Despite the fact that I'm closing in on 40 faster than I would like to admit, I'm still a big kid at heart, and thus I tend to get together with friends of mine for a weekly Role playing game session. Currently, we've been playing Shadowrun for over a year.
After reading the first Repairman Jack novel, I was struck at the similarities between Jack and a shadowrunner. He's off the grid, he's an accomplished fixer, deals with supernatural occurrences, and has his own list of 'contacts' that make his life all that much easier.
I don't know if there are any other gamers here, or anyone for that matter who happens to know what Shadowrun is, but wow, Mr. Wilson wrote a runner YEARS before the game even came out. I love that fact!
Ok, kind of an odd post, but I guess I should stop lurking and start contributing to the board and get to know the folks here.
