Wow, thanks for the spoiler warning. With that said, they better have some multiple factions and endings and not have an all roads lead to Rome with only two endings. The endings were one of the cool things that made deus ex memorable, hopefully they wont screw it up. It looks promising, the only real complaint is that I hate prequels in anything, no matter what you do, it will not alter the world from the previous games, so does your actions really matter?

I didnt hate Deus Ex 2, but it didnt do the first game justice and pushed the story into a very different setting. I am not sure how i feel about Deus Ex 3... i am keeping my expectations low.
I'll settle for slightly optimistic. It sounds like they are trying to model the prequel after some aspects of the original. If it has skill points, weapon variety, and no damned universal ammo, as well as multiple objective paths, stealthy gameplay, and an intelligent plot... then it merits purchase.
They better not screw things up with DRM, though.

I'm not a big fan of how anti-corporate all the.. corporations have become. Nothing like seeing a huge budget movie funded by corporations, or like playing a graphics intense big name video game printed on a dvd that bought someone a yacht.
Can't we just go back to the old evil foreigners story line? Like, maybe the Mexicans have a devious plan with Kyrgyzstan to take over New York city with the aide of a fast talking pair of midgets and a robot?
