  • In love with this game , saw the one on 360 and was all excited till i discovered it was nothing alike and sucked balls , hoping they will continue this game

  • Hah I actually remember beating this game with the shotgun and whatever other second grade armor and accessories cause I didn't know about the secret weapon shop.

  • Shadowrun for snes was badass. And you're hella cute.

  • Wadsworth constant applies. Two minutes of nothing.

  • Like the vid. Audio tip. Drop game audio 6db-12db under your VO.

  • YOU'RE DEAD ARMITAGE!!!

  • Very nice vid. I love the simple yet deep gameplay and the beautiful isometric presentation. If youre into the cyberpunk, play DYSTOPIA

  • bitch shut up and show me your tits.

  • This game needs an hd remake with maybe some aiming enhancement. Even today, you can't get rpg gameplay like shadowrun had.

  • @Terikan2 Deus Ex springs to mind.

  • That is one of my favourite snes games ever, and one of the best games ever to come out of Australia. Sadly, Beam Software no longer exist.

  • If im a watching this~Its kuz you taste good

    The one for saga was just as good

    I got em both_I actually won the promo poster from this one

  • i rented this game from a drugstore multiple times, always getting stuck at certain points in the game. it is still to me a game that was way ahead of its time...the moody music and setting still blows my mind...it's on my top 10 games in terms of favorites..good choice man

  • Do I see Persona 3 in the intro!?!?! OMG! I would die if you reviewed it!

  • The Amy Winehouse/zombie joke is much more relevant now.

  • You actually suggest paying $40 for a cartridge instead of just downloading the rom and ZSNES?

  • OOOHH MY GOD!! YOU HAVE THE MOST ANNOYING VOICE EVER!! LOL

  • All I have to say, is Qud. Its obviously not SR, but that isn't an important fact. For some reason, I cant help but mention Rifts if I start thinking as a decker.

    Hmm, you should also check out the SR novels...

    Thanks for the upload, I look forward to more.

  • Loved this game from back in the day.

  • Woohoo! Secret of Mana!

  • She's so hot!

    fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap

  • Marry me?

  • genesis one is better

  • @AlthenasGuard People always got to say something about the snes or maybe even sega being better, but I don't see a big difference.

  • Female gamer playing an SNES RPG? Inconceivable!

  • I have that same Secret of Mana poster up in my bedroom =D Happy I saved all my Nintendo Power issues

  • Dam this game is HELLA OLD

  • haaaaa thanks for posting, i couldn't remember if i had played the genesis version or the SNES version before. i just remember hiring the dwarf from the bar and he'd say "HEE HEE HO HAR"

    hella funny tho the key words are "HIRING", "RUNNING" and "ICE". sounds like my old job, heh.

  • I fuckin love shadowrun!! My older cousin played the Tabletop RPG through late 80's to 90's. I just love the snes version, make that skrilla!

  • You are the most beatful girl in the earth, for sure!

  • If you guys love shadowrun for snes and sega search on google for abandon tomorrow flash game - its a rpg inspired from shadowrun and it can be played straight from browser , no download required. Haill shadowrun! PS: if you help the game with a good rating developers gona make a contiune to it.

  • im a fool for a lady with a SNES controller in her hand

  • <3 ty so much for reviewing this game... made my summer when I was in middle school :D

  • I wish I could forget about shadowrun for the 360. still makes me shudder

  • I looovvveed this game! It was so different. :) Thanks for doing the review!

  • A cutie that digs retro pop culture. Fun stuff. Hah.. drekheads.

  • I defeated drake and never pulled out the jester spirit. All u gotta do is keep lv 6 armor up.

  • I love this game been playing it since I was about 10, fuckin awesome!!!

  • hacked my psp and have a snes emulator... got me some shadow run. bitches...

  • @kujo2041 original hardware > emulation

  • I used to point out subtle things about the graphics of this game to my friends. For instance sometimes the A.C. fans on the sides of buildings spin at different speeds, or sometimes street lights will flicker. While not eye-popping, they kept things very interesting for me as I played the game. This was one of my all time favorites for the SNES and it's in my top 5 games I'd play if I could only chose 5 in the world.

  • Cheers chummer, my favorite too :)

  • Too bad we'll never see a GURPS illuminati vidja game....

  • why is it a girl what play the videogame?

  • @Ponimaju ok whats so wrong about it

  • Lol. She said that I hav good taste for watching this crap. Whatever YouTube troll

  • music from shadowrun

    depositfiles..com/files/4zfkp9­ag8

  • GWARRRR!!! I want a GWAR rpg!

  • This is my girlfriends acount, But My youtube acount is Juggalo5588 and This was one of the greatest snes games of all time. ITs totally awesome, and frankly, I still play this 18 years after its release!

