We’ve been going a bit Deus Ex: Human Revolution crazy around these parts. Judging by your responses to Mitch’s review, I’m sure you all are doing the same. For my part, the game might be at my list for favorite game of the year at the moment, but that could easily change once I finish it and some other games start landing in my lap over the next few months.
While many people enjoy the game, there are a few having some fun at its expense in relation to the original Deus Ex. Take Deus Ex Unreal Revolution, for instance, where the original game is mashed up with cues from Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It’s a little bit too on the nose with the whole “new games suck and old games are the best ever” train, but it still managed to have some pretty funny bits in it.
It’s interesting. As aware as I am of all of DXHR’s faults, I can totally get past them. As one review I read mentioned, that’s the difference in a game that’s well designed as opposed to well made. It’s also what happens when a developer takes risks and chances during development.
So what did you guys think about this? For the lulz?
Lol, very funny.
I AM of the belief, however, that recharging health is better than scrounging around for health packs.
That “PROTIP: This is a dead body” and “Well done” killed me though.
Haha, love it. It is interesting to think back how much tougher Deus Ex was. No radar, no guide system. Sometimes you’d get a picture in your inventory as a map, but they never really helped. Such a different game. Love them both.
