If you're interested in testing out a shooter that merges magic and technology, here's what you need to do:

 

Visit our Web site at http://connect.microsoft.com

 

Click on "Invitations" on the left-side menu.

 

You will need to sign in using a valid Windows Live ID before you can continue to the "Invitations" page. (If you have already registered for the Connect site, skip to Step 5.)

 

Please read and accept the Terms of Use Agreement then follow the instructions to register for the Connect site.

 

Enter your Invitation ID in the blank field. Your invitation ID is: SHBS-6YMT-YKHC

 

Click "Go."

 

Complete and submit the short questionnaire. Please enter 101 for the beta code when asked at the beginning of the questionnaire.

 

If you are not redirected immediately to the "Shadowrun" Beta Selection homepage after completing the questionnaire, click the My Participations link on the left hand navigation bar then click the "Shadowrun" program link. This will redirect you to the "Shadowrun" Beta Selection Homepage.

 

Once you are on the "Shadowrun" Beta Selection Homepage, you will need to complete the rest of the registration process by signing up for the forums by clicking the Join the Forums button then click the Welcome to the Official "Shadowrun" Community Forum Sign In button.

 

Wait patiently for us to contact you with further instructions. Check back at http://connect.microsoft.com for further beta announcements.

 

Signing up for the beta does not guarantee you will be able to play Shadowrun. You are merely submitting a request for consideration. If selected, you will be notified by Microsoft and then owned online by various IGN editors. The beta runs from mid-December 2006 until March 2007. Good luck.

It looks like it will be a good game, though perhaps a little strange since it combines a lot of genres. It's loosely based on the pen-and-paper RPG, which also has a series of books in addition to a Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo game.

I cant say anything, but I encourage anyone to sign up for this live beta and let them know what you think of the game. They need it.

It is good to see someone from this board has gotten to get in. They need all the honest help that they can get. I always personally gave my opinion on a game on the fact that if I had $60, would I buy it new. To say the least, I am a harsh critic
