    PROS: + Augmentations are great and add alot of strategy to gameplay. + You can play the game any way you want to (stealthy or run and gun etc) + The environments are HUGE (especially Hengshua) + Hacking is fun unlike other games + This game has great pacing, you'll be playing it for a long time and won't get sick of it. + LOOT (need I say more?) CONS: - The graphics on characters look a bit bland, but it doesn't bother me too much. - The voice acting is inconsistent in believability (some characters are voiced perfect and others make you cringe) - Reloading after a game over is a long wait.

    This game is a fun FPS with light role playing elements. The story line is interesting and I like that there are different paths through the game for different play styles. You can go in guns blazing or sneak around and take out enemies one by one.

    This game provided a challenge with a good story. You could either fight your way through the whole game or sneak your way through, and the level of power it gives you in deciding how you want to play is phenomenal!

    If you're a stealth genre fan you might want to pick this game up. Blends stealth with RPG elements nicely. It's a FPS game, but it plays like a blend of FPS and TPS.

    Definitely an easy game to get sucked into. It started off a little easy, then it got challenging. Once I got the flow going, I was easing through it. The storyline was great but it did lose me sometimes. But I picked the pieces up later in the story.

    the game it self is great ,but what i don`t like is the fact that this game is a first person shooter . i prefer third person ,that way you can see if you are about to fall off the edge of a building . that`s why if you want a game with grefics ,thbuy it and enjoy it .en

    The short story line is deceiving..it drops you right into intense gameplay right away and once you start choosing the upgrades to your new cybernetic body it really takes off...you now become the thinking mans Terminator.

    Got this for my son so he could play it before playing Mankind Divided. The control scheme is very different from other "shooters". Unfortunately you can't remap the buttons, very aggravating. OK story but the controls killed it for me.

    Brilliant, there is no other word

    I had very little experience with the Deus Ex franchise coming into Human Revolution, and yet I was more than a little skeptical about its effort to revive a nearly decade old franchise. Fortunately my fears were unfounded, as Deus Ex: Human Revolution stays true to what makes the franchise unique while also applying the proper updates to successfully drag it into the modern era. The result is pretty rad. Let’s get this out of the way first- Human Revolution has a laundry list of unfortunate blemishes, ones that range from minor to pretty major. The most immediately obvious among them is the lackluster gunplay. Taking cover and aiming at enemies just doesn’t feel as tight as it could, especially in this era of third person cover based shooters. The enemy AI itself isn’t much better, and the boss fights in particular do the game a clear disservice. In a game that’s all about completing objectives however you want, being forced to engage in subpar gunplay for these fights makes absolutely no sense. The voice acting and dialogue are also suspect at times, but the game’s worst issues are easily its technical ones. Long load times frequently bog down the experience, and there’s plenty of clipping and other visual hiccups to go around. Worst of all are the progress halting glitches. I encountered one bug that literally made a side quest impossible to complete, which left me feeling pretty sour, and is the kind of thing that can almost single-handedly ruin a game for me. Fortunately, Human Revolution does enough substantial things so well that it avoids being ruined by such deficiencies. The game’s biggest strength is undoubtedly the way it gives you the freedom to tackle objectives however you want. The environments are very open, and allow you to approach encounters from a impressive variety of angles- in a single guard-filled room you might be able to run in guns blazing, hack a nearby turret to kill them all for you, or crawl through a vent and simply circumvent the entire scenario altogether. The options available to you are enabled by a host of great character upgrades that range from the ability to lift heavy objects to jumping nine feet into the air, and it’s immensely satisfying when you find a hidden area or item that you could only reach with the upgrades you’ve chosen. That delicate combination of fun upgrades and clever level design is at the heart of what makes Human Revolution so great, and goes a long way in making it stand out among your typical first person action game. In addition, the stealth mechanics are surprisingly well done, and the general aesthetic of the world is pretty neat. The storytelling itself isn’t always as grand as it thinks it is, but the grimy, run down environments are highly detailed and exciting. Deus Ex: Human Revolution is by no means perfect, and contains its fair share of flaws. But the game’s commitment to giving you as much freedom as possible in pursing your objectives does plenty to help you overlook its poor gunplay, misplaced boss encounters and technical problems. It’s a refreshing change of pace from the majority of games out there right now, and as long as you can look past these rough edges I would easily recommend Deus Ex: Human Revolution to fans of the original and newcomers alike.

    If you haven't played this game yet you are missing out, even if you are not familiar with the deus ex saga, this is a most.
