Deus Ex Human Revolution gone gold

Cool, at least it won't be bomba right?

Now here is the interesting question: did the leak help them?

I would say it did. People that played the leaked version says it's really good.

It's amazing how little things like a grid inventory system get me excited nowadays.

I actually showed that to a friend (a very old-school PC gamer who worships DX1) as a selling point.

This. Some really fucking great trailer work being done by the marketing department, but I will wait until I see some more gameplay before really being sold on how open the game will be.
 
It's going to be a long 27 day wait. But what's 27 days when we've waited 10 years for a proper successor?

Everyone who says they need to see more gameplay needs to do some basic youtube searching. There's tons of footage from the leaked build on there, at least last time I looked there was. At the very least look at the Gaf thread that was linked earlier here. It's a worthy DX game.

I want to make sure this game doesn't have some shitty console mouse, and honestly the game needs to be a 10/10 OMG type game for me to spend full price on an FPS. So I'm waiting for reviews and demos and lengthy discussions after release before making my decision.
 
I'll be shocked if this game doesn't end up deserving to be called Game of the Year.

Hell, the leaked chunk of the game is practically Game of the Year by itself.

This game is not going to do well with reviewers. Itll probably be an 80s on metacritic with reviewers saying its too complicated/boring/slow/etc. Just play the damn leak and you will be convinced.

Yeah I might just do that lol.

Preordered yesterday (Along with BF3)

It will be deserving, but it won't get it. The game is too complex and involved for the modern reviewer to like it all that much.
 
Best news of the day. Damn, I'm so excited I could punch a hooker!

I hope Human Revolution does well, the world could use more games like Deux Ex. Looking forward to playing Deux Ex:HR!
whenever i get my hands on a new PC or Xbox 360 :/

Haha, i wouldn't be surprised if they take this out of the final game.
Click to expand...
Nah, they'll leave it. I love that you can do that to anyone. I was knocking cops out and hiding their bodies in the police station for the fun of it. Just one cross word said to me...just one.

Yeah. I find myself replaying the leaked chunk of the game instead of playing other full games on my backlog. XD

Skeptics should play a few hours of the leak to see if it's their thing.
 
it is confirmed to be using steamworks, yes?

I have the augmented edition preordered from Gamestop. I'm actually buying a collectors edition (!), day one (!!), from gamestop (!!!). and I'm totally sheepish for going to gamestop for the preorder bonus. YOU MADMEN, YOU FINALLY DID IT! I'm sold on exclusive preorder bullcrap.

That's why I had to delete it.

I might end up doing the same. Steam doesn't get any preorder goodies, right? But getting it at Gamestop will work on Steam and have all the fixins?
 
Linkzg said:

Yes. I have it preorderd at gamestop too for the exclusive mission. I see it also comes with an auto hacker that says it can "unlock 98% of doors" but I won't be using that, if that's even close to true that's way too overpowered.
 
Sweet! It is my most wanted game this year.

Maybe they can finally let us in on how it performs on the consoles. I assume PS3 was the lead console given that all the game footage has been either PS3 or PC. I haven't seen anything from the 360 version.
 
Totally excited for this. This is my birthday gift from my wife - as well as some other games I'm sure. I shouldn't have read the PC preview build impressions. Hype train officially boarded.

I'd be fucking delighted if this game is an 8/10 game.

... Using the scale properly, where 8 is great.

Every version? I have it pre-ordered at my local game shop and they have no information if it requires steam or not. But their price is very nice so I would like to buy the retail copy and activate it on steam. This works, right!?

All I can tell you is that when I looked up upcoming steamworks games Deus Ex is listed, so in that case every retail and DD copy will register. The only major game I can think of that was only partially Steamworks was Witcher 2, and that was only because of their GoG operation.
 
Ah, the one thing that animated GIF recalls to mind are the melee attacks and how awkward they appear. I'm really hoping the final game does a better job transitioning between first person and third person melee actions. As it stands, it feels as if you are pressing a button and it abruptly jumps to a cutscene before returning control. It just looks bad in practice. If they could smooth out the transitions, it would help a lot.

Personally, I would have preferred a Riddick style animation for melee attacks. Keep it first person while still delivering killer animation.

I played the damn leak, then played it again and again, and I was convinced that this is going to be one of the best games this gen.
 
Can't wait, this is the most anticipated game of the year for me.
Yeah, even more than BF3.

I dunno, I got used to it. The Riddick thing would have been cool, but it works here because they have the Rainbow Six: Vegas style cover mechanics going on, so third person feels good enough when you are playing. I dig it.
 
the Amazon listing for the Augmented Edition fails to mention the soundtrack. mentions everything else too, including preorder bonus.

hope it's just a mistake and that all of them come the same way regardless of where you buy. ambient game soundtracks without any vocals rock my world. especially in the background while im cleaning up my apartment.

I thought that it did transition back to 1st person gently and smoothly. I swear I remember seeing that in the beta.
