Im probably going to get this on Friday, although much quietness about this game on the PC front.

Also, Microsoft appear to be strangely short on info regarding what features will be available on the Windows Live service. Thought they would have been shouting it from the rooftops.
 
Is it 3rd Person?

Has anyone seen in game footage?

Why is it so quiet......as you say, you would think the first cross platform game would be shown everywhere with publicity etc :confused:

Only selling point is 360 v PC players online.

And theyve not yet fully announced the features that service will offer. Information here and there, but not a lot.

To play cross platform, you need to buy a GOLD Live subscription which is fair enough, but does the PC Live service contain the same content as the XBOX one? Am I expected to pay the same for a cut down service?

The lack of info for both the game and the online service 2 days before launch is strange.

only issue i have is its one of these 'VISTA ONLY' games. Im on XP pro - used it for years, does everything i want and to have Microsoft force VISTA down my neck to play a game, nope...not going to happen until they bring out SP1 for VISTA.

Might be a godo game, but a lot of people i know are not using vista, so thats a lot of sales they have lost out on.
 
I remember shadowrun on the megadrive, it was an awesome game in its time, i couldnt really get into the snes one after playing the different megadrive version (it was a completely different game) from reading reviews it sounds nothing like the original game i played all those years ago
 
Ok here is some more info for you.

I have the game prints infront of me ;)

up to 16 player online multiplayer

Game uses some kind of money system by reading the back cover.

Also, heads up the latest deal printed for Gamestation means that if you trade in certain games you can get it for £9.99..

Im trading in ultimate alliance as i dont play it just to test this on 360.

Will upload artwork later :)

What games?
 
Just ordered this game.. watched the trailer on the website and i have to say it impressed me a lot more than Quake wars has. Shadowrun seems to offer a new and fun twist to the online fps genre, wheras quake wars looks like another iteration of battlefield/unreal tournament, albeit with shiny new graphics.
