The Shadowrun fps from 2007 never really got shut down, it’s still playable as-is on Xbox and PC

Yep, Microsoft cut its single player mode to add cross play instead. Which in hindsight, they could’ve shipped a campaign first and later updated to add cross play

That’s not true, you can still play offline with bots and with friends over system link offline

Just try to educate yourself before installing a developer studio

The same studio head in charge of the FPS was involved in the new Shadowrun Returns. Microsoft made the studio scrap the planned campaign
October 13, 2025 at 11:19 PM
Damn, lives rent free in your head

And yet it’s still seen as one of the greatest FPS games ever for its unique mechanics that were ahead of its time. Want anyone to blame? Blame Microsoft 2007

People like you want to blame the developer, yet they were heavily restricted by Microsoft. The FPS originally had a system shock-like campaign planned for it but Microsoft had it scrapped in favor of cross-play. Many of the developers were fans of the tabletop already

“They had no idea what they were doing with the Shadowrun license”, are you sure about that or are you just speaking from your feelings? I’m guessing you loved the Shadowrun Returns series, by Harebrained Schemes, co-founded by the same Mitch Gitelman than led FASA Studios to develop the 2007 FPS..

Name in progress is Massive Collapse by Modern Mammoth Games. Currently PC only in the alpha but plans to release on console yes
July 11, 2025 at 5:02 PM
It still has people playing it too

Technically it was Microsoft wanting to focus on cross-play with GFWL that made them cut the story mode, but Halo 3 was likely the bigger distraction for Microsoft than Gears

GFWL was its multiplayer so gutting GFWL means gutting multiplayer. They’d need to port the multiplayer over to Steam matchmaking or EOS

There is a spiritual successor remake in the works

And the Shadowrun 2007 version still works too
May 5, 2025 at 3:45 PM
It’s been reactivated

Unpopular opinion, that I’m having to have with my mother as well. Your pets are better off being rehoused than forced into homelessness. You allow one person into the program with pets and suddenly you have everyone bringing their untrained animals into a semi-shared space. A big liability for them

Awesome! Glad to hear! Can I send you our next video here when it’s ready? We look forward to you checking it out

So you did get the game going.. so it wasn’t a Vista problem. No shit you wouldn’t have liked it if you just played bot matches and never got to experience online matches

The game isn’t a bot simulator, if played online as a competitive tac shooter, the game is goated. Sorry u had a bad experience

Idk, ever since like 2010, it worked on Win 7. I’ve got it installed on 7, 8, 10, and now 11

There’s an install guide on the community website, you don’t even need the disc

Not true. It’s always be able to run on later versions on Windows. I was just playing some games last night on it using Windows 11
April 15, 2025 at 5:46 PM
The game is still playable and there’s still a small holdout community playing daily
April 15, 2025 at 5:42 PM
Half baked mechanics? Clearly you never played the game lol
April 15, 2025 at 5:42 PM
@goldenboy.pro would still kill in a modern Shadowrun game. BumJamas always talks highly of you

Fun fact, there’s a spiritual successor in development. Self funded indie studio

Check out the community discord for the game, discord.gg/Shadowrun

And there’s plenty of new gameplay footage on YT

The “servers” are peer to peer so the game has always worked. It’s just an 18 year old game so it takes organizing 4+ players to get a game going
April 15, 2025 at 5:36 PM
Microsoft was shutting down FASA even before the FPS released. The FPS didn’t ruin FASA but make up your own stories ig 😂
