Anyone tried this little gem ? Great, great fun!

Its not that well known a game, but its fantastic - you're cast a hacker whose got to earn a living breaking into rival company's systems.

Talk about atmosphere - you'll find yourself sweating to complete each mission.

Definitely worth a try.

Let me know how you got on - I've just been thrown off the system and my equipment confiscated for not paying a fine.

Let THAT be a warning to you!
