Shooter
Published by: Microsoft
Developed by: FASA Studios

Multiplayer. That is coding team FASA's eggs and that is their sole, lonely, solitary basket. Because this, their E3-announced shooter Shadowrun, will not have a Campaign, Story or even single player mode, unless you count a few 'bot battles and a tutorial. Which we ...   » Read Full Shadowrun preview
