Average everyday gamers won't be able to get their hands on Shadowrun until the first half of 2007, but FASA Studio and Microsoft Game Studios are letting a select few people try out the game early. A beta program is being held for the online multiplayer portion of this upcoming first-person shooter based on the Shadowrun pencil-and-paper role-playing games. Xbox 360 owners are invited to participate in the program by following the directions Microsoft has provided for us below:
