It's many months in the past now, but you probably remember watching the title sequence for Deus Ex: Human Revolution and thinking "This game is going to be awesome." That's exactly what it was supposed to do. More »

Seems to me that fan films inspired by video games can go one of two ways. Either they try to perform the stunts and action in titles like Batman: Arkham City or they focus on recreating the look of the fictional worlds in the games they draw from. More »

A video turned up on YouTube today saying it was behind-the-scenes footage of a Deus Ex "Live Action Short Film". And it looks way too slick/expensive to be a fan film. More »

What Mass Effect, Portal 2, Deus Ex, and BioShock have in common are memorable worlds and visual flairs. Not sacrificing either, artist Pieceoftoast traded the games' high-def graphics for pixels. The result is stunning. More »

I liked a whole lot of things about Deus Ex: Human Revolution, chief among them the way it felt like a loving tribute to so many different games that I love. It successfully combined a ton of familiar mechanics— Metal Gear-style stealth, Mass Effect-style dialogue, Deus Ex-style open levels, and even L.A. Noire-style interrogations. More »

We've looked at it not once, but twice here on Fine Art, but the art of Deus Ex: Human Revolution is so damn good I figured it was worth one more feature. Especially since we've got some all-new pieces to share. More »

This week, Eidos released the first downloadable content for their acclaimed role-playing game Deus Ex: Human Revolution, titled The Missing Link. We're all looking forward to some more Deus Ex, but is The Missing Link worthy of the brand? It's time to ask our guts what they think. More »

Have you noticed how Deus Ex: Human Revolution's cyborg hero Adam Jensen is a little like Jesus? Think about it. He dies (mostly) and comes back to life and then goes aout dispatching the wicked. That'd make David Sarif kinda like God, wouldn't it? More »

Comics aren't the centerpiece of comic-cons anymore. For better or worse, the nerd gatherings that bear that nomenclature feature all sorts of pop culture, but I guess "culture-con" doesn't roll off the tongue quite so appealingly. More »

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is a prequel to the original game that took years to develop, cost millions of dollars and drastically re-imagined the look of the universe. That was cool with many people, but if you prefer the original, you should check out this fan-made project. More »

Deus Ex: Human Revolution was a masterpiece which was only sullied by a number of poorly-designed, ill-fitting boss battles. The bad news is that the game's upcoming DLC will also include a boss battle. The good news? More »

I learned a lot of things while playing Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I learned that it is always better to stun than to kill (unless I'm fighting a boss battle), I learned that the easiest way to get from a rooftop to street-level anywhere in China is to jump, and I learned that if I run out of juice for my flashlight, I can slip it a power bar to keep it going. But one of the most unexpected things I learned was what, exactly, a funicular is. More »

Deus Ex: Human Revolution's "gold" filter may be a visual trademark, but it also affects the way you see the game world. A new mod for the PC version removes this (and makes a few other changes), and boy, do things look different. More »

Deus Ex: Human Revolution promotes stealth and tactical combat the majority of the time. The boss fights, though, pit you against super-tough foes in a small arena. So what's a player to do? This video demonstrates one of the more...succinct tactics available to make quick work of boss Namir. More »

A few days back, Plunkett posted a pretty funny video in which an intreped modder tweaked the original Deus Ex to look a lot more like its current-gen, gold-tinged offspring Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution was supposed to be out Sept. 8 in Japan, but it's now slated for sometime in Oct. The reason for the delay is that "prohibited images" were found in one place in the game. In its official statement, Square Enix did not clarify what the offending content was. More »

As I mentioned in my review, Deus Ex: Human Revolution is a game that comes to life in its details. The team at Eidos Montreal has shown a rare attention to detail and and willingness to engage in fan-service, filling the game with a nigh-on unprecedented number of hidden sight gags and easter eggs.

For the most part, the characters in Deus Ex: Human Revolution stick to the middle of the road. There's the tortured, hard-to read protagonist, the brilliant woman with a secret, the sassy British tech guy, and so on. But among them, one character sticks out—Letitia, a street informant that Adam Jensen meets in Detroit. More »

Ordinarily I scoff at the age-gate trailer, but here, I think it supplies a useful warning and a chance to say THERE IS VIDEO OF AN EYEBALL BEING CUT OPEN at the beginning. So look away for the first 16 seconds if you don't want to see that. More »

Yesterday, I wrote a post about some of the things I really like in Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Today, I thought I'd share a video demonstrating some of them. This video shows some highlights from the first mission in the game—stealth, hacking, cover, takedowns, conversation, negotiation, and exploration. Since it takes place near the start of the game, it's pretty spoiler-lite, though it does show a lot of the level, plus a few ways the mission can end. More »
