I just finished the leak, went in with ZERO expectations and I warmed up to it the moment I heard the unatco theme.Apart from the not-so-great writing, this really is a proper deus ex. Loved the bit about robocop in the police station, though.

The writing isn't that bad (some of the dialogue is a little stupid and "on the nose"; it's the voice acting which highlights a lot of the weakness of the script. If this were a television show, it would be well positioned on Friday nights on SyFy or FOX - not great, not bad, serviceable for the cheap genre thrill.
Cross-posting this from the PS3 thread because I wanted to make you guys jealous...
I'm not really usually the type of guy to post this sort of thing, but I thought this was pretty drat cool:
I got the very first production copy (on any platform) of Deus Ex in the world. Granted, like 14 other people got one a few seconds later, but this was actual first one straight from the manufacturer. I am giving it to SamBishop, but at least for the next couple days it is mine...

Nah, I don't have the first one printed, but I was a Eidos Montreal the moment they got the first batch of copies sent from the printers. They had all three platforms, I just happened to be the first person they gave a copy to. They assured me that was the first batch sent anywhere though. I suppose some guy at the factory might have grabbed one before me, but I'm going to pretend they didn't!

Surprise, JJB the art director agreed with the community about the highlighting issue.

Thanks for the scans! Of course he agreed, that's why it was made optional. If he stuck to his guns ("our testers haven't complained") it would have never been made optional I'm ETERNALLY glad he listened and heeded our complaints.
It's been said many times, it wasn't planned but the art director has some modelling experience, and the concept artist who was his friend told him to pose to draw Adam, and it went from there..

the other day I went to put a pre-order down for Deus Ex PC Physical Augmented Edition. I had the weird emo goth kid behind the counter try to convince me adamantly that I'm missing out by not getting the 360 version. He said it was confirmed the 360 version is going to have extra missions and better visual polish thanks to it being the "lead platform." He says this is why it costs slightly more than the PC version, because they are putting a lot more time into it. And he says of course the 360 controller is the standard the game is being designed around, so that too is a bonus.
And then the Coup de grâce: he says thanks to Xbox Live, the multiplayer experience will be the best on that platform. When I inform him that Deus Ex is strictly a single player experience, he laughs at me and tells me that he thinks he has sold enough copies and have read enough issues of Game Informer to know what he's talking about.
Me: "Uh, dude, just sell me the fucking game. There is no multiplayer."
EmoGothKid: "It's your choice, I am just trying to do you a favor. I don't want you to have to return the game because you found out later something you didn't like."
Me: "Just sell me the fucking game."
EmoGothKid: "There are kids in the store, no need to swear like that. Thank you for your purchase." *rings it up*
Me: "Thank Christ."
EmoGothKid: "Don't blame me when you read about the 10/10 the 360 version gets, when the PS3 and PC versions get docked for missing those features."
Me: "FUCK YOU."

Of course in 30 seconds they have to show pew-pew and bam-bam or the derp masses will switch the channels.
Just imagine a different commercial where instead of explosionz, helicopters and gunfights they show hacking sequences, stealth and dialogue trees...the typical 15 year old Gears-of-War-addicted teenager would be like wtf is this crap!
Good? The less those cretins are interested in this game, the better. We all know what happens when ritalin-doped turds get interested in games; they whine about parts of the game until the NEXT game is dumbed to shit.
