I see that this is on sale over on Steam this weekend. I know it got good critic reviews, but anyone here play it extensively and have some feedback. I'm kinda in the mood for a special ops/spy/sleuthing sort of game at the moment.

I have not played it. But I have yet to hear any negative comments on it.

Feedback = Kick-ass. Buy it.

Well ok then. I will. Its only $7 after all.

It's a good mix of Stealth & Action RPG. Fun game.

Absolutely worth $7.

An hour in and its not too shabby. Great story line so far. Although the controls were diffinately designed for a console controller.

I also picked this up at the Steam sale over the summer for 9.00...haven't started it yet though, of course. For those who have, how many hours total gameplay can you get out of it?

It's a great game! I know, my son, Elias Toufexis, does the voice of the lead character, Adam Jensen. I don't usually go for shooters, but this one has such a cool story line. And, of course, my son does great voice acting

If I ever figure out how to throw a stun grenade, I might make a better spook.

"Two in the head and you know they're dead."

I didn't always take the most stealthy approach. ;)

I mean I literally don't know how to throw the freaking things. According to the all knowing intrawebs, I need to push "g". Going to test this theory out now.

Yeah, pretty sure 'G' is the hotkey for tossing grenades.

Just go into the options screen and look through the list of keybinds to find out what they are. I gotta do this with most games these days as the quick intros don't tell you all the hotkeys (and no physical manual with them listed).
