Thanks to the unrivalled uselessness of my own PC I was never able to play the original Deus Ex, and it’s always something I’ve regretted. Thanks to doing my own research and receiving assurances from friends, it quickly became clear that Deus Ex: Invisible War was definitely something a bit special. The First Person Shooter genre is slightly overpopulated to say the very least, particularly on the PC, and so its even more special that a game could receive so much hype and praise with so many other games for the consumer to choose from. I am however a sucker for hype, and despite never playing the original, I was still delighted when I got my hands on a copy of the XBox version of the sequel.
