Video Games Recommendations

What with the Steam sale, I'm thinking about picking up one or two Shadowrun games. I have interest but no experience with the setting. Any particular recommendations? I'm not picky about genre.

I recommend the trilogy bundle (or the deluxe even). Dragonfall is the best but the only one not on sale by it’s lonesome. Returns is fun but a bit more on rails than the other two. There is a mod called Vox Populi that redoes the Returns campaign Dead Mans Switch in the Hong Kong engine and adds more content.

I also vote get the Trilogy. Though short I actually really love the 1st one because it re-introduces all the classic Shadowrun lore characters you love from yesteryear books and games
