"ahead of it's time" so damn true. Makes me a bit salty how it got crushed in reviews only for games nowadays to take elements from this game and be considered good
They took a classic, open world, rpg.. And made it modern, and epic! But made it a pvp battle royal game!? When this dropped i was so excited.. Just too find out when my mom was almost home with it!? That there was no story.. That was my like 15th b day gift!? I didnt even have internet then.. They dropped the fucking ball! Simple.. Now we get some turned based shit!? Best SNES game! Then it bombed, over and over.. It was ahead of its time! To a fault.. When i finally got online? Everyone was cheating cause of crossplay!? So..
This is the exact feeling. When I was 12-14 I was extremely angry that every single videogames magazine was talking shit about this game with bad reviews being like "This tries to be two things at the same time. Don't. Stick with one and do it good", or stupid stuff like that. But man, this game really was WAY AHEAD OF it's time. It could've been bigger and better than the current top shooters like this. ] Really, a pioneer of this genre and an amazing one.
2007 I was 14 years old and loved this game so much. I went to MLG Orlando to watch pro players play this and halo 3. I bought my first pair of Astro headsets at the event, felt like a pro
Here I am in 2024 and I stand by it… - I tried to look up who owned the rights, see if maybe I could buy them… - then pitch the idea to a games company - get them to revamp it but keep the concept the same… add skins and custom designs - boom profitable concept with sooo much potential… The mechanics and set ups are different enough to rival those of Fortnite cod etc Unreal game sooo much fun. Man I miss it
there is an active daily playerbase now its great! when i first started trying to get the game back up, we were playing 2v2 games, now you can fill a lobby
This game is amazing! If only their was a spirited remaster with this game and franchise! So much fun the healing yet the buy items and guns! Abilities in a shooter before OW! I mean it’s so ahead of it’s time to me it killed its self.
It didn’t just kill itself their was a lot of scummy practices going on at Microsoft at the time and it fairly apparent that they limited the game to prevent to much competition with halo 2/ halo 3 which came out shortly after. If they remastered it, fixed the short falls with the aiming to be similar to modern fps and balanced some of the abilities (I’m looking at you teleport.) this game would probably make game of the year in 2024. Combine the dedicated fam base and the lack of solid titles coming out right now and you have a hit. This would require Microsoft to admit they destroyed the game to push halo tho and we all know how Microsoft is.
The Finals is fun but I go back to this cause I miss when multiplayer shooters weren't live service games with battlepasses. Once you bought the game that was it just go have fun
The clan games we used to have was amazing. I played for a clan called XGL and the clan tournaments were superb, great days 👍 Also miss the CSS clans too 😢
Or because Shadowrun is a tabletop RPG akin to Cyberpunk meets D&D with heist based gameplay instead of dungeons lol. I was livid that this was the modern Shadowrun game that finaly came out after so many years of wanting a new one, ever since I was a kid in the 90s.
@@chloewebb5526 Mitch Gitelman was actually apart of a recent AMA I did with FASA and he talks about how he tried changing the game’s name after the story campaign got cut by Microsoft
I loved this game. Played it all the time as a kid, so lame that it doesn't get the credit it deserves. It was Valorant before Valorant was ever a thought in anyones head.
I remember the hype around this when it was in the works but Never played it (and after Shadowrun Returns came out I forgot all about it😅). Now that I see the gameplay, it's like you can see the prototype for a lot of team shooters like Valorant and overwatch and the like. It definitely was too ahead of its time🫡.
this game was amazing and i was pretty young didnt know the servers shutdown i played the shit of it so that really surprises me lol . nothing like bleeding people out as ninja troll .
This is still my most cherished multiplayer game of all time. I have played it off and on since 2007. I would kill for this game to be healthy and active again.
I loved this game when I was a kid. I was 7 playing this on my original Xbox 360, I completely forgot about this game. They’ve since made sequels but from what I can see it does t seem the same…
I first saw this game while browsing an outlet sale, as the store was getting rid of this game from their invntory. Price was 1 dollar for a physical copy. As i noticed that it also included a 30 day code for xbox live gold i figured this was a no-brainer and placed a order for 30 copies I kept the codes for myself, and the games was handed out for free at school. Everyone was confused. why did i have so many copies of this specific game? Where did i get it from, and why did i give them away for free?? I told them nothin and avoided the questions, just as a way to mess with people and to get some laughs. None the less the boys went home happy that day, and i had years of cheap xbox live gold😂
I don't know why a game hasn't ripped off the teleport from this game. It's the single most satisfying mechanic in any game I've ever played. Porting through walls, ceilings, and floors feels so good.
We’re all still playing, mostly on pc now. The disc version has some quirks but the community’s download version has those worked out using Vulkan/DXVK
Like your in-game audio doesn’t work?? Usually restarting the game or changing your system default audio works. It might be easier to find help in the Shadowrun discord he linked
I showed my nephew this game last year and it just reminded me how good this is, he asked why games suck now Playing this with my friends on 360 growing up was fucking awesome
its because this isn't shadowrun, its a random shooter that had some token elements from the table top setting. It was not what people were expecting and got dumped on, at least initially
so i LOVED this game back in the day. Super excited to play it again. Downloaded it, no one is playing anymore so its already dead again. Played bots anyways because i really wanted to play. As a troll, i dumped 5 shotgun shots into the face of a human, he was unloading his pistol into mine....i lose every time. Im pretty glad the company went under, rosy tinted sunglasses removed, it was a shitty game, just a really cool idea. The guns are HORRIBLY inaccurate, to a laughable amount. Yes ahead of its time id say. But also just bad overall. Cross platform never really took off anyways.
How do I play this on PC? Haven't had Xbox since 360. Would love to get back into this game if it's still running. This was the best multi-player FPS I've ever played
I feel sorry for those players who bought this and thought that this were an RPG game like what the series is often known for (tabletop/turn based RPG). Even I.
I play a badass Shadowrun MUD (a text based online RPG using telnet, Mushclient, etc.) I have been infatuated with cyberpunk/shadowrun since I was like 10.... 26 years now... thanks to text based games lol.....
interesting fact: The crossplay was forced by Microsoft and ate 70% of the game budget so that why the game feel incomplete. The Crossplay tech was new and pretty expensive so that a reason too that make feel that MS shoot the knees of the devs team with that choose.
Fasa was already in trouble financially and shadowrun was only one title. Battletech was probably one of their better known games and other companies have picked up the rights and revived it.

