My Deus Ex: HR 1st impressions...

[HAVOK]

Two words: MASS EFFECT 2......actually thats 2 words and a number but its ok. This game play almost EXACTLY like the Mass Effect games. If you loved those, and I did, then you'll love this game. Cover system, weapon mods, augmentation upgrades, shitload(thats a technical term) of side quests. Its got it all. So far, so good......

this is the first game since the first Mass Effect that I have had to fight myself to stop playing. I stayed up till 3am last night and had to be up at 6am and I didnt care because it was awesome. Im doing a non-lethal playthrough for my first time. My only complaint is that guard patrols are way to predictable.

Agreed. I will be up all night long playing this.

ok i love the mass effect series but now comes the difficult question? Xbox or PS3???? any suggestions?

I've yet to hear any differences in either version that might give one the edge, and I just watched a video comparison and the graphical differences were so minor that you really had to search to find it. I didn't even realize the video was split screen at first, I thought it was going to switch back and forth so that should show you how minor differences are.

I'd say it should come down to personal preference then. Which controller feels most comfortable in your hand or maybe if one system is running low of hard drive space or something. Or if you can get a sale price on one over the other, that's always a huge determining factor in a case like this

ok simple geek math in order....

mass effect = Xbox360 = Deus EX....too easy.. normally i wouldn't have the option of choice but the PX actually has BOTH!! OMG!!! what a shocker..

Old school style boss fights, something that is missing in modern games and they are so full of win in Deus Ex.

[HAVOK]

I dont know about the 360 version, but the ps3 copy needs a MINIMUM 3GB of HD space

One thing that bothers me however, ive noticed ALOT of the hidden trophies actually require you to "Do the wrong thing". Make the douchebag choice...trophy pops. Now this is quite irritating for me as doing a "Good" playthrough. Guess I'll be a dick the second time around....

[HAVOK]

My favorite tactic so far: taking cover, equipping the 10mm pistol, then lining up the horizontal reticle on the targets head til it turns red. Then a quick pop-out and BAM! Headshot.

I guess I'll leave the boxes alone...

rofl. It seems like everytime im trying to find a way around guards I end up finding 3 or 4 different roots into the area im already in. When they say take your time and explore they mean it. O and make sure you check behind everything that is against a wall, vents are your best friend. Makes me feel like Gordon Freemen.

Yea ive ran into the same situation a couple times. I need to upgrade my arm augs so i can move those large garbage bins. I have a feeling theyre hiding entry/exit routes
