How can there be a 3 if there wasn't a 2?

I never played the second one... the first is in my top 10 games of all time.

That's some game called Invisible War. Clearly it has nothing to do with Deus Ex.

I think i was thinking of the port of the first one to the ps2 so gochiefs is right but it was released on xbox and pc

I'm with GoChiefs. I'd rather pretend that there was never a sequel to Deus Ex.

Positive reviews are pouring in.

You can complete the game without firing a bullet.

Excited about this:

Just rented it. About to throw it in.

keg in kc 08-23-2011 10:18 AM

I've gotten into a bad habit in the last year/18 months of buying games and then letting them sit on my hard drive. So my new policy is going to be waiting and buying GOTY editions later on. Might as well save on the inevitable DLC. So this is the first one getting the 'show some restraint' treatment. Ditto for Skyrim, if I happen to go against my gut and play it.

scorpio 08-23-2011 10:25 AM

Never played the first one for some reason even though I love cyberpunk, and this one wasn't even on my radar until I started reading some of the reviews yesterday. Downloading it now, can't wait to play it tonight.

About to sit down to the new Deus Ex game....loved the first one, never played the second. Am I in for happy times? Or can I skip the loading screens and just get right to punching myself in the groin?

Hammock Parties 08-23-2011 09:26 PM

Everything I'm reading is positive.

Please report back...I want to know mostly about the level of conspiracy theories injected into the plot and locations.

QuikSsurfer 08-23-2011 09:56 PM

Picking this up on Friday.
What do you think so far, third eye?

scorpio 08-23-2011 10:36 PM

Played it for a couple hours, and it's really great so far. A little more difficult than I expected. Definitely worth picking up, and I mean buying over renting (or torrenting).

Having not worked the last two days, I've had a chance to spend a good chunk of time playing; probably about 15 hours. The game is really, really good, not genre redefining or anything, but very good and worth the scores it is getting.

It is hard to respond to questions about the story as even at 15 hours in, I feel like I'm just starting to get into it, which is a good thing. Im the guy that does every side quest and explores everything, so it takes me awhile to work through a game like this. The conspiracy stuff is just starting to be overtly discussed, but anyone familiar with the series will be able to read between the lines of some of the dialog and abundance, and I mean abundance, of text (email, ebooks, etc). In fact, the word "illuminati" hasn't even been used yet, though right before my last save my character says "thank you for illuminating me," which feels a bit like foreshadowing. As far as locations go, I've been in Detroit the whole time so far, but am getting ready to go to my next city.

There definitely is plenty to do and plenty of ways to do them. The versatility is nice. Both in terms of ways to attack a certain objective, and in terms of your skill trees which really allow you to play the game the way you want. Certainly not the deepest game ever in this regard, but no slouch either. The graphics can be hit or miss, from some excellent cutscenes and special augment power animations, to some rather drab and boring city textures. I should mention that I've seen a few, not many and not really a problem, graphical glitches as well.

Overall, a really good game that I would recommend to everyone.

Bump 08-24-2011 10:32 PM

if you are buying it for PC, do not buy it at gamestop. Gamestop has opened each one up and took the insert that gives you access to the game on another computer. I don't understand how that's not illegal, but I guess it's not.

Simply Red 08-24-2011 10:37 PM

Yeah, I always liked them, but they only had about two or three good songs, EVER.

It has to go against the TOS for the game somewhere. If Gamestop is really doing this the game publisher needs to know about it.

I'm getting lost in Detroit and I don't care.

Huffmeister 08-29-2011 08:29 AM

So what are the maps like? Are they open world sandbox, or more on-rails? Do you just go from one mission to the next, or do you get side missions and stuff like that?

Really interested in this one.

I am not too far into the game, but its kind of a mix of both linear and sandbox. I completed the first main mission and now I have the choice of 2 or 3 side missions before moving onto the next main mission, so I am pretty satisfied with that. There is definitely quite a bit of exploring that you can do, but its not overwhelming.

