Hi! I'm going to avoid using the >>>> since a few people find it annoying
so I won't bother.

Shadowbeat is out, chummers! Just saw about 15 copies at my local game
store...

What is it? Its an indepth look at the world of Media in 2050...

Snoopers, the networks, and how the press operates in a strange, strange
world...

Rockers, their gear, what they need to cut it, and all important, their
gigs.... (Ever wonder what a synthlink did? Now find out in all of its
gory details...)

Sports. What Cyber can you have in football, baseball, basketball? What
is Urban Brawl and Combat Biking? Rules, teams, and team strategies
listed?

What's on the vid tonight? Heck, there's a vid guide thrown in for your
own pleasure....

Detailed Archetypes for Rockers and Snoopers, new skills, new rules
including the Open Test, Impact, and other such media tidbits...

Sorry, I'm not more detailed, but I haven't finished reading it yet...

On a scale of 1-5, I'd say a 4. Rigger Black Book was a 5. This although
is not a VITALLY Necessary book, it is hilarious (Ramboid VI? Baking with
Aunt Sally? MCT vs Oldham Petrol? Behind the Green Door?).

Tired of Decker and Magic weenies? Make a change and enter another crazy
new world, a world of noise and sound, the Media....
