@Maintenance Renegade In this option the game plays itself?

refrigeraptor Players also rated it highly, but yes, let’s attack media because hail trump...

@@theespatier4456 lol people were criticizing games journos long before Trump became president

The most baffling part is that TimeSplitters came out 5 years before, and did the "cinematic FPS campaign" thing about a million times better. Hell, Half-Life did it better. Also, I'm laughing at the guy blaming Trump for games journalism being shitty since the beginning of time. I was 10 years old reading Official Xbox Magazine and Electronic Gaming Monthly and even I could tell then that journos were not all there. It became easy once you played a game for yourself, then read a review later and realized that all of their criticisms made no sense.

People thought it was a new thing for Games Journo to be bad. It's always been bad.

Doi Bantikov Eh if your not a fan of that type of game I see can that argument I remember wondering around the first level feeling and being super bored for an hour but I kept playing because I wasn’t going to waste the money and once I hit midgame i started to enjoy its strengths

@@dirpyturtle69 yeah but there's a difference between bot liking it and saying it's not fun. Journalists are supposed to be professional. I know video game journalists are often not professional at all, and make article based on their feeling and rarely on a technical analysis of the game, but come on, that's just unecessary at this point.

@@Sir_Bucket technical analysis is when the magazine agree with me

@@TheSoulHarvester ?

Idk dude if you cut out the plot of Deus Ex its a pretty shit game

That reminds me how my grandma learned a good chunk of English by listening to the Beatles.

@@thecosmic8248 my friends' mom learned English by watching Spanish Tv with English Closed Captioning and then English with Spanish captions

Old days

Same here played this as a kid. Coming from MOH and other PS2 shooters this gave me a plethora of gameplay options. I still consider this a benchmark for "modern" shooters.

Same. I remember playing this a lot as a kid and loving it

What happened there?

@@michaelandreipalon359 A military commander who's completely out of touch with reality keeps sending guys in mechs designed for anti-personnel work on search and destroy missions to hunt rebels down after using regular infantry who are wholly underfunded and barely trained to draw them out of hiding in the tropical band of a planet two ethnic groups have been fighting over because a larger interstellar government decided to stick some techno-fundamentalists there as well. BattleTech gets pretty wild.

Interesting, will check that out.

@@michaelandreipalon359 Can't recall who did it, but there's an audiobook reading of it somewhere on YT if that's your style

Or Darkest of Days.

The reviewer is dead to me.

IGN's reviews, everyone

oy this was my childhood growing up

It's IGN, the special needs kid of gaming sites

OutlawKas in multiplayer it has a 3 shot fire mode.

you'd think making the bullet kill them would be a better idea

whats logic here

That literally happened in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 where the Confundus Charm was turned into a sniper rifle.

@blackrave404 sounds like you've never heard of Kitchen Gun. (Search for it, honestly)

@Maintenance Renegade Nah, you can mooch off a daughter too if you don't have any sons. Better practice your son-in-law berating.

Going back to China

This comment is seriously underrated.

LOL!!!!! Mandalore viewers are the best.

Chinese have a lot of hells.

Noted, but... that's not how vents work, you weird game.

I didn't know that even happened. I played Chaos Theory and then Double Agent right after and only got a few missions in because it was such a letdown. Having a weird console version sounds interesting.

I don't remember it all that well, but I think you might actually like this version of Double Agent more if the main one disappointed you, because it had none of the DA mechanics and so was more like classic Splinter Cell. I don't remember hating it, but it's noticeably outsourced and even at the time I was struck by how bizarre it was to have a "last gen version" of a game be made concurrent with the "real" one.

Man the original xbox version is beautiful and a lot of fun.

It has all the same mechanics from chaos theory and is awesome. You'll love it mandalore

it's the same with ghost recon AW on the Xbox and ps2 well

I dont have to remember it, because i never stopped thinking about it.

I loved it as well ^_^

Same xd

This is in my top 5 best games in 2020

I just remember the commercial with the group of guys shouting the title at the end

I'll take the GEP gun

You need bolters?

@@magosexploratoradeon6409 Lol under rated comment

Unatco? Savage.

@@magosexploratoradeon6409 I need ALL the bolters.

