Deus Ex: Human Revolution

[Bison]

"g" was the key.  I threw the grenade stunned the group and then got mowed down by one hiding in the corner.  Need to more recon next time.

I just picked this up for silly money last night.  Played about an hour and I'm loving it.  The story is good Bison, I agree with you, I was getting quite immersed.  Jensen is a cool character, I'm enjoying playing that role.  So far it's really living up to the original game, and I can already see where I could have approached the same situation in different ways.  It's nice to break in somewhere then spot a vent and realise there was a completely different way of going about it.

The graphics are excellent and, incredibly, it runs as smooth as poo on my crap PC.  The programmers must be truly gifted to have achieved that; Metro 2033, for example, only barely runs for me with all the settings turned down to minimum.

Where did you pick it up Huw?

[Huw the Poo]

It was one of the flash sales on Steam yesterday.  It's up to £9 now but that's still a steal for a game this good.

Thanks! Now I just have to coax my wallet out of it's hiding place. It gets very stressed out this time of year...  :D

Heh.  What I did was I put some money into my Steam Wallet, then vowed to only buy games from that during the sale.  It makes it slightly easier to exercise some discipline!
