Ghost in the matrix <BR>&gt; &gt; <BR>&gt; &gt;I have only
three recommendations :) <BR>&gt; &gt; <BR>&gt; &gt;Blade
Runner (director's cut if possible) for setting the tone of Shadowrun. <BR>&gt;
&gt;Sneakers and Ronin for demonstrating how a team of runners should operate.

<P>I've heard some nice titles thrown across the table, and only one I could think
of to add...</P>
<P>'Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead'</P>
<P>Honestly my group and I always saw it as the ultimate depiction of a botched
kitty cat run... and the results.</P>
<P>Honestly, the setting is completely lacking in that 'Shadowrun Feel' since it's
set in contemporary times... but it's worth it for the characterizations [the
professionals as well as one with an attitude you'd expect from any crazed gun
bunny/sammie] and even the plot.&nbsp; </P>
<P>That and I'm a huge fan of Warren Zevon, and the fact that it shares the title of
one of his songs [played during the final credits] was just a little bonus for
me.</P>
<P>God bless anyone who can't stand Keanu.<BR>Lepper.</P></DIV>
