Status : Online | That's a good question, I've been wondering about that for a long time. There are so many things packed into this game, it's tough to categorize. I just call it one of the best games I've ever played, and I've played alot. I wish that more adventure gamers would give this one a shot. I took the gamble and it paid off in spades!
Hey, free dirt!

| Deleted User | A very nice game, indeed. It is a lot of fun to play as a stealthy type of character but then it is also fun to try every kind. I'm looking forward to "eus Ex 2" when it comes out.
As for what kind of game it is, it's usually put into a "Sci-fi RPG" category, same as the "Fallout".
By the way, another interesting stealth game coming out, called "Thief 3", will be using "eus Ex 2" game engine as its basis.

Status : Online | Like many games designed by Warren Spector - System Shock and Thief - Deus Ex is hard to categorize. Action/RPG you could call it.
His games are among the very best.

NO SOUP FOR YOU!

| Deleted User | I was going to say that Bob, but you got there first! Didn't Warren have a little input into it too? I read that he did...

Status : Online | MB: What are you talking about exactly? Ion Storm? He is on the board of directors there.
I was majorly misinformed I noticed. Warren Spector produced all of the titles, but it wasn't his idea or his programming at all. Only Deus Ex is his "child".
