Don't start a console war here. That would just be stupid.

The reason I can't afford many games is because I'm a college student who isn't leaching off of her parents, but isntead paying her own way through college.

And you play Wh40k? You are much better off than I was in college, ma'am. Of course, now that I am out of college, I can not complain at all. Also, about the female genderless lead characters, there is not much to say. For some reason most gaming companies find male leads better (of course, it might be easier?). Lucky we have Bioware and Mass Effect. I am really interested to see what happens in Mass Effect 3.

Play, yes... Idon't purchase models very much anymore.

I also don't go to the movies, or eat out, or drive very much, or go to bars, or etc etc etc.

Cute cat, but no.

It doesn't cost money to exercise, kid, and certainly you get almost no exercise from movies, eating out, going to bars, or driving around.

I really want that fething cat.

Seriously.

And, Grundz, why are you always such a meanie head?

LOOK OVER THERE! I'm changing the subject inconspicuously.

Anyway - I'm playing through on "Give Me Deus Ex" for a no kill, no alarm run.

However, hitting someone with a stun-gun has killed someone (but I still got the 'merciful kill' XP reward) so I'm going to see if this affects the Pacifist achievement.

I just finished that. And to my great surprise I didn't get pacifist, only the hound one. Basically it seems one stupid clown blown himself near some barrel or was killed by a robot self-destructing. Just great.
Also, remember that kills in the beginning (when you are 100% human) do count.
Second play through now. I happily kill everything in sight even when I'm not supposed to. Hard is really what it's supposed to be. Three pistol shots and you're down, plus the enemies are deadly accurate.
There are many pet peeves I got with the game but it's still the closest thing to the first DeusEx. Liked it very much despite shortcomings. And Final Fantasy XXVII poster made me laugh.

Women who aren't emaciated happen to be very appealing, of course there is a limit due to the 'too much of a good thing is bad' law.

I'm in Hengsha for the 1st time on my 2nd playthrough, 'ultra lethal shooter' mode, hard difficulty kills you pretty fast.

Trying a hard run now, no alarms is the natural method because, for the love of all that is holy, every enemy is firing .50 cal rounds directly into your frontal lobe.

Anyone else find the Final Fantasy XXVII poster? Hopefully they will have the series back on track by then. Personally they would be hard pressed to have 14 more sequels out in the next 16 years!

This trailer has definitive changed my mind about it. Looks better then i expected, because originally my friend told me the entire premise of the game was that its robocop: Guy is hurt bad, people fix him, He kills minorities, roll credits. But in this game i understand its more political minorities while it just so happened they were in robocop.

Might pick it up after i've completed my check list(Space Marine, Dead Island, Battlefield 3, Halo CE remake, Skyrim)

^^ this sums up the game without any spoilers from the point of view of one of the factions and explains most of the main points of conflict in the game

Thanks!

Yep [My screenshot]

This game sounds very interesting, the storyline sounds fantastic, and I've seen the commercial ad for it on the T.V. a couple of times and I can't get over how heart-wrenching that is.

In due time, you will be mine Deus-Ex.

Since i realised you CAN save at any point i am enjoying the game alot more. I lost a good half hour of play at least a few times due to relying on autosaves the first time round. I would have got my no kills playthrough if i had known that the first time round.

Oh heres a funny observation about the game.

A cloaked shape moves swiftly between cover only to jump out and whack the unfortunate goon. Now uncloaked a ruthless Adam Jensen closes the distance toward his next unsuspecting target. Within tapping distance of the goons shoulder he realises something......

The last thing the goon hears is the sound of a Cyberboost proenergy bar being greedily munched on......

There were a few trailers, with were just fantastic. Visuals and story in 3 minute trailer better than typical movie today. They were incredible. Unfortunately the game failed to get equal depth and feel. Still a great game...
Trailer by the OP and this:

Game trailers are awesome lately.. Much batter than games even.. My many YT favourites are game trailers..
Sarif Inudstries site is also great..

See, those are just amazing to me, because if I didn't know it was from a game, I would completely believe something like this existed.

If there weren't so many games demanding of my money very soon, I would pick this up immediately.

Did anyone else think the game might have been a bit rushed or suffer from a slight case of Duke Nukem Syndrome? Believe me I love this game and I am already playing it for a third time through, but it seems like some stuff was a little off.
For example: the busted mirror and all the other mirrors in the game not showing Jensen's reflection. The facial animation looked like something from a few years ago. The scene after the credits was odd, (it showed a character for a second, but then showed a black screen with someone talking for like 30 seconds. I am surprised it wasn't a full motion video that lasted the same length.) Also a lot of the cool full motion video stuff from the trailers looked like it was left out as well.
