So I was just mucking about on HBO, cruising the archived news because I was bored, and found this. It's a screenie from Shadowrun, the new MMORPSFFFPS (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Sci-Fi Fantasy First Person Shooter) from FASA Studios, as well as being the poster child for Live Anywhere.

In any case, the screen is a detail of a dude holding a chaingun, and on the muzzle of the chain gun is an incredibly similar decal to the one that's on the barrel of the HPC Flamethrower (also at the top of this page.....). Minus the flame from the nostril and add a little artistic liscense, you've got a direct homage to HPC in game being released primarily for 360 (It'll be on PC, too, but I'm not all that excited). Wonder how many Xbox-ites will actually get it........

That's cool. I think it is a homage to Bungie, since in the article it says they both work in MSGS.

That's true.... I've seen planes like that before. Maybe Bungie copied it off the Air Force onto their Noob-Toastifyer. Hell, I don't know. All I see is that that insignia looks a lot like the flamethrower insignia, and it makes me feel good inside to think that someone (Besides Bungie) making current gen games still cares about us here in the Maw.

Ps...... Bullets don't kill people, magic missiles do!

You guys do realize the flame thrower was in the original Xbox title... you just had to mod your Xbox in order to see it.

I thought the correct derogatory term was Xboxers.

Yes, it was, but not without modding.

Bungie and the developers of Shadowrun are both owned by Microsoft, and both titles are Windows Vista only, so i guess there's a connection with the two games.

Indeed so. I was just stating a fact.
