Summary: Get This Game
Review: This game is really, really great. You determine the outcome of the game by your actions and who you talk to and things like that. It also has a pretty high replay value since what you do determines the outcome of the game and there is more than one ending, but thats all I'm going to say about that. Here's a tip: part of the goals for the developers was to have at least two ways to get to important places. One word: Buy this game! ok thats like 3 but thats beside the point. The point is the game is excellent and you should get it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good first person shooter
Review: Deus Ex may not be the latest, greatest of the FPS genre, but it still stands up to many of the top names of today. The graphics are good, AI pretty good and the overall game play is smooth. It allows the player to make different choices at critical points that impact how the game plays out. If you like Max Payne and Half-Life, chances are you'll enjoy Deus Ex.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The only "Shoot-anything-that-moves" game that I like
Review: I'm not a "Shoot to kill" kind of guy, and since "Wolfstein", that I had a personal interest in fighting nazies, I never really liked that kind of games., they bored me. And then I borrowed "Deus Ex" from a friend. The plot is fascinating, the graphics are good and gives a pretty realistic view, and the world, even though fantastic, is believeable (Which means that it is acceptable by logic that such a world can exist.).
"Deus Ex" is the only game that I found myself breathing faster, and focusing all my senses, before I passed a corner, knowing that something is waiting behind it.
Shortly: Great Story, amazing Graphics, cool weapons, BUY IT!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A FANTASTIC game.
Review: This game has to be the best I've ever played. Not only can you follow just about any player theme (from the silent assassin to the armed-to-the-teeth grunt), but the augs add a whole new playing style. When I first got this game, after playing Half-Life (another fantastic game), I figured this would be about the same thing: story line, weapons, enemies, a goal. There is a story line, no doubt. Weapons kick some serious arse; there are about 20 different actual weapons, with some non-leathal weapons such as pepper guns and smoke grenades, and you can even throw plants to distract the guards! The enemies...the enemies vary. There aren't very many aside from the characters with names, but the good thing is that they're smart, they can hit you, take cover, etc. and they're loaded with different types of weapons. You never know what kind of enemy you'll face. But the goal is the most interesting part! Near the end, you'll have 3 paths to choose from; and that's just the beginning. There is always more than one way to get around something; usually there are two or more. That's the real beauty of this game; there's something in every room, and there are plenty of ways to get to them. I would rate this game 5 out of 5 because it's offered the best first person shooter experience to date.

Summary: Can't wait for Deus Ex 2!
Review: I started playing this game just to take a break from Morrowind and NWN. I planned on playing it for just a couple of hours, but I got hooked, and have been unable to stop. DE is an excellent mix of FPS, roleplay, and adventure that gives you the freedom to play however you want. Do you want to waste anything that moves? Load up on everything from the mini-crossbow to a LAW, and pick up/purchase weapon upgrades. Or would you rather just sneak around and hack into computers and security networks? Just stock up on the right tools and focus on the appropriate skills. The game's plot is something of a mix of the X-Files and Matrix. There is never a dull moment from the time the game starts. When you play this game, you won't be able to wait for Deus Ex 2 either! (Ships Spring '03)

Summary: It has it ALL!
Review: Its been a long time since.... no wait, I have NEVER played a game like this before. EVER! If its action you want- Deus Ex delivers. If its graphics- Deus Ex delivers. And if it is awesome plot that you want- Deus Ex surprises, thrills and then keeps on going!
Hands down, this game is the best game I have ever played on computer! Case closed. Not only does it take the first person shooter genre to a new level, but it combines it with excellent plot and the ability to choose your fate like none other. I remember being wowed by HalfLife. Deus Ex overshadows that in a heartbeat. Perhaps best of all, Deus Ex is challenging! It isn't easy to beat, making every little accomplished objective feel hard won... because it is.
Just when you think you're figuring it out, Deus Ex takes another exciting turn. And just then you think there is no more, there is.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not your typical shooter game
Review: I agree with most people who say this game is better than Half-Life. I loved HL, but this one is more intriguing and the storyline much more engaging. Kudos to the creators for making a game where the object isn't to necessarily kill everyone. In fact, some characters give you grief if you are too violent. A game with a conscious. How novel ... and cool.

The only thing I don't like so far (I'm about halfway through) is the conservative political bent; the not too veiled reference that the UN and FEMA are waiting in the wings to take over the world. People actually believe this nonsense so I hope the creators were being tongue in cheek about it. Regardless, it's still a blast. Highly recommended.

Summary: Greatest Game Of All Time (Forget it's On a Computer.)
Review: Basically you install this game, and the first level takes over four hours if you wan't to just, savor the game, and with it's graphics, sound, and gameplay,and engrossing gameplay, there is no reason not to, this is the greatest story driven game about government conspiracies ever created, it's a RPG, shooter, strategy sim, and drama, all wrapped into one, it's far superior to half-life, and to me, it's the update.- this game'll blow your mind, it's a steal at 30.00$ - i've got all the great games, Grand Theft Auto III, doesn't hold a candle to the replay value in this, you can do anything, at any time, you can waste innocents, or protect them , the decisions are up to you, sneak through the level killing no one, or go out guns blazing,
or perhaps hack your way into the computers and security systems, opening doors and shutting down bots..
it's all up to you, it's wide open, there is no, you know how in most FPS there is a straight line to go? in this there is countless paths, and hidden sidequests, you can easily replay the game an infinite amount of time, and this version has multiplayer as well, all in all, this is the game that makes me appreciate games, and love to be a gamer. One Scales One to ten.

Graphics : 10 - -for me they fit the purpose, anyone saying it looks dated, are spoiled, crisp, clear, and highly detailed, you can even see your charactors when they walk into a mirror.

Sound : 10 - Perfect sound, great voice acting.

Control : 10 - if you've played one FPS you've played them all, and these belong on the P.C. not the consale..there is many ways to customize your controls, and tailor your game.

Replay Value: 10+ you'll never do all you can do in deus ex, and that's where it's magic lies. do yourself a favor and pick it up before it's discontinued.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Half-Life, Eat you heart out!
Review: I haven't totally finished the game yet, but none the less, Half-life, which has been hailed as the best game ever, by many, is [junk] compared to this epic, beautiful game. First off, everything you do affects the games outcome, in the short or long term. For example: in the first level, walk into the womens bathroom and Manderely will get mad at you for it. Not only that, but it has four endings, turning up the replay value 4 times! The most engrossing story ever, and by far the most flexible game ever in terms of how you want to play (Kill everything, Sneak around, Or somewhere in between)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: When is DX2 !?!?
Review: I cannot wait for the second one. This game takes First person shooter's and the RPG's, nukes for 3 minutes, turns em a half turn, does it again and ends up with a hit. Graphics are ok, not great, but ok. It is the storyline and game play that make thius game so great. I want to know why more developers haven't followed suit to come up with more games like this?!
