Is this helpful to you?
The year is 2052 and the world is a dangerous and chaotic place. Terrorists operate openly - killing thousands; drugs, disease and pollution kill even more. The world's economies are close to collapse and the gap between the insanely wealthy and the desperately poor grows ever wider. Worst of all, an ages old conspiracy bent on world domination has decided that the time is right to emerge from the shadows and take control.

The greatest game ever!
It still plays well. There are soem issues on modern PCs, but there are fixes not included with this release. That said, story, gameplay, sound, everything is still just as great as always. Doo yourself a favor and play this if you haven't.

FPS + RPG, first Strife, then Deus Ex
While a bit daunting for newcomers, Deus Ex still offers up some great FPS meets RPG gameplay. We all know the cliche's: cyberpunk, dystopian future, with a morally grey protagonist who ends up entangled in something far bigger than himself. Hell, what am I talking about? We LOVE these damn cliche's! Deus Ex manages to deliver everything we love about the ol' William Gibson novels (which are turning out to be rather prophetic these days), while offering a pretty wide variety of CHOICE. What sorts of choices? From augments to multiple ways of handling situations. Wanna run-n-gun it? Do you. Wanna go Solid Snakin' it? Slither, homey. Wanna be diplomatic? Everyone needs friends. Just be sure to equip the augments that play nice with said play style. Graphically, Deus Ex uses the ol' Unreal Engine. So don't expect face melting graphics. However, for retro gamers like myself, these "old" graphics lend to the atmosphere in Deus EX: a time when cyberpunk was more escapist and less like what we all now live. In terms of difficulty, Deus Ex can be punishing. Particularly if you choose augments that don't work well with your tactics. At its time of release, this mechanic was still very experimental in gaming. Deus Ex definitely plays best on a second or third (or fourth or fifth) play-through. Whether for challenge, for a good story, for nostalgia, or for a good allegory of where First World society is right now, Deus Ex is worth owning.
