Cyberpunk is more than a game, in fact its not. It's an entire genre of science fiction that artists, writers, designers, gamemasters, and other creators have embraced. Cyberpunk is a dark vision of the future. Cyberpunk is always very descriptive in describing the world in which its characters inhabit. The difference between the haves and have-nots is always huge. The rich arcology living 'suits' live a life of luxury while the streets are filled with crime, disease ansd general chaos. The struggle is not just external though. The cyberpunk world is full of technological extremes and the line between man and machine is often blurred to the point where it vanishes.

We've gathered a comprehensive list of these resources. We review most of them and highlight our favorites. If you don't see something you think belongs here, suggest it to us.
