 :w00t: for Deus Ex... :thumbdown: for that awful 2nd game that I never even gave a chance XD

but yeah, my old comp wouldn't play it so I spent nearly £1000 on a comp just to play it...but it was SOOOO worth it!!!

That game was just beyond belief! I never realised it was that deep until a while ago when I finally finished it lol...

"Deus Ex was kina slow" says Deus Ex 3 developer

And taken from another source:

Quote
This said, they are doing their utmost to please newcomers as well as existing fans. Perhaps controversially this time around combat won't be influenced by stats, but will rely purely on your personal marksmanship skills. Instead stats will influence "a vast array of fully upgradeable and customisable weapons", and you'll be able to tailor your arsenal to your play style with mag upgrades, scopes and other add-ons.

What's more, stealth will now rely on a cover system rather than shadows, and damage will be dealt with by a very Call of Duty-style auto-heal. There's probably going to be some debate over those two.

The signs aren't looking good.

Paris Voice Acting

Been thinking about Deus Ex a lot lately and for no apparent reason. I wished I hadn't sold my PS2 copy now. I mean, after browsing random Youtube videos, I'm still finding new scenes I hadn't seen before.

I particularly love the scene when speaking with the Morpheus AI. Can be completely missed but for those who dig further into the story like myself, it's wonderful dialogue, with the music only adding to the scene. For the 3 mins of dialog Morpheus has, he (or it) is for me at least, a rather chilling character. Not a religious person by any means, but to hear a self-aware AI program trivializing God as almost a beta test for a more efficient system gives me the willies.

Morpheus

A classic. As much as a HD remake would have me drooling from the mouth, it's never gonna happen, and thinking about it, nor would I want it too.

I started playing through the first only one again recently.

Nicolette DuClare took me to the home of her recently murdered mother to look for clues on how to contact one of her friends. As I was looking through the house, she mentioned that her mother had imported the sofa from Portugal at great cost because it had once belonged to a royal family.

I smashed it to pieces with a crowbar.

She told me that wasn't funny.

Square Enix has released a brand new cinematic trailer introducing us to the world of Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

The trailer, which you can watch below, and from which we've captured a large number of still images, introduces us to Adam Jensen and the world of 2027.

Events in the game take place 25 years before the original Deus Ex, so biomechanical augmentations are all the rage with nanotechnological updates still some way off.

The game is set across five metropolises including Detroit, Shanghai and Montreal - home in the present day to developer Eidos Montreal, of course - and will be released for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 in early 2011.

Interesting interview about the game here

Nice looking trailer but obviously it's all CGI so I'm still holding out hope. The comments I heard earlier in the year of wanting to make DX3 more like a traditional FPS is disheartening. To me, it looks like it suffers from prequels for other series like Star Wars/Star Trek etc, in that for a prequel supposedly set 25 years before the events of the original Deus Ex, the technology looks far superior. Granted Deus Ex didn't run on systems as powerful as we have now but still.

I encourage everyone to read the preview that Eurogamer has posted. It makes me more optimistic for the game than I had thought:

Quote
And that - somewhat early on in what will be a glowing preview of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, by the way - is the message I want to convey. This is, recognisably and joyfully, a true Deus Ex game - we can stop worrying and start tentative negotiation with the hype train.

When you see the game in motion you find yourself breathing sigh of relief after sigh of relief at the tiniest of things - from the way the screen looks after you've hacked a computer and are fiddling with security feeds, to the way a strength augmentation will let you pick up boxes that are in your path.

Sure, a 20-minute preview presentation of the nerfed and agoraphobic Deus Ex: Invisible War may well have featured box movement and correctly represented CCTV too - but with DX3 you can't escape the feeling that Eidos Montreal knows what made the original such a classic, and the follow-up a disappointment in comparison.

They also did another article interviewing several people involved in the production team asking a number of questions on the game itself and fan service. So expect to see in Human Revolution, some hints of music used in Deus Ex, returning characters with the same voice actors, and using the code 0451 to open a door. :D