  • The music in this game was so atmospheric. I still find myself humming it sometimes. Amazing stuff for its time

  • @deejayem91 consider going to gamefaqs

  • or its free on a rom! but a pain in the ass playing on a keyboard..

  • wow ive tried the snes version and could never get 10 mins in to the game, sega one for me, and really the cyberspace for the snes is a joke compared to the sega version. must have something to do with that Blast processing the sega had LOL. either way if anyone gives this a try go fo the sega one u wont be disappointed

  • P.S. Bethesda shouldn't be allowed to make a Shadowrun cRPG, I'd prefer Obsidian to do it since they do better stories.

    Anyway as far as I know one of the FASA founders has started a new company making a new MechWarrior game and I think he also bouht back he Shadowrun license from MS when they dismantled FASA. Hopefully he'll do something good with it.

    Also, the first computer game I can think of that was proper cyberpunk was Neuromancer, a parser based graphical adventure game I played on PC

  • The Genesis version is a lot truer to the sourcematerial aka Shadowrun PnP both in story and gameplay.

  • Another internet review said to try out the Genesis version if I've only played the SNES version (which is my case). Is it better or not?

  • Fuck yeah, nice SoM poster too...anyway a lot of people prefer the Genesis version...it's actually pretty cool when you get the hang of it but....I loved this one...awesome music, awesome soundtrack....actually I haven't even finished the Genesis version, I stopped for a bit...but this is making me wanna play the SNES one again..

  • Whaaaat!?!? Gensis version was so great though!! Better actually.

  • It was really the best videogameversion of the Pen&Paper-RPG Shadowrun ever made. Noticed my Nickname? It´s based on that Game a midboss you have to pull on your side. Without the JesterSpirit you wouldn´t stand a chance against the endboss Drake.

    Belive me iI played this game a felt hundred times!

  • amazing free gift from mcdonald..pls check secretrevealed . info

  • was that you with the machine gun o_O?

  • this girl....loves shadowrun... which reminded her of blade runner... one of her

    "favorite movies".... I'm in love.

  • What about the Sega Genesis and Microsoft XBox 360 versions of the game?

  • Ha, I love this game. One of the few games I owned on the SNES back in the day. Drake's a liar, we never met in Shadowrun II :(

    Beat Matrix to the punch about 5 years early.....I'm sure some book beat Shadowrun tho ;)

  • Stop looking at your notes!

  • Great review. Shadowrun and Earthbound, my 2 fav games on the snes!

  • I've played through this game four or five times. I love it.

  • This game is So bizzare and totally like Elderscrolls or Fallout. Also i remember my brother playing it It looked so odd I might have to try it

  • Bethesda should release a remake/reimagining of this game that runs on the Fallout/Oblivion engine.

  • @Superwolf1337 Hell no, Shadowrun should be an sprawling action/adventure, not a first person RPG. Should be thrid person, and stick to the cyber/punk/fantasy/gritty theme. Reading the novels are so much better though.

  • @Deiradinn It would be cool though,I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with the old engine this game used, but it would be an interesting concept. I never said that the themes should go,and on the Oblivion engine you can switch to third perdon and even zoom out really far so,yeah.

  • one the best game every made how many time did you beat this game ?

    also everybody should play this game before die

  • If they put this game out like it was back then and didnt change anything but just for xbox 360 i would get it in a heartbeat

  • @huskiepride1206 just play it on pc using znes graphics can be good looking sometimes if ur using filters

  • I'm illustrating a Shadowrun flash game homage titled Abandon Tomorrow, google it, you can see my illustrations in deviantart if you look for this very nickname and/or the title of the game itself. Nice video!

  • All things related to Cyberpunk-style rocks. 80's and early 90's way to see the near future. Dark and ruthless.

  • That game was one of my top 10 games. I remember getting stuck at the bar where you need ice or something, the guy was behind the stairs I think... anyways, got stuck there FOREVER, but back then, there was no such thing as Internet... so I had to "steal" a friend's Nintendo Power to get through it !

  • A beautiful goddess with a Secret of Mana-poster on the wall? YOWZA!!! <3

    Wonderful presentation of a wonderful game!

  • Shadowrun on Genesis was awesome. I don't know what's your problem with it, but I'm guessing you didn't give it a proper shot.

    There, I said it.

  • @theoneandonlymememe

    Totally agrees, The genesis game was great if somewhat repetitive.

    And jacking into the matrix was so much more fun in the genesis version. It felt more like in Jonnhy Mnemonic :P

    Plus the SNES was more of a standar RPG although u had to aim for enemy while combat felt more like an action game on the genesis.

