Get every last one!***Although this game is based on a North American TV series, it was first published in Japan 1988-09 and then Korea shortly after. It did not reach the USA until 15 months later. Other North American TV series based games, such as the Sesame street series and Gilligan's Island, were not even published outside of North America. Airwolf, another North American TV series that enjoyed international success, was also published first in Japan. The UPC code is said to be 0-21481-10302-8 by some sources. But 3-61622-01111-0 is used most often. As Acclaim prints its barcodes on the side of its packages, it is not often seen in online scans of their game boxes. Both codes may be valid, but I have not visually confirmed either of them. Also, I could not locate the Korean and European product barcodes; one of the above codes may be from a European version.

Shadowrun	Sega (BlueSky Software)	1994	Slip Into The Shadows For The Ultimate Adventure!!!The year is 2050 and the megacorps rule by the power of information. Everyone is on file in the global mainframe... everyone but you and a handful of "invisible" outlaws called shadowrunners. Move through the grim and magical realities of futuristic Seattle and uncover a diabolical plot that could destroy the world. * Team up with spell casting mages, wire-headed deckers, or mythic orcs and trolls of the distant past. * Take on a variety of shadowruns including: Cleaning up the streets, jacking into the Matrix for a big time cyber-heist or pulling off a risky "Corporate Extraction." * Stalk the cities in real time combat and glide through the virtual battlefield of the Matrix, where an encounter with Black ICE may be your last.* [26]* [20]***Fun (but tough) RPG with lots of stat-building and a great cyberpunk atmosphere. Combat is all real-time with upgradable weapons and armor and so on. Based on the pen-and-paper RPG by FASA.	Mega Drive
Shadowrun	Data East;Laser Beam (Beam Software)	1993	According to game developers, this game was built upon the "core" of [game=#8055]Nightshade[/game]. This was done to meet the short deadline they had to complete a game based on the Shadowrun license. Another reason they needed to take this shortcut was because most of their adventure game designers left the company after Nightshade was done. To further complicate things, the game's development was put on hold for years and restarted with 6 months left to finish. Even though there was a new team and a new writer, everything had to fit with the story that had already been approved by FASA (there was no creative control to alter this previously approved story)*Loosely based on the novel [i]Never Deal with a Dragon[/i], by Robert N. Charrette.The hilarity of the Johnny Mnemonic movie review aside, the story actually seems inspired by William Gibson's short story title [i]Johnny Mnemonic[/i] published via Omni magazine in 1981 and again via his [i]Burning Chrome[/i] collection of short stories in 1981. The Johnny Mnemonic movie actually came 3 years [b]after[/b] this game. You wake up on a slab in a drawer in the local chop shop (morgue) in Seattle. Find out what happened. Discover Jake's life path. Discover who you can trust. Retaliate against the ones responsible. Fight against and with elves and dwarfs. Banish the undead. Battle sea monsters and dragons. Hack computers. Augment you body with technology and learn magic. Use a bit of detective work, lots of bullets, and public transportation. [Zerothis]This game is one of those timeless (although strangely unknown) games, which I so enjoy playing. Set in the 'distant' future, it follows the same path as the movie, no doubt based on this, staring the infamous Keanu Reaves, Johny Mneumonic. Summed up: You got a harddrive in your head, it's costing you a hell of a headache, and damn, you're going to get it out. Very creative RPG-type level system, multiple weapons, but system of conversations get tiresome. Definitely a game worth playing, but you better be ready to try EVERYTHING to beat it.*Loved this game right from the start when i bought is for my snes 10 years ago for christmas. I bought secret of mana at the same time and shadowrun ranked before secret of mana. i spent all christmas holidays to finish the game. Unfortunatelly i felt it was a bit short. Nevertheless if there would have been a part2 i would have bought it for sure. [otaku-kun]	SNES
Shadowrun Returns	Harebrained Schemes	2013	Comes with the "The Dead Man's Switch" campaign.	Windows
Shadowrun Returns	Harebrained Schemes	2013	The protagonist is presented multiple reasons for involvement; obligation, personal gain (currency reward), revenge, justice, duty (obligated by accepted employment). The main character is constantly presented opportunities to speak and act on a single one of these motives. However, the character sometime choose to speak deceptively (in relation to their motive) with little consequence. The different speech/action options have minor effects on profit and advancement and have make nor real difference to the overall plot. But, they may affect the availability and lack a few sidequests. Which motive truly applies really depends on how the player plays it and if they choose to stick to that motive. However, the protagonist is eventually unavoidably caught up in a mush larger conflict, though his previous motives still effect how he is involved. Though the protagonist is entangled in the larger events, there may be some coercion involved depending on how the player chooses responses too the events.***Will be released sometime after the other platforms, current (2013-04-10) estimate by developers is when the game is translated to German, French, and Italian... whatever that means in terms of actual timing was not elaborated. Update: Was released finally on 2013-10-31.	Linux
