Shadowrun has always been one of my favorite campaigns to play in. The third edition of this game is a vast improvement over its previous incarnations. The are format of the book is excellent, and the rules are well written and very easy to understand. Beginning and advanced role-players can easily start playing after a few minutes of reading the basic rules. Shadowrun is a very versatile game in which you can pretty much play whatever you want within reason. So... if you like elves, trolls, dragons, magic and technology all wrapped up into one great world, this is the game for you!
Excellent re-work of an astounding system!

It's great because not only does the guide stick to the basics so that the concepts will not overwhelm new players, but also because it is very logically organized. Ever since I purchased Shadowrun 3rd Ed., I am so excited about the future of the game, and I cannot stop thinking about all of the possibilities.