How?????
@@seninclan7805purchase it on Xbox series x I believe
Where?
where can we play it i need to go back sir please and thank you
Everything FASA studio did was amazing.
Mechassult, crimson sky’s
I literally spent over 3000 hrs playing this game. Gust glide or gust grenade was an awesome combo
I spent 980 hours THIS YEAR playing it lol xbox year in review calling me out
i remember playing this demo on 360 way too much fun
Same I played the fuck out of the demo never played the full game lol

2007 I was 14 years old and loved this game so much. I went to MLG Orlando to watch pro players play this and halo 3. I bought my first pair of Astro headsets at the event, felt like a pro
Shadowrun, cod 4 mw , halo 3, mw2 , gears of War, where prime years. :(
The best multiplayer game I have ever played.
I played the demo of this game over and over again when I was a kid with the bots
Same
Buy it i bought on 360 and pc both were worth it
Same it was the best, I used to love teleporting through walls XD
Shadowrun allowed fortnite to sprint. One of the first games I played online with my cousin. Was a classic and glad its got the recognition
Here I am in 2024 and I stand by it…
- I tried to look up who owned the rights, see if maybe I could buy them…
- then pitch the idea to a games company - get them to revamp it but keep the concept the same… add skins and custom designs
- boom profitable concept with sooo much potential… The mechanics and set ups are different enough to rival those of Fortnite cod etc
Unreal game sooo much fun. Man I miss it
This was literally my childhood I didn’t even have the full game just playing the demo with my cousin and having the best time of my life
Played the Game so much on the Xbox 360, genuinely one of the best Multiplayer experiences i have ever had
there is an active daily playerbase now its great! when i first started trying to get the game back up, we were playing 2v2 games, now you can fill a lobby
Is it still online for 360
My favorite FPS ever. I have no idea why it didn’t get more popular.
I loved this game and still think this needs to make a full return

