And I had a whole page of reasons typed up why I loathe this game, but AOL timed out and I lost them all.
Anyway, in short - the fact that you are offered "choices" (Wow!) doesn't not even begin to compensate for the horrible game play and the ridiculously clumsy fighting mode.

Deus Ex is great, you've just got to "Think outside the box" more with it.

I wasn't too keen on Deus Ex either. You can interact with stuff, and make choices, but that doesn't stop it looking like a Master System game. It did have it's charms, but that was back in the 90's. Maybe it should have come out on a budget release then?

The first Deus Ex....hmm. Main flaws:

- Always at night
- The locations looked the same
- Combat was diabolical

But it was bold.

Ahh, then and then. I see. But why would they do that, eh? It sold loads, became a classic.
