By the way, the graphics in DX1 are horrible, but don't let that put you off. There's a HDTP (High-definition texture package) project going on for Deus Ex that will be able to replace the textures for every object in the game for higher definition ones. They're apparently nearly finished too. I wouldn't be surprised if they released it within a month.
I still play a lot of games with lol bad graphics (daggerfall / FF7/8), it doesn't bother me so much. I'm gonna guess with the mod I'll have to "obtain" a real copy.

awesome game, never managed to bring myself to pick the ending that doesnt involve plunging the world back into city states though, the other options just never appealed to my morals ~:)
Still probably the best FPS I've played, I do find myself comparing all otehr games to it, I mean the half life games are good, but the freedom and replayability on DE is ahrd to beat, the great this is you find new stuff every time you replay it (4 times all the way through for me)

My game is bugged I think. I'm at Hell's kitchen revisited but it seems that Paul hasn't respawned to talk to him so the MiB can attack. The MiB are just outside his empty room and are invincible. I haven't got any recent saves before that either!
I think the problem lies with the fact that Paul didn't contact me after sending the distress signal after aligning the satellites. :( Grr

i personally always wanted them to do a remake and re do the graphics of the game but i get the sense that the unique feel of deus ex would be lost if they did

I'm at where Evil said his game was bugged, Mines not bugged, but they mj12 guys are annoying to kill with my super pistoleer-hacker, I like jumped off the balcony and died a horrible death. 
I also see that the 2nd has nice graphics and a pretty much exact same storyline, but yes it's not as good. |

I replayed this late last year after not picking it up for years. Although it hasn't aged well graphically, the gameplay and story are still absolutely brilliant. I think that even allowing for it's age, it (along with Baldur's Gate II) are still among the greatest games ever made. DE: Invisible War was better graphically, but the story and our supposed *choices* felt very forced and lacking. It had exciting moments but was quite forgettable.
If I were rich enough, or a company were willing I'd love to see Deus Ex re-made with updated gfx, environmental audio and physics. While they're at it, maybe they could redo "Outcast" as well.

Funny. I never managed to avoid joining the Illuminati. For moral reasons, too.
One of the best games ever. Especially if you are into conspiracies. |

I have a lot of fun with that scene. Before I talk to Paul, which triggers the invasion of the MiB, I walk to the door and plant several LAMs and gas grenades on the walls. Then I either hide behind the couch or in Paul's secret closet. If I hide behind the couch, I get my sniper rifle or GEP gun ready, and as the grenades/LAMs start going off I start pew pewing. Chaos! LOLZ!
I do a similar thing when I'm on the plane - before I talk to Lebedev, I set a LAM on the wall right where Anna Navarre will appear. She usually blows up...LOLZ! |

I always (the one time i played ) picked the "join with computer and rule the world with pure logic" option. Seems to be what humanity needs sometimes... |

Yeah, I chose the computer ending first time. The Illuminati ending just replaces the dictator. Sure, he might be benevolent, but what about his successor? The "destroy the internet" ending never really appealed either. It would cause a lot of suffering in the short term, and eventually some bastard will rise to the top and seize power just like Bob Page did. At least merging with the computer ensures a benevolent ruler without worrying about successors, since the computer will last for as long as there are people to maintain it.
I've thought about this waaaaay too much. |

Surely you're talking about Deus Ex 2?
That was fail. Universal Ammo Supplies is the worst idea ever created by mankind. Ever.

As for the original Deux Ex, thats a masterpiece. Good duration, great story, awesome graphics (for the time).

I think maybe he's saying that Reven Cordelle mixed up the two, because how could anyone hate the ammo system in DX1.

Dragon Tooth Sword. Because it's blue and glowy and kills people in one swipe. |

Agreed. Dragon Tooth Sword allows you to sneak around without a flashlight. A silenced, scoped sniper rifle cannot be trifled with though.
Anyone else find out about the bug in Vandenburg AFB that allows you to get infinite skillpoints?

haHA that was a GREAT game. remember, gameplay > graphics
oh my, that game was full of intense hours of gaming... my only problem was, iirc, if you crouched, it looked as if you had your head between your knees
I was a great fan of the poison dart crossbow, but it got kinda useless for those metal spiders, so silenced assault rifle it was...
oh man, that was game was great... and the implants were cool too. im looking at you, system shock 2... |

Yeah, there was that keypad that gave you I think 500 SP every time you typed in the correct code. It got a bit tedious though, and I never stuck at it long enough to get master skill level in every field.

Hee hee...hit a soldier with a poison dart, then hide around the corner and watch him look for you and then collapse...lolz.
Metal spiders are extremely susceptible to the sabot rounds fired from the shotgun.
System Shock 2 was another AWESOME WTFBBQPWNZ game. |

Theres a COOP mode for it now, i **** you not. its even more awesome with a buddy or two (or even three, but not more ).
there are some bugs, that are mostly cured by saving and reloading instantly, (well, after you managed to get it to run, which takes some research) and towards the end theres a logic bug with a "bridge riddle". you can work around that bug, which makes the game crash real hard, by just making the host solve it and proceed to the next checkpoint (which is just a minute from there). after the checkpoint the other players will have passed the bugridden riddle , because they get warped to the same spot, after a doorswitch is used.
i go astray, but ss2, coop... do it. be aware the player models look ULTRA crap, but the rest of the game doesnt, if you use the hires textures pack(yes ss2 has that too) |

I'm up to my 2nd visit to versilife now. So I went back and now I'm running 2 games at the same time, the one guns blazing FPS style and the other stealth action style. I just like couldn't wait and replay the whole thing
Playing this game is great until you realize you've been sitting at your computer for 3 hours and you forgot to keep skills queued on you eve char. |

ok i just got DX 2...
...it sucks! the same ammo for all guns might be good in theory but the only reason to change gun is when you run out of ammo! the inventory you can but like 7 things in and you need to make due with 6 implants.
the only thing i like with the game is botdomination....that is fun