foreal remaster would make my soul so happy lmfao . the class/buying was so unique along with great maps it was always fun .
This game was the most underrated game of all time, using that sword was so fkn fun
Put so many hours into this game with friends. One of the funnest games ever. I always played ELF 😁
One of the best team based multilayer games ever created .
This game is amazing. I had so much fun playing multiplayer on it when it launched. Wish they made a remastered on steam.
I have been playing The Finals, and I am like why am thinking about Shadowrun. They are so similar. So many hours on the game
The Finals is fun but I go back to this cause I miss when multiplayer shooters weren't live service games with battlepasses. Once you bought the game that was it just go have fun
Man I hope Microsoft sees this game again and actually gets an update it was such a w
one of our community members was actually talking to Phil Spencer about Shadowrun at the GDC event this year so he knows there's still a fanbase
The clan games we used to have was amazing. I played for a clan called XGL and the clan tournaments were superb, great days 👍
Also miss the CSS clans too 😢
Only didn't take off like crazy because it released same year as halo 3
very possible. Cod 4 also!
I do remember it coming out around the same time as the halo3 beta

tree and rez should be the first two powers, pistol is the best weapon.
The matchmaking screen is very reminiscent of the old Halo 3 searching screen
Cool combo was the gust glide! This game really let you play with different physical properties
Some of my Halo friends back then used to rip this one, but I never gave it a shot. Maybe I'll try it now!!
Now is the best time!
I got this game as a Christmas gift this game was top tier.💯

IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS GAME FOR YEARS THANK YOU😭😭
If only it wasn’t out during the same time as halo
I wish they would remaster this and release it cause god I loved playing this
Hopefully one day! But there’s still people playing the original every day and an indie dev working on an unofficial remake
Poured hours into the demo. A masterpiece for its time
Remember how unique shooters were in the 2010s
I miss all the fun stuff we used to get
Reach this game cod metroid
As much as I agree... this wasn't a 2010's game. It was released near halo 3, not reach.
@@soulmare333 I may sound like a dumb dumb but I consider 2008 to 2019 as the 2010s

Used to play this game, hundreds of fun playing split screen
I miss this game so muchhhh
It’s on Xbox one store
it's on the Xbox store but locked at 30fps or you can play on PC with potentially 300fps
This game was amazing. I miss it so much
THIS WAS MY JAM
Yooooo shadow run! I played the demo for this game like non-stop sadly i never had to the chance to truly experience this game
Go buy it, people still play and it’s worth it.
It was so much fun being an elf, slicing your troll in the back with your katana then teleporting away 😂
I don't know why a game hasn't ripped off the teleport from this game. It's the single most satisfying mechanic in any game I've ever played. Porting through walls, ceilings, and floors feels so good.
2:25 lmao destiny stole that blink animation
1:19 oh hey its me
Great game...still have a cd copy.
We’re all still playing, mostly on pc now. The disc version has some quirks but the community’s download version has those worked out using Vulkan/DXVK
pure nostalgia
windows vista, it was overshadowed by cod. i am cptqaos, top tier player
The name looks familiar, thankfully you don’t need windows vista anymore to play
@@EMERGxx just have to get my xbox from storage. And get live. This is my favorite game
@@keimoclayton2844you can also play on PC like Arrrash was, and no Xbox live required
We called this game ShadowFun.
Absolutely classic game, needs a sequel, would be huge in 2024
this was the best game ever made for xbox 360!!!! hours of fun on this. they need to remake it!!!
I remember back in the day seeing some of the halo 2 pros playing this. Maybe like walshy or T2. Still remember that lol
man games from like 2006-2013 were so unique they were actually different
I spend hours with this game, is amazing
I remember this game had cross platform play. This was ahead of its time
Can't turn on audio. How can I play it?
Like your in-game audio doesn’t work?? Usually restarting the game or changing your system default audio works. It might be easier to find help in the Shadowrun discord he linked
This game looks great and a lot of fun!! I saw it for sale for $4 so I picked it up to try too. Thank you for the video.
Sword, teleport, and the tech that lets you see through walls. Broken as fuck
Goated sheeesh fawk the cods being back this is gaming
I showed my nephew this game last year and it just reminded me how good this is, he asked why games suck now
Playing this with my friends on 360 growing up was fucking awesome
Game ahead of its time
Going to have to see if people are atill playing. I think about this game often and am always sad i can never play. This is so cool!
They really need to remake this in UE5 this game was soooo fun back in the day
Man I wish the shadowrun setting had more love, where else can you get the perfect blend of dnd/ cyberpunk?
where to download the game
Arrrash linked the Shadowrun discord and website that have guides on how to install
this is like halo meets counter strike and starts a band with team fortress, im gonna have to give it a try
Oh my God I need a copy now
shotguns were so satisfying to me as a kid i never did figure out how to be the big guy though lol
I've been trying to find this game i didn't remember the name so glad i was able to find it again :)
