    People got so hung up on cool cyberware and Johnny Silverhand that they completely forgot Cyberpunk was a warning.

      who wouldn’t want to have e-narrator Keanu in their mind sarcastically commenting their every move ? I’ve already preordered

          Did they put that in the game? If they did that is almost certainly a tip of the hat to Rico Rodriguez, from the Just Cause series

            I think it’s from Edgerunners.

              Ok, well then Edgerunners seems to be giving Rico a nod. That show came out decades after Just Cause, where if you manage to get to the highest point on any of the four maps, Rico says “Look Ma! Top of The World!” in JC1 and all subsequent games the line was, “Look Ma! Top of The World! … … again.”

                Oh, they’re both quoting James Cagney in White Heat from 1949.

                  Fair enough. I am not sure how many James Cagney films I’ve seen, but I would wager that I could count them on one hand.
