That's sora like saying that a game is coming out for Windows and PC.
Knowing a game is being shoved tablets and Ouya just immediately brings the terms "concession" and "simplification" to me.
Wish the Returns kickstarter was still open.

Shadowrun Online adds OUYA and Linux versions to the list
And so begin the posts about individual games being announced for OUYA. Shadowrun Online developer Cliffhanger Productions is the one pledging support for the upcoming system this time around. Not to be confused with the already-Kickstarted Shadowrun Returns, this is the game that could still use some help. Assuming it does reach its funding goal, Shadowrun Online will support the Android-based OUYA console, meaning you can play it with the system's controller. This comes in addition to planned PC, Mac, Linux, and Android and iOS tablet versions of the game. Talk about cross-platform synergy! Admittedly, a not-definitely-happening videogame for OUYA isn't going to automatically change my opinion of the console, but we're getting there, one title at a time. Shadowrun Online also getting Ouya and Linux support [Joystiq] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)So .... if its on Android by proxy its on OUYA ..... so why does OUYA warrant a separate mention? Unless they are just trying to jump on the buzz wagon?
That's sora like saying that a game is coming out for Windows and PC. Probably because the Ouya has a controller that might not work properly if they didnt support it specifically. Theyd need to support things like rumble(does the Ouya have rumble?) otherwise it would just emulate it. Reading the forums on the devs website and at shadowrun.com about Shadowrun Online...it's not really an MMO...non-mmo tactical turn-based multiplayer team combat, with social hubs that are MMO-like. I love the history and story behind Shadowrun, and I loved the Sega Genesis and SNES Shadowrun games too. Shadowrun Online is looking more and more awesome. I like that I can play it single-player if I want and just hire my own team from npc's, or play with my tabletop gaming group online, when we can't meet up in person. We all have different systems...PC/Mac/Linux but this supports all of them. nice. I also like that I can try stuff out on the F2P servers, then switch to the Campaign servers that come with buying the game. Overall, I really want to play this game, and hope Shadowrun Online's Kickstarter gets funded. @UGE: Alright that sounds more like my cup of tea. If I can play offline too, I'm in. Time to go read that page. @Phil Single player, but it's not offline. So I'll be playing Shadowrun Returns when I can't connect, and Shadowrun Online when I can. 'Returns is set in the 2050's, Shadowrun Online is set in the 2070's. They said some of the story in Returns will be reflected in Shadowrun Online, and that what happens in Shadowrun Online, will be used to further the Shadowrun pen & paper RPG storyline. Pretty impressive overall with 3 companies, 3 products, working together. ^_^ always been a huge shadowrun fan, starting with the pen and paper 1st series books. and always wondered why we have so many D&D rpg games but never a good current shadowrun game. cyber punk, magic ,dragons, orcs, street samurais,guns robots,deckers,the matrix. could have made for such an amazing RPG like baulders gate or neverwinter nights etc. @Davedude: Exactly. All the players will be in the same game world, no matter what platform they're playing it on. Actually, this kinda makes me feel *less* interested.
