Earthdawn
I also picked up Earthdawn 2ed for about 10 euros at Warpcon. Love the background. The system is unusual but I want to give it a try. I heard that its set in Shadowruns past. I don’t quite see how they connect up to SR 4ed, that but the background story has a Shadowrun feel.
Here is the wikipedia site for Earthdawn which tells you a bit about the background.
