I found this cheap the other day, and remembering the rave critical acclaim, I tried it.


But the thing is, although I could understand SOME darkness in the game, this is taking pisss! You can barely see what anything is. You walk into a wall and all you see is pitch black. You turn around looking for some light to see where you are. No dice.

So you turn and hold forward until you think you can see something.


Now personally, it's so poor that I'm starting to think my set-up is wrong with the graphics card... I mean people loved this game, and I don't care what difference of opinions people have, no one would find the game I played fun!


Anysway, if anyone has an inkling of what I'm saying then any help would be appreciated. :-)


See how I always wind up here whenever I buy a PC game?
Stupid bugged things! :-D

I agree with my fellow retard Monkeyman. Every misson that I played seemed to offer the same "linear non-linearity". An option to storm in and get involved in a shoot out, a sneaky route avoiding conflict and an informant who can be bribed into giving you a way through.

And there was no ability for my operative to moon people in a provokative manner, in order to lure them into my traps.

A huge oversight.

Thats because you are retarded. You are either thick or have a short attention span if you fail to see the glory of Deus Ex.

There's a topic in the PC Gaming forum about how bad this game really is. All it ever gave you were a few choices. The graphics were MegaDrive standard, and the shooting was awkward. The plot may have been good, but the game was a bit naff - should have made it into a book!
