Wow, its been 10 years since we had a proper Shadowrun game.

Do people not like the setting? or do they not like the mechanics?
Cuz I cant think of a good reason to stop making these unless sales are terrible.
Also I still think Hong Kong has the best story, and the fact you can recruit a ghoul is pretty awesome.

Try Cyber Knights. It's like Shadowrun without magic - (maybe anteHGV?)

Thanks for the tip.
While digging around I also found Gamedec and Colony Ship. Are you familiar with them?

The rights belong to Microsoft now sadly.

Really? Awesome! UGC is the best part of this whole series, here's to hoping you can persevere against the tyranny of the development client.

Microsoft has owned the video game rights to Shadowrun for 20ish years since FASA folded. HBS licensed the rights to make the trilogy. Which is kind of funny that the creator of SR, Jordan Weissman, had to license the rights to his original setting to make the games. Topps owns the rights to everything else Shadowrun.

People, mostly German, absolutely love the Shadowrun setting. In America and other countries, Shadowrun is every gamer's favorite setting they hate playing in. There's a Shadowrun hack or homebrew for damn near every tabletop system because people really dislike the treatment the setting gets and the mechanics in the Catalyst Game Labs books. PDFs of 2nd and 3rd editions are readily available online and are still the most popular editions to play the tabletop (even though it's on the 6th edition).

Some of those books are available as print on demand at drivethrurpg. If you want originals they're available on amazon and other sites but the print on demand versions are functional for anyone that needs a book in their hand like me. I highly recommend drivethru, it's given me so many books that I had lost growing up. Be sure to order a bunch of 6 sided dice as well, you'll need them. Last I checked they're selling them in 10 pound cubes, if my memory is correct that's almost the amount you'll need to play any Shadowrun tabletop scenario or edition. Good luck finding those books and have fun!
