Shadowrun

By Sandor Hugert

I just recently got this game for XBOX 360 and it’s a pretty okay game.  There is nothing necessarily wrong with it except that the game gets a little boring after playing for like two hours.  The game itself is pretty cool, but it’s just a little weird how it’s only online play and there is absolutely no single player campaign in the game other than the training levels.  The online game play is pretty cool as it has all types of magic powers which makes the game a lot more enjoyable especially the teleporting and the flying.  You can also resurrect your teammates if you have that magic which I thought was pretty neat.  The game doesn’t have the best guns though considering that it has only like ten types of guns and they are all pretty weak.  I think that the game would have been way better if it was a third person game instead of a first person shooter, but the cool thing is that it does go to a third person view if you use the katana.  One really cool thing about the game is that you can even play with people playing on Vista.  The game can be really fun if you’re playing with a group of friends.  Overall, I think that the game is pretty average but there are some parts to the online that makes the game stand out.

Score:  7 out of 10