I think.. that is the point of the game : | ( I think there was a mod with a better translation)

It's written in futurespeak, that's why it's so weird. The "improved" translation kills the atmosphere of the game.

Sure, and Joyce, Pynchon or McCarthy are just horrible writers.

Played for 20 minutes and like 10 of them were spent in a single vent going in a straight line, what were they thinking?

When I first got it I abandoned it on the Mars(?) level, with the bunker, the controls were a bit unintuitive, the gameplay was hard, the story didn't lead me properly and I had no idea how I was suppose to un-hack myself. I haven't touched it for a year or so. But then I returned back to it, to see it with a fresh mind. I've played for 49 hours since then, and I dare to say, it's actually very fun and interesting, IF you dedicate a small time to learn/understand it (which I didn't do in the first run). Story wise, it's complicated... Without resorting to the wiki or forums it's pretty vague. Looks more philosophical if you ask me. But to me, that is actually the best part of the game. It doesn't have the same cliche storytelling, yet remains self-effacing. I just want to see Mandalore's view on this game, since he does have a sense to finding more to and in games then there is, while delivering on an interesting and comprehensible presentation.

They remind me of the Dune movie credits. Not because they're similar, but because of how out of place they feel.

The credits seem to belong in a different game, where the cost of war is examined in a mature way that provides a commentary on the ultimate futility of combat. Instead, it’s in Project: Snowblind.

"Die motherfu-" *gets roundhouse kicked*

I also enjoyed the mess that was Invisible War. I just have a soft spot for the series. I haven't played Mankind Divided yet, have you? I'd love to know what you think if you did. It's always nice to get the thoughts on the game from big fans of the series.

Indigo Gaming what do you think of the newer Deus Ex games?

I like Invisible War also. It's not a very good game and its PC port is *horrendous* but it's still a fun and very charming game.

Command and conquer never had a console version, same with baldur's gate. 3 and RA got ports later on but they had PC priority.

@@icarus9661 But Baldur's Gate did have a console version. It was called Dark Alliance... along with the sequel.

Earbuds & Incognito same I loved it

Exactly

One of the greatest games EVER

I had to pause the video when I saw that. Why do non-gamers do game journalism?! It'd be if like someone who only watches Real Housewives started watching the Lord of the Rings and started complaining there wasn't enough bitchiness. 7/10.

What suprised me the most is the fact that Snowblinds main hero is basically diet Adam Jensen while the Villain is a combination of the Insane inventor of augmentations and Jaron Namir (the Red Muscle suit guy) even Adam Jensens superior had a metal arm.

Legomaster5264 uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhh? Is anyone gonna tell him?

Tell me what?

@@Legomaster-nj4oo Columbine was a 1999 school shooting that left 12 people dead, It was one of the first widely reported shootings in the us. It had a huge cultural impact, and it along with 9/11 left us in a state of paranoia. There were several copycats, and it put mass shootings into the spotlight.

@@Legomaster-nj4oo you are thinking of the *Combine* not Columbine.

Easily my favorite part. He looks so cartoony.

Hmm. Or the terrible sound and music. Or the stupidly easy difficulty level. Or the terrible design. Or the huge glaring goal markers.

It was the start of grey boring shooters around that year so not surprised the braindead reviewers gave it a good score

Because it was easy enough for game journalists to play

Still no answer...

where is it from?

@Black Ice not at all, according to me

darkspire91 I had a ton of fun with the demo, never got the full game though.

I had fun playing years ago

Teknopathetic. It was used in Jet Set Radio Future, which is where I first heard it.

Game journos were indeed always full of shit. It's just an industry that doesn't have much regulations or standards put in place, simple as that. I mean, try to imagine it from the perspective of the producer for a magazine. How do you tell who is a "good reviewer" or games journalist and who isn't? It's a little bit easier to tell who's a worthwhile journalist nowadays with the advent of the internet, but on the flip side it's also easier for anyone to post their stupid opinion and for it to go viral.

Yeah, and I blame the PC. And the sky is blue. And diseases make you sick. What's your point?

Are you talking about the original Deus Ex? This game looked and sounds like it sucks big time.
