There's a megacd version? I wonder how it compares to the snes and gen versions.

likley to be crammed full of FMV like most things on the mega CD.

IIRC it's a digital comic-style game, completely unrelated to the Gen and SNES versions. It's not rare or anything. The poster is sweet, though. I always like seeing Japanese takes on Western stuff, like the X-men manga which had cool art. That little girl character in the illustration needs to die, however.

Yeah, it's more like an interactive novel with some puzzles and text trees and stuff. Seems kind of interesting. Not a true RPG though, unfortunately.

The SNES version has better style and atmosphere, the Genny version has better nuts-and-bolts game mechanics and is truer to the Shadowrun setting and rules. Both are excellent games worth playing.

hmm, the snes version was the only version i played. i liked it, definitely fed my cyberpunk appetite at the time. i just got a genesis so i figure picking up the genesis version should be part of my plans.
