Deus Ex

Now granted I am not too far into this game,but I can easily say that it is pretty great. Graphics in game have improved since the 8 bit blocky creatures we played with back in the 80's, and this game is a testament to how far we truly have come.  It has a movie like quality with a reasonable amount of cut scenes (and not so much that it is overdone like in Mass Effect 3).  The characters do tend to move in robotic ways, but this is a minor flaw in my opinion.  The game itself has many same qualities like Splinter cell or Metal Gear Solid where stealth plays a major role in determing whether you can win, but it also allows for many different options or paths in order to obtain your objectives.  There are many options available and sometimes what seems straight forward can get you into trouble.  Taking down enemies can involve either killing them or merely knocking them out, but if your position is revealed you do not simply lose, but you are able to save yourself by taking down the enemies in your area and continuing on if able to without dying.  Of course if you manage to progress through your mission without detection you receive quite the XP bonus.  The game also allows the player to really decide how to progress through the game.  The player is often given choices as to how they wish to proceed through the game which is a quality I always enjoy.  For fans who enjoy stealth games I would highly recommend this one.

~Cheers!
