Dude, you're actually shooting her? I won this by just spamming the Typhoon.

that fight was really hard until I realized all I had to do was sprint straight past her when she was doiung that explosive charge thing.

then, I just used my stun gun whenn she was recharging, and used my autotargetting battle rifle to finish her off.

this was AFTER I did the whole destroy the power supplies to deal damage to her thing.

I didn't waste praxis or inventory space on the typhoon. I was more stealth oriented, but I specialized the CRAP out of my lethal weapons to make up for it when I HAD to be lethal.

Pegasi, DE 3 is awesome. I'd go so far as to say it's as good as the original overall.

The combat is good, hacking is way better. To be stealthy you need to actually stay out of line-of-sight, rather than just sitting in a slightly dark spot and becoming invisible even though you're silhouetted against an open doorway or something.

Also, you can kill drug dealers by throwing dumpsters at them, and that's great.

Does DE 3 have a Stats system like the Original had?
And, more to a point, is the Storyline any good this time?

Playing the Original Deus Ex had a masive impact on me.
Cause it was SOO FREAKIN GOOD, I never cared about playing other seemingly more generic FPSs (See GoW, Gaylow, Doom 3 etc...).
The last thing I played was probably HL Ep1, and that was do to the hype. 'round it. Hell I didn't even knew what DE was back then I thought it too, just some boring and meaningless FPS at the time.

BOY WAS I WRONG!
Actually the only other Game I would (If I could), tie with this in (or on), the same tier as DE would be American McGee's Alice.

Speaking of which I really need to feed a copy of that (i.e. Alice), to my PS3...

Is the PC version decent?

Cause I hate console ports

I'd say the PC version is probably the best version of you have a decent machine to play it on.

There aren't any stats other than augmentation upgrades, but those cover most of the things that the skills in DE 1 did. The hacking implants, for example, and the arm augmentations that let you shoot more accurately.

As for the story, for maybe half the game it doesn't feel as urgent as in the original, if that makes sense. DE 1 was about saving the world, the first two acts of DE 3 are more like corporate espionage and such. It's a pretty good story, though.

No multitools and crowbars and melee weapons - Deus EX is dead!

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of my wall-crushing robot arms with swords inside them.

@Pegasi

The plot seemed more predictable than the first game once you get a bit in, but it's still the best game there's been for a few years.

Eidos are cunts and don't support Nvidia 3d Vision, but I'm not sure if that means anything to you.
