This game looks good. I never played the original so I don't have the hype level up. Will probably get when cheaper though it's on a list of games I should be playing but for one reason or other I'm not.

Play it. It's great.
So pumped for this.
Its cheap on steam.
Will probably hobo-buy this somewhere down the line. 15 quid or less
Get it now GG. Fucking truly great game. This ain't no Half-Life bullshit. And if you don't like it at first give up and try again later. I found the beginning pretty boring and gave up, but when I came back to it and forced my way through it it was great.
I so want this game, I have no disposible income at the moment this sucks if I can pick it up for 40 $ or less down the line then I will.
Played through the first main mission, its Deus Ex! They nailed the feel of the game so all fans of the original will feel right at home. I spent like an hour simply exploring the office building where I work and uncovering worker affairs and some dude stealing supplies. The shooting feels average compared to most shooters but that is probably cause you arent supposed to run around and shoot people. I have found that silently killing every one is hard so far cause I have no silenced weapons yet and your melee takedown takes up energy so you can only do one every minute or so. Once I get my powers going I am sure I wiill be able to take out a room easy.
Now compared to the first games first mission at the Statue of Liberty this games first mission was way smaller in scope. I wonder if that is indicative of the whole game, will we see giant areas to mess around with or will they be more building like, inside with many hallways like this first mission was. Who knows.
Its very cinematic, the intro feels like the start of an awesome sci-fi movie. I can definetly tell its going to be one hell of a game.
Loving it...I also beat the 1st mission...and wandered around just looking at shit.
The game is set up on PC for my exact specs and ATI crossfire....so it looks fucking amazing and runs like a dream.

I started the first one a while ago, but gave up too soon. Everybody seems to love this one as well.
Is there only one other Deus EX game? I so want to pay this, thanks to your impressions. Leo, I now you're playing. What do you think?
Yes, there are only two Deus Ex games, everyone that says otherwise is a liar. Don't be fooled by the photo's they might use as evidence, all lies.
THIS GAME!
I will have a bigger description later but I just wanted to say this, I hacked a turret, turned it against the bad dudes, it killed everyone in the room. I have super strength so I decided to try to pick up the turret, you can, I can carry this giant ass turret around with me and it will auto shoot any bad guy that comes in range.
This game is getting soooo damn good. Buy the strength aug and punch through walls, believe me its a blast. In one mission I confronted this dude in his appartment, he opened fire so I picked up his fridge, used it as a shield and when I got a good line of sight i launched the fridge at him to knock him out.
When you get punch through walls all of a sudden you create new routes through a level. I ended up in what seemed like a dead end but then I saw it was a place where I can punch the wall, well I did, snapped the dudes neck how was behind it. Another guy was stunned at what happended and before he could react I quickly head shot him.
In another scenario I punch through the wall killing some dude, everyone else heard it so they came to inspect, saw the dead body and started to go on alert. Well they all came to that spot so it allowed me to sneak around passed them all. I entered another building, quickly did a takedown on one guard, went to the next room. It had two guards, I hid until the right moment did the takedown on one but the other guard saw me, he shouted out, now everyone is coming at me. I quickly headshot the guard in front of me, take his shotgun and get into cover. Three dudes start to come though the door so I throw a frag grenade, blows them up. I then run full speed at the door and use the shotgun on a guard that was about to come in, he goes flying. I spin around to see another guy coming around the corner, shoot him and then hunt down the last dude and blast him in the face. The gunplay feels powerful, its really really good and it mixes with the stealth so well. I basically took down all guys in that area in like 10 seconds.
Phenomenal game!
