So, Deus Ex was quite possibly one of my favourite games of all time. Invisible War was a bit disappointing (but was still a solid game).

I'm rather psyched for Human Revolution though, the reports I've heard from the Press Demo or the people who've played the leaked preview build have been good but I'm trying to avoid too many spoilers.

I think I'm going to go for the hardass gun toting style first time through..but stealth. ARGH decisions.

There's some cool clips and interviews with the dev on Eidos Montreal's Youtube channel

The leak is amazing. If the final game matches or exceeds the sheer level of everything the leak has shown, it'll probably be one of the greatest games ever made. Also, game of the year.

I played the leaked demo a few weeks ago, it's nothing short of amazing, but you have to hide behind cover a lot. Going in Guns Blazing (even on the easiest difficulty) is way too hard and will just get you killed easily...

other than that, already preordered!

Yeah, a friend of mine who liked Deus Ex really didn't like that cover stuff.

I haven't played the leak (I'm trying not to spoil myself), but anything has to be better than the awkwardness of DX's 'cover' system at times.

I'll miss running up to people and bashing them with a Dragon sword, but so far, the non linear approach to completing objectives is spot on. Can't wait for the full game.

It's OUT!

And I am too unwell to play it properly.

Curses!

For all the production value, they couldn't at least play the sidequests to completion? I've already run into a couple unavoidable CTD bugs with the sidequests!

They are probably going to fix those in updates once they realize it.

It is nice to see them actually support the game a bit more than other games have, so I expect them to fix as much as possible. I think there were already two patches this week.

I've actually had no crashes so far, I just reached China.

Dunno, some people must be unlucky I guess

But the game itself is pretty great...I'm actually enjoying the stealth a lot in the game as it feels very natural.

I've only played very little of this because it doesn't run quite as stellar as I'd like it to run. What I did play was quite amazing and a breath of fresh air.

I remember in like level 2 or whatever that I infiltrated the warehouse, got behind a guy, knocked him out, and then I didn't know where to go so I hid and watched as they helped him get up and everyone got paranoid. I started laughing at how great this was getting.

Apparently turning of V-Sync helps a lot.

And yeah, I love watching the guys being all paranoid about nothing

Jesus Christ this game is buggy. It REALLY does not like the limited bandwidth my system bus has, cinematics randomly don't load, the BGM skips, etc etc. At least the gameplay works. And the gameplay is excellent.

Hacking a turret to change allegiance, picking it up and THROWING it at your foes is AWESOME.

Totally AWESOME.

I think I'm near the end of the game, and I just figured out you could pick up turrets.

So awesome.

I haven't gotten this yet, but I'm considering it. It looks interesting, but I don't know much about the series.