    The Sega CD game is said to be awesome as well bu until its translated or i get much better at Japanese i cant tell lol.

  • this game actually got me into pen & paper RPGs

  • I love the cheap ass room in Bremerton, where there are four Orcs, and the boss is like, "Ok boys. Let's get'im." Then you see nothing but rapid fire damage on your character... you barely have time to react... wth O_o

  • One of my favorite games of all time.

    Thanks for the video.

  • Just realized that the vampire was gackt XD Gackt FTW <3 Great video!I've been playing shadowrun on my SNES for the past few days.Tis be epic :D I love the music in this game

  • it costs less than 20 dollars on ebay now, if ur european (like me), it will cost you over 50 pounds for a PAL version, its actually cheaper to buy an adapter and an american cart if ur console is PAL

  • You love Blade Runner? And Shadowrun? And SNES? Please continue existing as long as possible. You are absolutely rockin' cool. \m/ (-_-) \m/

  • i dont get it ... she completes the line ,but still looks at the screentext? ..... i dont get it

  • my favorite game of ALL TIME. thanks for posting this! good to know this game's made an impact on others as well.

  • games you don't play?? This game is still awesome!!!

    By the way, getting the karma isn't random. You get experience, and karma is like a level up. So 1 karma for a certain amount of experience.

  • Comment removed

  • I think you confused mages for Masians

  • brings back so many memories....

  • One of my favorite games of all time!!!!

  • I masturbated to this video.

  • @drdurdo

    I masturbated to your comment.

  • @drdurdo the game is just that krayzie !!!!!!!

  • @drdurdo

    If you like Samtron, You are gonna love Rinry. They are both hot gamers but Samtron is married and has a kid.

    : (

  • ZOMG!!! SECRET OF MANA POSTER AT THE BACK!!!

    ...Will you marry me?

  • Awesome video! Thanks!

  • I have no idea why people hate, you're talented as far as video production goes. You're cute & you have good taste in games and retro games.

  • Glad you gave this game a try. Nice going. This game was so far ahead of it's time.

  • @diamonddust22 Yes, it was science fiction!

  • @Petfal are trying to be an asshole.

  • @diamonddust22

    And succeding? :D

    Funny, though, wasn't I? You're all right in my book, baby! <3

  • This, along with FF: Mystic Quest, were some of my favorite SNES games

  • 1:33

    Proof that you're a wallflower, Samtron.

    Go look it up in the urban dictionary. All the Shadowrun games minus the Mega CD and Pc versions kicked ass. And I'm pretty sure you don't know next to jack about many other under rated games as well.

  • @Velheim1334 Very true this game was awesome but the Genesis version is better.

  • Another really informative and engaging game review. Nice work. Thanks for the perspective.

  • That Samtron girl is sexy indeed. shame is too little, to know about Cyberpunk or RPG table gaming.

  • That Samtron girl is sexy indeed.

  • yeah this was an awsome game when it came out, couldnt get enough of finishing this game. try beneath a steel sky if you love the cyberpunk genre, really good rpg game.

  • stupid girl motherfucker

  • This is the most decent review I've seen in a long time compared to some game reviews where idiots play the game talk out of there asses I give this a thumbs up

  • you looks sweet, but your eyes goes everytime before you cut it, down like you are reading something.

    Anyway the game looks very like xcom (graphics) but very diffrent games, never play this one, nice video.

  • i am a huge fan of 16-bit graphics

  • "i'll catch you drekheads later' har har har!

  • Marry me

  • fucken Jake, such an epic soundtrack, its amazing no one picked up a movie deal with this game... right dark gritty, the only one that comes close is blade runner... well the atmosphere dark and rainy.... its too bad theres no classic rpgs that get made ,ike this before.

  • i still consider the nes shadowrun one of my top five favorite games. the corporate building was a bitch.

  • love the music to this game I play fallout 3 now because its the closest to a modern shadowrun RPG we'll get

  • about 8 years ago my best friend and I broke out the whole library and dusted 'em off then ran through as many games as possible, as high as possible, as quick as possible - Shadow Run was my favorite, I'd never played it before. Then we celebrated with a Tecmo Superbowl party...

  • hahaha do gaurdians of the hood

  • this game is the best of all times!!

  • You're only upset because these games are old.

    (And clean yourself up before you make a video next time...)

  • Whoa Sam, did I just hear a little dissing of the almighty Shadowrun for Sega Genesis?!? It was way better than this though the SNES version was impressive, and greater ranked as well.

  • @flatrose Wow, that's pretty insulting. I'd rather hear someone speak coherently rather than ramble on about the game (like 90% of other youtube reviewers).