The setting gets old with me, storyline is ok but it just doesn't offer enough variety for me. I think it's way too linear so far, I will probably keep playing it until something else comes out that peaks my interest.

Edited to say the Aiming system sucks Donkey ballz.

Do you get XP taking down hobos? If so, I will need to do that to score some cheap XP. I am playing through right now as a l33t haxor, and will see how that works out.

Yeah.

Make sure you get the icarus landing system, and max out the arm augmentations.

You only need to fill out a couple of the hacking aug slots to be a master hacker.

DLC announced

The Deus Ex: Human Revolution conspiracy grows deeper in The Missing Link. During lead character Adam Jensen’s quest for the truth in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, he mysteriously vanishes for three days. Where was he? What did he find out? The Missing Link reveals it all.

"We are very excited for Deus Ex: Human Revolution fans to be able to complete Adam’s journey in the game with The Missing Link DLC," said David Anfossi, producer of Deus Ex: Human Revolution at Eidos-Montreal. "Gamers will be able to experience a vulnerable side of Adam like never before, which gives the overall game a whole new dimension. The Missing Link propels players into compelling gameplay, beginning with Adam being stripped of his use of augmentations, new, visually stunning environments and the continuation of Deus Ex: Human Revolution’s conspiracy rich story.”

After being tortured by Belltower agents and having his augmentations disabled, Adam Jensen must rely solely on his basic capabilities to escape from a freighter, destined for an unknown location. While fighting for his survival on the ship, he uncovers another layer to the conspiracy that he never would have suspected. As Adam, gamers will befriend new, mysterious allies and fight ruthless enemies to discover what was happening in the shadows during the events of Deus Ex: Human Revolution!

Hammock Parties 09-06-2011 06:05 PM

So it's already grossed $30 million.

Quote:

THE BUZZ: Deus Ex: Human Revolution has managed to ship over 600,000 units during its first week of sales on all platforms.

WHAT WE KNOW: According to estimated worldwide sales figures that have just been released Deus Ex sold around 656,000 units during its first week on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. The Xbox 360 version of the game sold best with around 348,000 units, the PlayStation 3 sold 228,000 units and the PC version managed 80,000.

This is an impressive figure for any game during its first week, however the major question is, what was Square-Enix's sales target in order for the game to break even?

According to estimated worldwide figures released by Vgchartz, Deus Ex has sold around 656,000 units for the week ending the 27th of August - on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms. Most of the sales came from the Xbox 360 version with some 348K units, whereas the PS3 version saw 228K units with PC coming in at 80K. This is great news for Square Enix and good news for fans of the series, but we have to wonder; with a game in development for so many years, what will the magic number of units sold that it has to surpass to yield a profit margin for publisher Square.

Hammock Parties 09-06-2011 09:37 PM

You're using the mouse and keyboard, I hope.

Hold the right mouse button when you're up against a wall or a flat surface. A or D key to peek out to your left or right when you're at the edge. W key to go over the top if you're behind a box or a fence.

You can also set the right mouse button to toggle mode if you don't want to hold it.

Really? I enjoyed it as much as the 1st one if not more. The game is absolutely gorgeous and the animations are some of the best I've seen - very satisfying combat (especially when you become more powerful). The story is also pretty epic with like 16 different endings depending on what choices (hard ones) you make. The only real problem I had with it was the clunky inventory system and no way to store anything anywhere.

Speaking of storing things, is there a place that you can go to store stuff in Deus Ex? I'd like to collect the different kinds of weapons that I come across, so I've just been dropping them on the floor of Jensen's apartment.

Stun/EMP grenade - followed by a few frags -- run around for cover -- repeat --When he is stunned, you should also be able to pop off a few headshots.

I forgot to buy the grenade package and only have 4 stun/EMPs. Might be tricky.

You have a save before the boss fight I assume - you should still be able to exit the building and pickup some extra frags from the junkie outside.
