Shadowrun (SNES) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

A playthrough of Data East’s 1993 cyberpunk action RPG for the SNES, Shadowrun. Shadowrun is one of those games that many people aren’t aware of, yet nearly everyone that has ever played it absolutely loves it. It was true back when the game first came out - the reviews were extremely positive, but it didn’t sell much at all - and it still seems to hold true now. The internet has spread some awareness about it, but it still yet hasn’t received anywhere near its due. You play as Jake Armitage, the victim of a botched hit. Jake wakes up in a drawer at the morgue suffering from a “burnt“ brain. After terrifying the morticians who had just pronounced him dead, he escapes and immediately runs into a street courier that witnessed the attempted murder. Jake chases the guy into an alley just in time to see him be shot to death. He grabs the downed man’s gun, takes care of business, and finally comes face-to-face with a mysterious talking dog who warns him of dangers to come.
