Dumbed down Deus Ex.

Deus Ex is still today my favorite game of all time. Invisible War had big shoes to fill, and it didn't fill anything, except the disappointment of fans. Invisible War is not a bad game at its core, it is actually quite good. But what made Deus Ex unique was gone : nearly every RPG elements are out ( body parts, inventory space, points to allow, different munitions ...). All that remains is a dumbed down version of Deus Ex on consoles (it is one of the game I kept with my xbox). A shame. The story line remains quite good, with a lot of different approaches and possibilities, and it still has this intelligent side to it. The soundtrack by Alex Brandon is to my opinion the only part where Invisible War is superior to his big brother.

Ignore the nay-sayers

Deus ex Invisible war is a very solid and enjoyable game, it was always going to struggle being the sequel to one of the greatest games of all time. Granted it is a little "dumbed down" and yes at best it will take you 10-15 hours to complete but its beauty lies in its replayability, I have played this game through countless times since its release and each time I have chosen a different path or sided with a different faction only to stab them in the back when the time came :D The game and the objectives really do depend on who you decide to align yourself with and what key decisions you make throughout the game. The choices aren't limited to dialouge, it is possible to go through the entire game and not have to kill a single person (attributed in part to the awesome stealth gameplay). Theres also plenty of side missions that can be completed numerous ways and can have impacting effects later on in the game. This game is a LOT of fun, you won't regret paying the $10 it costs, if you haven't tried yet due nto bad press/negative reviews you're missing out.

unfair and unbalanced gameplay

Oh, man... what a load of boredom and unfairness is that? Where shall I begin? Well... Level loads are frequent and lengthy. Very lengthy... Well, let's call it a good example for a exercise in patience. Levels are reduced to quite small and dull streets and courts. When you get into buildings you'll find some tiny and very few corridors and rooms. Nothing interesting or worthy to explore. Yes, you can crawl through ventilation shafts, hack the one or the other terminal. But that seems and feels to constructed to suit the needs of the gameplay. Maybe because the places are so small. In addition the gameplay is nothing but a sequence of trial and error exercises. There is no strategy, no plan you can figure out to get past your opponents. Because the unusual dumb AI will contradict all your efforts. You'll try - and fail. More or less you'll pass AI opponents by chance. Very exhausting. It's very annoying that you can't peek around a corner... Another fun breaker to open a door and a guard is just walking by at this very moment (and, of course, will shoot you down). It is not possible to check if it's safe to open a door. It's just: open the door - and hope for the best. No sorry. This is tiring. There is a good reason why 'Deus Ex: Invisible War' has such an low reputation. It' boring, repetitive - and unfair (mostly because of poor AI behavior). I can't say much about the story - because I was to busy to reload saved games. But I guess it's equally boring like the gameplay. The positive about 'Deus Ex: Invisible War'? It's looking quite good and has some good lighting for a game that age. And it sounds pretty good. That's it.

Mindless fun

If you expect any difficulty from this game, you shouldn't buy this game... it's mindless fun. Even though this game is criticized to death because it's not a good sequel or it's short areas, it's a great deal of fun. Pick it up if you just want to kick back and brutally murder the cities of Seattle and Cairo.

Not an awful game, but not like Deus Ex

The biggest changes ive noticed comparing this to Deus Ex is this-choices seem more limited on how you can handle things. Also, this game has a cartoon-y feel to it, whereas Deus Ex the original had a grim/grey feel to it *much more realistic* I would say this game is colorful like a rainbow, Deus Ex the original is like many shades of grey. The biggest disappointment in my opinion is changing the skill sets/augs up, and also the ammo packs for all weapons. At least in Deus ex you didn't go through ammo as quickly usually. Is this a bad game? No. Is it like its predecessor? No, see it as a different game. I will play it again though, its not horrible.
