Welcome to the second ever edition of "Gamer's Corner", this little segment will be where myself will others review the newest games, including pictures, hints, tips and much more.
The second game under review is "Deus Ex: Human Revolution." Choice, many games provide the illusion of it; fewer deliver it in any meaningful way. Deus Ex: Human Revolution is one of those few: a first-person shooter/stealth/espionage/role-playing hybrid that allows you to overcome obstacles as you see fit
Dues Ex: Human Revolution was a wonderful game. It is not your typical run in guns blazing FPS, unless you want it to be that is. That is the fun of the game, you can charge in or search around for the hidden alternate routes that are found almost everywhere. There are many secret areas to be found some with special goodies such as weapon and ammo caches or merely a few credits. This game also has many exciting plot twists and turns, and the choices you make will affect your gameplay later on.
The combat and weapons offer you the option to charge in or use a more stealthy approach. If you prefer not to kill all your enemies you don’t have to, some of stealth weapons, such as the tranquilizer rifle and stun gun, offer you the choice to play through the entire game without killing a single enemy, with the exceptions of bosses. But you can also chose the usual weapons, such as combat rifles, hand pistols, and shotguns, if you prefer the more old fashioned kill everything insight way of playing. There are also weapon mods that can be found and purchased throughout the game to customize and enhance your weapons.
The game doesn’t offer much melee combat aside from a few take downs you can perform when close to or sneaking up on an enemy either knocking them unconscious or killing them. There are a few special take downs you can perform if you chose the right augments such as breaking through a wall to snap someones neck. The augmentation system also adds variety to the game.
You can customize your character’s abilities to help your playing style and also help you access secret routes through the use of Praxsis points that are gained through leveling or bought at Limb Clinics. But the augments aren’t necessary to complete the game although they are very helpful, if you want you can run through the game finishing the main quest as quickly as possible, getting minimal Praxisis points, which will make the game slightly more challenging, or stick around doing side missions to get more experience thus earning more levels and Praxsis points.
The multiple secret areas, play style options,and augmentation choices, as well as the different choices you make throughout and the alternate endings Dues Ex:Human Revolution offers replay ability as you never know what you might find or you can do differently from previous plays.
All in all I would say Dues Ex: Human Revolution is definitely worth buying or at least renting.
Much better from last time. I see you discussing combat and gameplay and not just the story (although in this instance that deserves a lot of credit). Keep your reviews along this sort of structure and they'll be more readable and to many people more relevant.
That said, good game, but I dont think any review on Earth does this game any justice. It's friggin Deus Ex.
