Deus Ex: Human Revolution for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

Dues Ex is quality, top-tier game. Not a best of 2011, but certainly a LOT of fun to play. Specifically:
- Descent upgrade system for weapons keeps you excited when you find that new damage or capacity clip upgrade.
- Good character skill tree upgrade system. Some of the attainable upgrades really make a difference in how your character plays.
- Good sized map and open game-play.
- Clear indicators where you need to go to advance a main or side mission.

Overall, a lot of fun... at some points became a little redundant, but that's a reality with any game these days.

This game brings a much needed overhaul to the way we play FPS, the cover system is the best gaming has come up with. Several ways to accomplish your mission (apart from boss battles which are easy if you stock up on ammo). You can augment your characters abilities to be a ninja, a weapon and agility expert, a sly talking computer hacking genius or just a mixture on how you play. takes about 2-3 days to beat if you have a job/school but worth multiple play thoroughs, i own it and am on my 5th one

I don't always write reviews, but when I do. I prefer Deus Ex.

On a more serious note, I am surprised this game does not have a higher rating. Easily one of the best games this year. There are multiple ways to do almost every single objective in the game. Gameplay is exciting and smooth throughout. Bust in shooting, or sneak through invisible, the choice is totally up to you.

Perhaps the best part of this game is the storyline. You actually feel like a part of it. It sucks you in like so many games fail to do. You actually have choices instead of predetermined paths.

No doubt in my top 5 games of all time. Great, Great, Great.

This game is a must have....great story, massive maps and multiple ways to play it. (non-linear platform). The story can alter depending on your choices and actions. The take downs are awesome and weapons are nice. No Melee weapons.

The GUI is well developed in detail. The weapon inventory system has a feel like Resident Evil and Metal Gear.

The AI is smart but coded with a pattern. Another words, you observe the enemy long enough you can recognize where hes going. If this was super random, the intensity would be hot.

The only thing I would of wanted different was multiple outfits. He wears the same gear.

I was super impressed by this game....once you finish it....wait for the credits to end.

Let me put this straight before i go into detail: this was a GREAT game. Not only did it allow me to upgrade and purchase new skills so that my fighting style could be curved into an offensive or stealthy way, but it also immersed me into a world. And thats what makes this game great, THATS what reminds me of games like Fallout 3 and Red Dead Redemption where you really felt like part of the society.

Graphics/Visual: That a flaw at all (hah rhyme). Sure, there may have been tiny graphics bug ONCE in the game, but it was easily avoidable and i didn't really notice it until i looked straight at it. Sound is crisp and you wont notice any bugs in that.

Gameplay: Do you rush into the room, guns a'blazing? Or do you sneak into a side room by by hacking a computer so that you can find a safer, more quieter, route? The game lets you make decisions like that all the time and sometimes exploring both paths grants you rewards.

Overall: The game immersed me in a world and storyline no other. Sure, there have been cyborg-future-reinassance scenarios before but this one truly deserves a place in the "Memorable PS3 Games" category i believe.

THANKS FOR CHECKING ME OUT ON.... GAMEFLY!
:food'n'drink:

This is one of those games that you cant stop playing for hours. When i started playing this game i was immedietly attached the graphics are great the story is awesome and the voice acting also good but not great.
When you start of the game you are instantlly hooked you just wanna know what's going on and keep on and keep on playing. My favorite part of the game is the way you can go about the levels differently you can do stealth by being sneaky and finding back ways to your objective or you can just rush in and kill every one in sight. I would highly recommend this game for anyone its awesome.

a good game with a very good story. gameplay is very smooyh and easy to use. the biggest drawback is the clunky menu and level up system. also what is the deal with the battery powered arms? that, gotta be one of the dumbest ideas in awhile. otherwise a fun game to play i would recomend it to others.

I don't rate games very often....BUT I had to on this one. Bottom line was this: This is one of the few games that comes along every few years that you actually get sad when you get close to finishing it because of how great the story/journey/gameplay are. Graphics are surreal, and the attention to detail is amazing. I sincerely hope there will be some DLC for this game in the near future. A MUST play for gamers inti this genre....you won't be disappointed!

