I remember getting this game from Sam's Club or Costco when I was a kid. I've never heard it mentioned since then so what details I can offer would be scarce, but I'll do my best.

It was an adventure game set in one of those Blade Runner like dystopian futures. In fact I believe it ripped some amount of imagery from Blade Runner.
You played some kind of hacker or something who did jobs for a corporation I believe.

The few details I can remember beyond that are the game was largely third person with a lot of FMV. You could hack into the net and travel places or travel into the net for info. There was a lot of Buddhist imagery, and the hero I think had a shaved head.

I also believe the ultimate point of the game was to collect enough cash to leave town. And it is most defiantly not Johnny Mnemonic.

Ok despite doing research on this before I was just able to answer my own question. The game was called Burn: Cycle. I was originally on Phillips CD-i, but was later ported to PC.

Any one else interested can look here
