This is the best game ever made, better than Half Life, Half Life 2, Oblivion, Doom- nothing can compete- music is fantastic and when the story is over, you feel like JC is your friend. A game never created before or since. The graphics are old but it is worth it BUY THIS GAME it is unforgetable.

This game is over six years old. And it beats everything I've played until now.
Firstly, though, this game is not a shoot 'em up and not Quake like. This is not Tombraider.
This game is immersive. You go into the game's environment, and you start to care about the characters in the game. You get a sense of wonder about the environments and the scenarios.
You will like this game if you like spy movies and you like games with multiple solutions.

If you haven't had the privilege to play this brilliant game, do yourself a favor: get it as soon as possible and play it. You certainly won't be dissapointed if you like RPG or FPS games at all. I won't go into detail regarding the game and its features, for many users have already explained them. However, I do have to say I envy anyone who will play this for their first time - You are in for a great ride.
 Don't even think about it, just push "Add to Cart." March 28, 2006

This is a game for the cerebral gamer. My first impression of it was on an extremely overpowered computer (a 2005 performance Toshiba) and it seemed almost like a toy or a tech demo at first. It takes a little bit of time to get into the game, but I would compare it to System Shock 2 or Splinter Cell. There's significant depth to the story, and the gameplay itself is engrossing once one gets past the fact that it bears less resemblance to a traditional shoot-em-up game than to an RPG while it retains elements of each. The character is not pre-built, but the player has to make periodic choices about how to progress in the game.
There are multiple paths and both necessary and unnecessary objectives in the missions, as well as an intriguing plot and unique characters. The player can use brute force and strong-arm tactics, sneak around the enemy via hiding spots, take the roof, come in the front way, play it tough and be selfish with resources, or be diplomatic in his approach.
All in all, it's quite engrossing - and as frustrating as anything can be at times, since a decision early in the game can carry unfavorable consequences later. A rather realistic aspect of the plot is that it is often not possible to go back and remake the decision - but fortunately there are save slots for that!
Note that this game is based on the Unreal engine, and that it is six years old. Hence, if you're looking for the fanciest graphics and sounds or special fighting moves, you'll be disappointed; if you just want an engrossing story that you can play and replay with satisfaction, I don't know of any game quite like Deus Ex.