This game is from my opinion the best game so far this year.

Ill begin with the graphics which are more than fantastic and you will probably get amazed by everything you see in the beginning.
So far the game has not been a little boring for a blink of an eye it has it all, Tactic, shooting, action, great story.

Ill begin with Tactics which is extremely important, its not just you and captain price attacking a base with 100s of russian thugs shooting in all directions except from yours. This is harder than that and you have too use the so called "brain" which i prefer... Here you can hack their systems sneak through their bases, get new information by sneaking and listening too enemies conversation. Wait for enemies, take them out one by one without being detected hiding the dead bodies for guards and this is just a tiny piece of what you can do.

It's 1st person shooter, with a great story I will try to explain without any spoilers. In the beginning you are in an accident and you are the chief of security for a large corporation so they decide to save you at all cost so you can live. The story plays out on emotions and it does so brilliantly, it plays out in the future and its a war coming and this war will be thought in our land, in our homes. Ill keep it simple. The story is a very strong asset to the original l Deus ex game because its so closely tight to the human condition it pulls you right in and you feel emotionally attached. It may though feel like just another normal FPS in the first 30 minutes. But soon it will let you get in in this open world and reveal this conspiracy.

The controls are perfect and the first person shooter experience can definetly compete with games like Call of Dutys, What I love is that every thing you get to do in this game you can do in like 15 different ways, if your character is good in stealth he can use stealth to get in to the room and finish the objective or he might use security
Worth buying and renting, 9 of 10 toasts

Was not expecting much from this game could be why I enjoyed it more. The game play is pretty smooth and the AI is challenging, enemies for instance will pin you from both directions if possible to discover your location making creative adaptation on the fly necessary and challenging. Also the hacking minigame you play to open doors is pretty gratifying in it's own rite. A downside to this game though I felt was that the bosses were pretty linear in their strengths; making the boss battles feel rather repetitive. Other than that this game is an immersive covert-action game with decent voice acting especially if you like Steven Segal. I'd buy this game maybe after the price goes down but wouldn't shame myself if I had paid retail value.

I am a huge fan of the original Deus Ex and I am glad to say that this game is not only a worthy sequel to the original, but it surpasses it. Everything about this game from the art style, level design, AI, story, and gameplay is all top notch. To me, this is perfect 10, but to anyone who isn't a raging Deus Ex fanboy like myself, the game is at least a good 8 or 9.

In this game you play as Adam Jensen, a head of security at Sarif Industries. Your girlfriend is killed and you are beaten up and left for dead and are forced to get heavily augmented to save your life. Then you vow revenge and go after the people responsible. The story is full of twists and turns and is very immersive. But, I won't spoil anything here.

One of the high points of the Deus Ex series is that you can solve missions any way you see fit. For nearly every mission in the game there are multiple ways of beating it. And there are many augs that allow you to do just that.

From Hacking and Stealth Enhancements. The ability to see or punch through walls. They even have augs where you can jump and run faster or float down like a angel when falling from any height and stun anyone below or crouching down and firing off a hail of bullets that can clear any room.

Also, the game is incredibly immersive and well thought out. So much so that if you see an e-mail on someones computer, you can track down the person who sent it and it will be on their computer as sent mail. And even things minor NPCs or e-mails mention can usually be tracked down.

As for the pros/cons:

Pros:

Amazing Art Style
Great Level Design
Good AI
Incredibly immersive world
Freedom to solve every mission in a variety of ways
Radios that play classic Deus Ex music
Game plays very smoothly on consoles

Cons:

Ran into a few very rare glitches(Enemies running into walls and one side quest got glitched)

If you are a fan of the original Deus Ex or just love a good rpg/shooter, you would be a fool not to give this a shot.

This game was great.

A FPS of Mass Effect really. So if that's your thing, check this out.

