Critical opinion: Deus Ex Human Revolution is good

August 23rd, 2011

Here's what people are saying:

  • A dark, cool, and beautiful revival of an incredible game.—PC Gamer
  • A worthy sequel to one of the most celebrated PC games of all time. Aside from a few, easily overlooked missteps, this is easily one of the most enjoyable games of the year.—The Escapist
  • For gamers who loved the first game, there is much to enjoy and rediscover here. Those new to the series you will find it nothing short of a revelation.—Game Planet
  • The problematic gunplay and annoying stealth takedown mechanics keep the game from greatness, but if played a certain way, Human Revolution captures the spirit of its predecessors and can be a blast. Even if it's not a masterpiece, this entry lays the groundwork for a promising future for the series.—Game Informer
  • A truly outstanding dark and gritty, cyberpunk, action role-playing experience. This title by Eidos Montreal lives up to the hype and then some. Whether you're a fan of the sci-fi, role-playing, first person/third person shooter, or the stealth-action genre Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the game for you.—user review
  • I strongly recommend the game, because of the great atmosphere, story and interactive choices.—user review

Sounds like a winner. Deus Ex: Human Revolution is out now.

Man... this one looks like a major winner. I'll be making my judgement soon, but I expect to be getting this one soon.

The trailer for this actually made me want to play it but when I saw the gameplay I kinda decided not to.

The TF2 promotional items were nice. Game looks too graphics intensive for my poor rig unfortunately.

It looks kinda easy to run for my m15x :D I mean, look at the edges everywhere. I mean, there are none :D

The graphics look nice but, not the best. Somehow, these kind of graphics are not my style but that doesn't mean I won't play it :D

It takes 47 muscles to frown,and 17 to smile.. It only takes 3 to end a life.. One shot, one kill.

I am going to pass on the game for now. I'll probably wait until it goes on sale on Steam since there are so many games coming out that I would rather buy starting in September. I never played the first one so I am not as drawn to this game as other people who played the first would be.

Does anyone here actually have the game yet? If so what are your overall impressions of it.

It is a good game. There are some technical problems though. Load times are 20-30 seconds even if its just from a death. Plenty of graphical glitches too, I have a monster system so it is not on my end.

the graphics in my opinion look like a mix between F.E.A.R. and rainbow six vegas.
