hi there guys. Thanks to the awesome 360 Game of shadowrun i happen to take an interest in the SNES game and Genesis game (Drakel introduced me to the latter if i recall correctly), and now im seriously into the pen and paper. You see i got myself the main book downloaded the rest of the books as PDF and for refference and to see what they are like, and now im all about writing my own thing. I would like to ask people that played the pen and paper and that have some expirience with it to help me a bit, point out some things give me some ideas and guidelines to use i'd be ever so thankfull for a good night of enjoyment that comes after a succes with your help.

If it helps, there are several paperback books written within the Shadowrun universe (the Pen&Paper one, of course). I've just only started reading them myself, not bad. Also, if you have not read it yet, the PRIMA official game guide for the 360/PC Shadowrun has a terrific backstory/history to the game we all love playing today, it was actually to be integrated into the single player campaign that was to eventually come, but which is obviously not now

With regard to the paperbacks, I found the old ones (published in the '90s) much better than the few that have been published recently (Born to Run and it's sequel).

is it true someone bought the rights to shadowrun and are making a new game (somewhat modeled after the pen and paper)?

Smith and Tinker bought the rights. They keep saying they're going to do something with them, but have been quite obstinate in avoiding any details of when or what kind of game it will be.
