Sarcastic Gamer is up to their expressive ways again, this time directing their anger and musical talents towards FASA Studios' Shadowrun. Their latest song "Bad Game" is a parody of Daniel Powter's "Bad Day" with lyrics targeted towards bashing what they feel are the worst games of 2007, most notably Shadowrun. Sarcastic Gamer is ready for the emails, hatred and verbal abuse Shadowrun fans will bring after hearing the song, so go ahead give it a listen to see if "Bad Game" captures your feelings. If not, show Sarcastic Gamer the angry!

Speaking as someone who owns the game and plays it, it really isn't anything special but it's enjoyable enough once you get used to it.

Sounds like they were fans of the old RPG and it's a personal problem. But they mention matchmaking when Shadowrun's matchmaking is a lot faster than Halo 2's.

Yea there's some hardcore Shadowrun fans on this site, remember the Bioshock "has no multiplayer so it shouldn't be as good" argument?

I personally love the game, I disagree with why some claim its unfinished. I tend to think its a very balanced and polished game that pretty much stays in my 360.
I know some claim the lack of single player campaign is why the game is unfinished, but was Battlefield Modern Combat Or Black Hawk Down (both XBOX versions) actually enhanced by the inclusion of these single player campaigns? I personally would rather have the bots in the Multi player maps.
The only complaints I have on the game is the ladder animation and sometime the bots are just too dang good (think that one is my lack of "mad skillz")

Shadowrun's sales show that Sarcastic Gamer can't really be blamed.

Great gameplay, bad execution and presentation. I still enjoy it though.

I really really enjoyed this game and it will most likely be a future purchase. 60 dollar game? Not so much but 30-40 I think so people give it a bad rap because its muliplayer only but cmon people they said that along time ago plus people didnt whine about battlefield 2(pc) being multi only and its a fantastic game, same with counterstrike. Yes the game needs more maps and a few more game modes but other than that its original strategic and fun, and it rewards team work which is also a plus.

Not a bad game, but fades into the background amidst the mass of great 2007 releases (in my opinion).

Hey dudes. To echo the sentiment one fo you already expressed.... It's a joke....
A poorly-sung, loosely factual, somewhat original..... joke.
Hope you all enjoy. If you didn't like that song, we have several others floating around on the site as well. Maybe you can find one you like.

I'm with MDJ2010. Shadowrun is only $30 at Amazon now with free shipping, but why would I buy that when I have BioShock for the next month and Halo 3 after that?

I love Shadowrun, but I agree that it's not the biggest game in terms of content. The balance of magic and weapons is something to behold, though.

The song is spot on. Shadowrun fell far from its make. Not a horrible game by any means, but it wasn't really Shadowrun and it wasn't really as good as Counter-Strike either. I have the game and I only played it like twice.
