Hi everyone,
Bit o' shameless self promotion here but my group and several others use Dreamwalker to emulate Matrix campaigns. Dreamwalker is essentially mission based, with the PCs having to complete a goal to succeed. Perfect for one-shots, any type of character, adventures in any environment the GM can conceive, built in rules already designed for "downloading" new skills, PCs are way tougher than the average mook and can enhance their physical abilities way beyond the norm. Stats for agents and other bad guys translate well with those of our dream villains (the Taenia). There are a lot of other correlations, probably because the Matrix was a big inspiration for us when we were designing the game.
Anyone interested can read the game's opening fiction to see what I mean:

I'm currently planning a new Matrix campaign myself having caught the fever after seeing the trailer before X2. :)
