This release is what's gonna make gaming in 2011 for me. Deus ex is right up there with metal gear, such an epic series! I just hope they make the plot as captivating as the first one.

some more skyrim info:
Skyrim General!

Confirmed info:

* New classless leveling system in which every individual skill leveled contributes to overall level
* Each level gives perks
* Levels go from 1-50, though 50 is “soft-capped,” which means leveling after 50 is possible, just slower

* Mysticism skill removed
* There are 18 skills this time around, which is down from 21 in Oblivion and down from 27 in Morrowind

* Story takes place 200 years after Oblivion and is set in the titular region of Skyrim, which is north of the Imperial City
* The king is dead, so there is an ongoing civil war
* Focuses on dragons returning to the world, and the player, a “dragonborn”, trying to stop a dragon god
* Five huge cities, and better variation in dungeons
* Dragons can attack the cities
* Combat is supposed to be more tactical than previous franchise installments
* Each hand has to be assigned a specific function, such as magic or weapons
* Emphasis on improving combat

* Improved third-person view (thank god)
* There is an option to turn off the HUD in first-person view
* Conversations won’t be a static shot anymore, as the people the player is talking to will move around and continue with chores or tasks, as they would in real life

* Quests are going to be more dynamic and based on how a player builds their character and their individual actions
* Quests will try to lead the player to places in the world they haven’t yet been
* Example: If a player drops a weapon in the street, a civilian may find said weapon and try to bring it back to the player, which may open up other events

* There will be weapon forging
* Players can dual-wield weapons however they like
* Players can duel NPCs on the street
* Finishing moves will be added to combat
* There aren’t many details yet, but players can perform jobs, such as tailoring, cooking, farming, mining, woodcutting, blacksmithing

* Fast-travel is back
* Players can now sprint using stamina

* Obligatory graphical and animation upgrade
* Character creation will feature customizable body parts

too for some eye candy

wow, huge! Lol mysticism was such a useless skill. only thing I don't like about the new ones is the fast travel. That's where morrowind got it right imo. Glad to see they're updating the combat system.

nice one, this is the only video game ive been looking forward to for a long time.

[__________]

Yeah I'm looking forward, even though I haven't looked at the trailer or anything. I don't really want to spoil the surprise!

If its half as good as the original Deus Ex, it might be the best game of 2011. I've never been able to get Deus Ex 2 to work on any of my PCs, but I heard it was shit.

We need more games like the original.
Thinking, shooting and upgrading combined with a good script, non-linear gameplay, real-world locations, good level design and amazing attention to detail all add up to a great game!

i played deus ex 2 on my xbox when i was bout 13 and thought it was fucking awesome, played the first one on my pc a few years later and thought that it too, was fuckin awesome. so hopefully the third is also . .

and all set in a wonderfully realised sci-fi future.

[firky]

It came out on the PC first in about 1999 then was ported to Xbox and PS, I thought?

[AllNightDayDream]

At least I know i'm gonna be able to play a new deus ex!

Have you played Bioshock?

[kruptah]

Have you played Bioshock?

Yeah, I didn't think much of it really. I don't know how it even held my attention long enough to get to the final boss.
Bioshock has linear gameplay, boring level design and a boring script. Fair enough the idea behind the game was great, it looks pretty and there was definitely a lot of attention to detail; its just a boring game. Not comparable to Deus Ex at all if you ask me.

As for the delayed release date, that doesn't bother me.
Delayed release = more development = chance of a quality game increases.

The first Deus Ex is without a doubt my favourite game of all time. Absolutely adore it, completed it more than any other game ever, as recently as a couple of years ago, even when it was about 10 years old it shat on everything else around.

The second one was so bad in comparison, watered down for the casual console market. All the best bits were taken out and all that was left was a slightly above average shooter. As a result I'm trying not to get my hopes up with this one, but those videos did cause me to mess myself. I don't ever play computer games anymore (bar Fifa with mates) but I am ALL OVER this.
