Earlier this month we were invited over to FASA Studios in Redmond Washington to check out a playable build of Shadowrun. While the game is a multiplayer oriented first person shooter it’s based on the long running pen-and-paper RPG originally created by FASA that’s now being run by FanPro. The Shadowrun game is of course not the first time that a pen-and-paper RPG has been adapted into video or PC game form. The biggest example is Dungeons and Dragons which has spawned a ton of PC RPGs over the years along with other genres like action-RPGs, RTS games and most recently a massively multiplayer game. Other titles like Vampire: The Masquerade, Call of Cthulu and others have also been adapted (some more loosely than others) into video and PC games as well.
