I saw it in a shop brand new the other day for £11, but thought that as I wouldn't be able to find a match it was a waste of money so didn't buy it.

Does anyone actually play it anymore?

I dunno plenty of people still play this game. Got on recently and found a match quicker than I do in Halo 3. I can't believe so many people passed it up because Shovelface.. I mean Jeff pissed all over it for not being an RPG. But asside from all that the game seemed to just have caught a second wind. I saw lots of friends on it recently, until my 360 died that is.

I personally loved the game, was original and added something new to the stale FPS genre.

Ha, one of the reasons I didn't buy it was because I knew in 2 months time, when H3 was out that the game would die... had people telling me no way man, this game rocks even when H3 is out I'll still be playing it ha

Hrm, most of the people I know only played Halo 3 for a week or two (only took that long to unlock everything) then went back to Shadowrun or on to COD4/TF2.

oh ya I played H3 then dumped it as fast as I could... I also played the SR beta. I was disappointed that there was no single player element in the game and expressed my concern on what happens when the game is no longer popular, people screamed at me to shut the hell up that they would be playing this for years... ha. There still might be people playing but I would bet not the numbers when it came out and you can probably see a huge drop in numbers after H3 was released. I see the game for $15 now on ebay and think, hmm I should snag that since it's cheap but why bother since you relay on there being other people playing it when your on. I just think it was a mistake to not have some kinda SP in it.

I believe the plan was to release the SP free of charge as downloadable content later if the game sold well enough. Microsoft screwed FASA on their budget and gave them no advertisment funding so it is supprising it did as well as it did.

I'm still pissed MS stabbed the founding developers of Xbox Live games in the back like that. Really fucking lame. They put Live on the map and set the standard for online console games.

Wait you're telling me that you CAN ACTUALLY play TF2 over live? I tried to play it in UK and all I got was literally ONE ranked game and maybe FIVE socials.

That's the bit where I should something about PC Power...so I will.


PC POWER, PC RULES , PC POWER!

Perhaps thats because life has been so iffy there are no americans hosting games. Last I played (about a week ago before the 360 died) there were tons of games on and we couldn't keep people kicked long enough from our game to invite friends.

Jakubk666:- I tried out TF2 the other day and had no problems in the UK finding games. Couldn't find any on New Year's Eve but I put that down to Live being fucked up.

One of my favorite clips is the one of the Shadowrun project head cursing at people for not buying his game. What's really sad is that they shot an HD documentary "The making of Shadowrun", so I actually somewhat feel bad for the guy (seems like he really tried)

Better luck next time guy!
