Almost everything will be moveable or breakable. There will also be a complete set of black market Augmentations purchasable from dodgy men in dark alleys.Ĭritically, gameplay will be even more open-ended this time, and the environments much more tactile.

The developers are removing redundant skills, merging others, and enhancing those that almost worked last time, but didn’t quite.

Secondly: Augmentation - the upgradeable skills that drive the player character - are to be much simplified this time, with three upgrade levels instead of four. I For starters, this time you’ll be able r to play as either a boy or a girl, and your choice will have an obvious effect on NPC responses. The neo-sci-fi setting, some old characters and some old locations will stay, but almost everything else will change. Led by the legendary Warren Spector, the developers are pulling out all the stops to refine their 'futuristic action RPG franchise and are pretty much starting from scratch. Sequel to the amazing Deus Ex -winner of more than 35 Game of the Year awards worldwide, including ours. The jump to console platforms really dumbed down many of the controls as well, such as those involving conflict, exploring and even the limited inventory management. Yes it’s from 2003, but my goodness are the graphics in this game clunky? The animation hasn’t changed too much from the original, and functions such as grenade throwing are a bit on the dismal side, with every throw making the grenade bounce around madly. There are some slightly controversial decisions included, such as the universal ammo feature (meaning you can stick to one weapon the entire time without ever running out of bullets) that kind of takes the realism away from the game, but if its convenience that you’re after, then who cares? While it’s usually also my pet peeve, the dumb AI is actually in your favour in this game, as easily shooting one guard automatically signals another to run your way, and after a while you have a pile of bodies at your disposal. If you like the original then you’ll like most of what this one has to offer. Yes, it seems that despite all these cool devices and advances in technology, one of the game’s aims is to show you can end conflict though peaceful, non-violent means, allowing players to make an ethical statement through their actions. A game with a first person narrative, Deus Ex 2 sees you armed with many weapons and abilities such as guns, biotech modifications that allow you to see through walls, leap through the air and globe-hop, and the uncanny ability to end conflict through your… words? Huh? The whole idea of the game is that you play as a member of a resistance force that is battling against the dark, brainwashing forces of evil in attempt to fix the world back up again. Who’s going to stop them? Why you are, of course. While the World is a weakened state however, a few pesky religious and political factions see an opportunity to reshape the world and governing bodies to suit their agendas and gain power for decades to come. Approximately 20 years after the events of the first game, the World has just about recovered for a catastrophic economic depression.

Thanks to developers Ion Storm, the world of Deus Ex is back with another dark storyline to offer, and this time available on games consoles, as well.
