Deus Ex™ GOTY Edition

What a shame... this is a awesome game btw! I have played a lot of modern Immersive Sims, and this is probably one of the best!

Replaying one of my favorite games of all time. Many of the themes explored about AI and surveillance seem even more salient today.

I've played through this game twice now, and on both occasions I have been emotionally and personally affected; even with an 8 year gap between play sessions. Yes this is a flawed diamond with its own shortcomings. But the depth and strength of the story, the expansive environments, the multiple meaningful choices more than make up for this. This is an intelligent experience, with a great deal of thought, detail and passion used in the crafting. I haven't ever done a review before, and I may even never do again. I'm not even moved to do a review for the very best of games I play. But this is something else, and just so special and unique that I am compelled to say this: Play this game, and may it affect your life forever. You won't regret it. :-)

Great to see the brilliant game on here, I have already picked it. This game is amazing and its one of the games you should play before you die. The story is interesting from the beginning, and keeps the player interested throughout. The musics fits the game perfectly. And of course you decide how to go though the mission. Want to kill everything that moves? Go ahead. Want to sneak around taking people out silently? Go ahead. Want to go through the game killing no one? Go ahead.

I've bought this game from 3 different sources, and I have no regrets. This is one of the best games I have ever played- the awesome storyline, meeting arbitrary characters a few levels after you killed their father (what a shame) and the perennial need for strategy make this my favorite game. You could go in guns blazing, but you'd probably get slaughtered. Using your resources (BE, health and ammo) well is essential since it's easy to run out of one and end up in a near-death situation. I never played the game in a run and gun fashion, and I'm not too sure that can even be done, but my stealth based sniper/hacker destroyed pretty much everyone in my way. Of course, sometimes words are more effective than bullets- Sticks and Stones!