    I guess you can't get over the fact that a girl plays videogames, let alone acknowledge that one could actually write and talk about them. Who knew they taught girls to read and write??

  • YAY SECRET OF MANA POSTER IN THE BACKGROUND!!!

  • awesome game, it got my eyes opened for Rpgs and cyberpunk in general (and killing innocent pedestrians). It was also much more mature than pretty much everything on the SNES. .. t'was awesome indeed

  • Genesis is the superior version. I dont get how anyone could prefer the snes version.

  • @NoBullet Good taste, thats how

  • @Offbeaten The genesis version is made with the help of the people that created the Shadowrun table top game. They didnt work on the SNES version. If you think the snes version is better then youre just delusional, or maybe all giddy because a girl is saying its better. snes version is terrible.

  • @NoBullet Snes version had better music, better immersion, better story. Those are bigger sell points for me than "these guys who did the pen and paper game helped doin it"

  • @Offbeaten I like how you listed everything except the actual gameplay. Usually the biggest selling point in a game is...the game. You obviously havent played it. So keep drooling over this girls opinion like it's fact.

  • @NoBullet It was my opinion before I ever saw this video kiddo, And as far as the genesis gameplay, I didn't like it, .And while I do agree that gameplay Usually, is a bigger sales point, in this case It's an Rpg, a type of game where I do prefer.. music, immersion ,and story. So you'll need to wave something else than your "you just like it cause a girl does"-flag.. If i liked anything a girl liked i'd be watching twilight

  • @Offbeaten Then you have terrible taste in games.

  • Comment removed

  • @NoBullet I believe "no u" is the appropriate response here

  • @Offbeaten -This is the first time ive seen shadowrun for snes it lookes like crap like an old gameboy game. search for the videos from the sega version and take a look. it sounds better and looks better which are two things that really matter. Shadowrun is one of my all time favorite games but I dont think ill waste my time on a snes emulator.

  • @rebelricochet

    Thats odd, I was unaware old gameboy games had color, something this game clearly had. Troll less, and the Genesis game sounded Bad, the soundchip in that machine was .. blech. Very few knew how to use it, Also i strongly disagree at the shadowrun for genesis looking better , Both games look pretty bland on both machines :P

  • Comment removed

  • Great review =] your as foxy as Kitsune. I wish my girlfriend was into this sort of stuff too. Maybe if she watches this it might get her interested.

  • dayum baby you fine as a mufuka <3

  • What about Shadowrun for Sega or the Xbox360?

  • You actually don't recieve Karma randomly. Internally, the game counts them in 1/8ths, and you'll only become aware once you've recieved a full numbr of Karmas.

  • Shadowrun is my all time favorite SNES game.  Thanks for posting!

  • the xbox 360 one is based on this

  • idc this game kickass

  • I feel like on drugs on the intro!!!

  • Great job reviewing one of my favourite games from my childhood! Tread carefully whelp, you have much to overcome :D ......Sorry.

  • It makes me laugh of Genesis owners can't even spell the console's name.

  • that aint the matrix, thats jhonny mnemonic

  • Oh god you have a fucking Secret of Mana poster. Have babies with me.

  • What is funny is that your main complaint of this game is the shooting, and the Genesis version fixed that. SNES version is more searching and fiddling around with the dumb cursor, GEN version is faster paced and no cursor to slow you down. Its darker visually and has even more of a cyber punk feel to it than the SNES version. GEN>SNES Shadowrun.

  • i rented this game as a teen...so confusing....i replayed it on an emulator years later. great stuff...i am a new subscriber. Did you ever play the PC version of Blade Runner?

  • i rented this game as a teen...so confusing....i replayed it on an emulator years later. great stuff...i am a new subscriber. Did you ever play the PC version of Blade Runner?

  • new subscriber....good stuff.

  • I tried and tried but I just couldn't get into this game back when it came out.

  • "Forget those exist at all?" Er, the Genesis version is well-established to be the definitive Shadowrun game for all the reasons that many previous posters have already stated.

  • what? a cute girl who played shadowrun? marry me, seriously.

  • Ah, Genesys version of Shadowrun OWNS this game

    But nice review anyway!

  • man i love this game.i remember myself playing this game again and again it's just so cool.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • WHAT??? The Genesis Shadowrun was Awesome. I must confess I was very upset with the xbox Shadowrun

  • What was the name of Jester Spirit again? This game was a masterpiece,reason i started reading cyberpunk novels like William Gibsons Neauromancer was cos of playing this game.Wanna hear the the biggest bit of trivia everyone knows about the two again? The name Armitage is a nod to Gibsons book,ohhhhh ahhhhhhhhh.

  • @CustardGanet

    Llaughlin

  • Great game. I first
