The six secret achievements in Shadowrun

Shadowrun Fever

Shadowrun is full of achievements that are fun to get. Just play for a few hours and you will start racking them up. But some achievements are harder to unlock. Some require a lot of time. Some are awarded after a rare feat. There’s even a social networking achievement that isn’t obvious on how to catch it. Here’s a list and summary of the Shadowrun secret achievements according to players on XBOX.com.

Triple Rez! - Resurrect three allies at once. 10pts.
Winning Streak - Win ten consecutive rounds. 10pts.
Shadowrun Fever! - Catch it! 25pts.
Master Gardener - Kill 5 enemies with Strangle. 25pts.
Godlike - Kill all enemy players while taking no damage yourself. 25pts.
Master Ninja - Inflict one hundred mortal wounds with the Katana. 100pts.

I’m well on my way to becoming a Master Ninja. However, I’ve got some work to do before I become a Master Gardener. I don’t have a green thumb. Shadowrun Fever? I’m ashamed that I’ve caught it.

Shadowrun demo this week

Straight from Kimona on the official Shadowrun forums, the demo for this game will be out on sometime between June 6th and June 8th. No word on if the Vista version of the demo will be available at the same time or not. Here’s hoping that it is else the PC community will have to wait.

And here’s hoping that Bungie is going to show us this love as the HALO 3 beta comes to an end.

Hey folks,

We want to let you know what we know about the demo as soon as we know, you know?

Ok, let me try that again.

The demo’s scheduled to be released on XBL this Wednesday, June 6th. There’s a possibility it may have to wait until the 7th or the 8th. We don’t know for sure that it will be delayed, but we want to let you know it might be a day or two later than we thought it would be, so you can plan your evenings accordingly. :)

Nothing else has changed. Still the same cool demo. Hope to see you online this week.

Penny Arcade busts out with a Shadowrun comic today. They’ve also got some commentary on Shadowrun to go along with the comic. To boot, they’ve mentioned an article I wrote highlighting some big and small problems with Games for Windows - Live. Hushed Casket is getting uber traffic in the last few days.
