I recently found the game Deus Ex for the PC and I am not sure if I should play it. I never knew I had this game and forgot how it ended up in one of my drawers. Just wondering, is it really a good game and is it worth playing now even though its old and dated?

its a timeless classic that can be played at anytime. i just finished another playthrough. the one thing that might piss you off is the AI which isnt the best

It almost sounds as if you are joking.

But if you aren't, you should play this Masterpiece, just don't let the early part of the game put you off.

Well i put it this way, i love the game but when i saw it to my friends they were like "What? Thats it, it seems pretty borring, it lacks action and good fps elements plus very dates graphics" So to enjoy deus ex make sure you dont care about graphics and release its more of an agen simulator with slight sneaking elements and more of an rpg than a fps. Sure you got guns but that does not mean that you should not sneak a bit or hack terminals and use turrets, or gas grenades, besides if your weapon skills are low you are not gonna do much damage anyway. Just make sure that you make the right choices o how you wanna play. I reccomend gettng the sniper rilfe and adding your skills to rilfes and pistols before you start the game.

It's a good action/rpg that first used many of the morality and problem solving elements seen in games today like Mass Effect and Fallout 3.

I just started playing a few days ago. The AI can be a bit odd since the game is so old and I have become used to modern AI. Trying to look past it though.

I loved it the first couple of times I played it. I did try to go back and play it last year but couldn't play it. It is very dated. All I can say is just give it a shot.

Don't ask too many questions, just play the game. You don't want any spoilers and unnecessary hype.

You might wanna try the HD texture mod to make the graphics a little easier on the eye...

If you are older than 12, then you, sir, need to turn in your gaming license immediately!

But that's the best part. Seriously TC, you must accept that this is one of the most important video games (and I specifically use the phrase video games) ever. Do not hesitate to play it. Do not be a [expletive adjective] [expletive noun] and complain about the visuals.

To answer the TC's question: For God's sake. yes.

i recently bought this game off amazon for 6$ new and have yet to start it, i hope to soon though. also once your done you can try the Nameless Mod for deus ex, it was this years MODDB single player mod of the year. an epic 30 hour mod i guess, 1000's of voiced lines and all kinds of crap. peace

Once you're done with it you'll realize why it's near universally believed to be one of the best games ever made.

It can be hard getting into a really old game if you didnt play it back in the day because you hold no nostalgia towards it.

In that mj12 bunker? No not really, but after you get out, the levels become more "city" like and bigger with more exploration, you can say that there is a good portion of the game evolving there and later on you get to Paris where it gets even better.
