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.
Key Features:
- Real role-playing from an immersive 3D, first-person perspective. The game includes action, character interaction and problem solving.
- Realistic, recognizable locations. Many of the locations are built from actual blueprints of real places set in a near future scenario.
- A game filled with people rather than monsters. This creates empathy with the game characters and enhances the realism of the game world.
- Rich character development systems: Skills, augmentations, weapon and item selections and multiple solutions to problems ensure that no two players will end the game with similar characters.
- Multiple solutions to problems and character development choices ensure a varied game experience. Talk, fight or use skills to get past obstacles as the game adapts itself to your style of play.
- Strong storyline: Built on "real" conspiracy theories, current events and expected advancements in technology. If it's in the game, someone, somewhere believes

Fun even with dated graphics
I usually find a lot of these older games to be at mediocre at best, but Deus Ex is not one of them. It has an engaging story that's all about conspiracy, the powerful, and their objective to control the entire world. It also dabbles into some interesting perspectives and philosophical arguments that were enjoyable to ponder about and listen to. For the gameplay, it's really enjoyable and does not have this obtuseness that other old games have while still having enough depth to keep me entertained and engaged. I also enjoyed the flexibility that it had, so while I focused on stealth and taking out guards relatively silently, I could still get my hands dirty if so needed. The graphics are rather poor which I understand may be a deal breaker for some people, but I do recommend to tolerate it if you can since the rest of the game is tons of fun. There are also third party launchers and rendering engines for people who may need or want it for improved modern support. Overall I recommend it to try, especially on sale where it's only $1.

After 10 years i still play this game!
This game is so incredibly good that even though they just released a third version of this game the first one remains to be the best and i still play it on a regular basis. If you like RPG you HAVE to play this game.

Excellent game all around
I have always been a major fan of the Deus Ex series and I love the fact that this game is now easily available again with the release of Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
