Deus Ex

I won't talk much because tall comments are boring, all i have is, this game, actually, isn't a game, it is a living movie, u r feeling u r playing in a movie, and i have never felt this with any other game, i even played it 3 times in a row for one year, and never got bored: like seeing a movie; all these characters, even i felt that the screenplay is good, scenery also, it is awesome. I actually recommend anyone to play it if he really wants to forget all about the world and live in a big fantasy. Also, i learned many stuff from there, about the illuminati, and all related politics stuff, really this is close to be the best game ever played, so buy it and enjoy it...

No other game comes close to 'Deus Ex' which combines the best of action, RPG, first-person shooter & political intrigue. You make a wrong decision, you pay the consequences. Do you want to be a frontal assault trooper, or an electronics wizard? You decide by honing your skills in these areas and gameplay will be affected accordingly. Nothing else comes close.

The best way for me to describe the tremendous impact this game had on me is

through anecdotal details from my experience playing it through for the first time:

Back in 2000, when this game was released, I didn't have the means to run it at home, and so I "borrowed" my parent's Mac. I basically moved back in at the

time, just for this. Those days, I was in a particularly busy time at work, and yet I would think of nothing else but DX all day, until I finally got "home", and eagerly loaded this masterpiece for another night of completely immerse

fantasy. I completed the "game", on Realistic mode, in just under three weeks, with nightly sessions ending - typically - at 5:30 AM, leaving me just enough time to sleep two hours in preparation for work the next day. By the end of that three-week period, I was so completely and utterly exhausted, I actually

believed I was going to have a cardiac episode driving to work - at the age of 26! I didn't regret the idea for a second.

Well, my folks had their computer set up on a makeshift table with a plywood

surface, the edge of which was rather sharp, and so uncomfortable for the

undersides of your wrists, should you leave them resting there for too long

without a break. One night, so immersed was I in my experience, that this edge had actually managed to break the skin on my mouse-hand wrist, drawing

blood, and I didn't notice until I went to bed.

Enough said. This game succeeds in accomplishing all the goals which should be part and parcel of the basic mission of entertainment, and the manifesto of

gaming in particular.

No matter how great other games may have been, before and since, no other

experience to date has held a candle to this.

It's only too bad you can never go home again.

A deadly virus, The Grey Death, is ravaging a futuristic world (where science might have gone too far) and it is the US government that is using it to cull world population and make a profit by selling the vaccine to the wealthy.

As JC Denton, you must travel the world, solve countless problems and battle loads of foes to find out more, constantly uncovering new facts and changing sides as you go.

Deus Ex is one of the first games where you can make moral and tactical decisions that effect the story and it is partly this, along with: an incredibly diverse group of supporting characters, the ability to both customise yourself (using nano augmentations) and your weapons, the interesting moral dilemmas that the twisting story raises in the player and the continuous references to things like: other games, classic literature, films and philosophical works that makes it such a great game. but the underlying feeling you get from playing the game is one of complete immersion into a wonderful yet darkly twisted world.

I have played Deus Ex many many times and have discovered something new on each occasion. i think it is this that makes Deus ex the greatest game ever and this that will mean it is still the greatest game ever in 5, 10, 15, 100... years time.

11/10

I don't want to make many words!!

I played it about 15 times from the beginning to the every of the different endings and I didn't do that with any other game yet. Just today I went through another time and I found NEW DETAILS I haven't saw yet. It's unbelievable, after 15 times it's excitingly and good like it was at the first time. Now in 2005 there's still no other game, what reaches Deus Ex in any kind, except for maybe the graphics.. ;-)

What a pity that new games are so linear and without so much details and story besides the main story. Furthermore the playtime of Deus Ex is ENORMOUS long in contrast to new games.

BEST GAME IN PC GAMING HISTORY!!!!!
