The state of insanity.
Cyberpunk 2010 was the actual name of the original and then came Cyberpunk 2020 which was even better. The game was very stylish and even incorporated a Nagel style of art throughout the book that just seemed to fit the glamour and hype of it all. I would say it was one of my favorite of the published RPGs out there. It just didn't get the hype that Shadowrun did though (most likely due to the fact that there were no trolls, elves, dragons, or other various DnD fanboy lures) and so got lost in the shadows.

I would really love to see an rpg in that setting. They even had a whole backstory going on throughout the book that would have made a great kick off point.

Although, I did like the SNES Shadowrun RPG. It's one of my all-time fave console RPGs. I just didn't like their potrayal of cyberspace. The Genesis version was better for that. Too bad overall gameplay in it just wasn't as tight as the SNES version.
