I only just got Mardock Scramble myself but haven’t had a chance to watch it yet. I must get onto that.

Neuromancer and Snow Crash like a3gis mentioned. There are heaps but those two are amazing. Blade Runner is a quite seminal flick, but the book it’s based on is maybe just what you’re looking for: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick. I must’ve read that thing about 20 times. I recently saw a newish anime called Mardock Scramble that was intensely cyberpunky, too. Recommended.

The concept of a cyborg searching for their identity/purpose/soul gives me tingles thinking about what cyberpunk has to offer. Looks good!

Can anyone point me towards some source content?

I KNOW RIGHT?! btw. Neuromancer was actually made into a point ‘n click game years ago. I don’t think it has anything to do with anything, haha.

That was the best part of the book for me, totally went “FUUAAAAARK!”.

I dreamt that Cyberpunk would be done right. I was frightened of those dreams, because I’ve seen so many *horrible* renditions of other genres .. but this .. this just might make it.

Surely deus ex counts as cyber punk, and you don’t get much more “done right” (the first one not the aweful sequels)

Or just look up shirow masamune… and fap lots….

Though a good bit of Appleseed would be appreciated too ;)
