I was looking for info on Shadowrun for SNES on gamefaqs, and I saw this:

which led me to find this:

Shadowrun on Xbox 360. Designed by FASA, who I'm pretty sure is owned by Microsoft now. This may be the game that makes me buy an Xbox 360, there are so many possibilities as to how awesome this can be. I wonder if they'll have any problems with the Matrix, like licensing issues and such, since a very successful movie trilogy was released under the same name. They say that the game will be an FPS in the article, and I really hope that it's not a true FPS and has role-playing elements like System Shock or Deus Ex or Vampire: Bloodlines...

I never played the tabletop Shadowrun RPG, but I played the SNES and Genesis ones religiously, especially the Genesis one, which was supposedly truer to the tabletop rpg than the SNES version. If the Shadowrun on Xbox 360 is anything like them, that would be totally awesome.
