Recently in my corpchat a fellow corpmate has made the ridiculous claim that Deus Ex is only 75% as good as Half-life is. I believe Deus Ex to be better than Half-Life around the 120% range if not more, although Half-Life is still one of the best games ever made.
So basically I ask you OOPE, who is right? Which game do you prefer?

Infinitely Deus Ex.
HL is nothing but an over rated FPS, > IMHO <.

That is a tough call but if we factor in the impact the sequel(s) had then Half Life wins.

Half life, because of its ability to make you actually give a damn about its characters.
Deux Ex didnt feel that way for me.

I'm curious, what "characters" were there to give a damn about in Half life 1?

There is a half-life 2, you know.
Half life 1 was mostly a linear shooter. A very, very good linear shooter, but IMO hl2 blows it out of the water.

I know, but this thread is only about half life 1 and deus ex as standalone, it wouldn't be fair to compare the two series after the abortion that was deus ex 2.

Quite frankly I still enjoyed hl1 more than Deus Ex, but I'm not into the whole roleplay thing.

The Half-Life games, while good, are nothing compared to DX.

Deux Ex (and system shock 2 for that matter) is a much better game, not matched even by any games of the last few years. Even Bioshock was a poor attempt, no where near the options or depth.
HL is a excellent series with some top storytelling however.

DX is one of those games I couldn't get into. I don't know why, there was nothing bad about it... It just wasn't gripping

Deus Ex is an excllent game, but its basically just 'look how many cool options we can throw into an FPS'.
Half-Life is ... Half-Life. It is made of awesome and win and style.

Deus Ex had some good parts, I liked the way I got odd comments after the mission when I disturbed ladies in the toilet  Stuff like that are just nice touches in a game.
However, I didn't come close to finishing DE, and I've played HL through a few times, and all the sequels/expansions.
I'd say that while DE had some really nice touches, it just wasn't as fun/interesting/entertaining as HL.

half life is more like a platform for multiplayer gaming and other games, Deus Ex is more like a singleplayer, of course it will have a better storyline, comparing these is like comparing a war book with a scenario airsoft game.

Half life was made in the Quake engine.
I saw no mods for half-life based on the half-life story.
Your informationz is wrong!

So I was wondering wouldn't it be nifty if instead of being pwnedgato I would be called Saint Gato or Ibrahim?