There's plenty here that other stealth games (Metal Gear, Hitman) have done better. In fact, most of the game had me wishing this was Hitman and anxious for the new game because there were certain things I wanted to do that I couldn't. Which is weird for a game that is supposed to be very heavy on unique experiences.

The game wants you to be a stealthy espionage hitman guy, but has a very FPS-based set up that doesn't linger itself well for the freedom desired and offered in games like Metal Gear and Hitman.

Maybe it's a conflict of 3rd vs. 1st person. It comes very close to hitting the mark. I thought the graphics were great and because of the conflict I had with the gameplay, I really did opt for more of a FPS game than a stealth game approach and made it through the game no problem. The story is alright.

Everything is black and gold. Which is kinda weird.

Could have used a more cinematic experience.

First FPS in forever that last more than an afternoon and gives some reason to replay. Definitely one of the better games released this year and an excellent alternative to most FPS games. GOOD GAME.

Human Revolution is about vengeance. Adam Jensen ends up getting killed, and he is recreated by prosthetics. He awakens only to get back into his job and also to find the guy who killed him. This game is cool; great graphics, good gameplay, good deal of violence, and a lot of cinematics. There's a lot of violence, but with all of the cutscenes in it the violence kind of spreads out. i like this game, and it is really fun. At least rent this game.

This game is probably the best game I've played this year. I'd rate it higher if possible. 11 / 10!
==Pros==
(liked UI)
(Graphics Great)
(Non-Linear)
(Kept my attention)
(Replayability)
==Cons==
(Load Times)
Not much to complain about, great game overall. Great Rent, Good Buy.

This game was a pleasant surprise. I absolutely loved the apocalyptic robotic AI story, the conversation dynamic along with the ability to make a game to rival splinter cell in the sneak department. Of course when sneaking becomes boring or too time consuming there are a variety of weapons ready to lay waste to humans, humanoids and robots alike.

One of the best stories Ive played in a few years, original and fun. Has its problems and quarks but overall it was terrific a must play!

I have to agree with the other guy this is one of the best games i have played this year!! it really draws you in and makes you wanna keep playing it, and man its very real the AI is great and just seems to be a well rounded game. maybe not for everyone but would give it a chance about 30min of game play and you will either like it or not. I really like it!!!!!

I can't figure out what everyone loves about this game. I'm not big on graphics but the graphics here look weak, even to me. I love a good story but the dialogue seemed to go on and on and on and the story was way overplayed. The NPCs all seem to have some kind of neurological disease that makes them flail their arms about like a drunk octopus.

Then we get to the hero, the new 6 million dollar man for want of a better term, who can't take more than two shots without dying. The guy who punches out one bad guy and lays on the floor gasping for breath like a 65 year old coal miner.

I could go on and on but when I spent an hour trying to figure out how to get into the police station, I finally gave it up as a bad bet.

You would think a game where you play a bionically enhanced agent would be fun, but everything about this game is designed to be frustrating. Using your strength is so energy-draining that you can only take out 2 or 3 guys before you become weak and helpless. Stealth is difficult because if anyone sees you at all, you are immediately ganged up on and die. However, full-on assault is even worse - you will not last long. Even moving around the city is difficult, with passages that are shown as open on the map but are blocked with insurmountable fences or locked gates. You need to constantly hack door locks and security alarms, but the hacking mini-game is needlessly complex and incomprehensible - I never knew exactly what was going on, even when I was successful. Upgrades are essential, but I played this game for hours without earning a single upgrade point. After a couple of days of frustration and numerous deaths I switched to "easy" mode, but it didn't help the game's major flaws much. I realized I wasn't having any fun playing this game and sent it back.

This is by far the slowest FPS I've ever played. It seems much more like a RPG where you shoot people once in awhile. The story seemed pretty cool, which is why I didn't give it a 1, but the game moved so slowly that it made the story too drawn out. The hacking mini games were also annoying and repetitive. When you were actually in combat, the controls were awkward and not responsive.

Great story.
Great play style variety.
Great weapons.
Has replay-ability value.
Characters are well developed.

Even if you do not like this genre, there is no reason not to try this game out.

Deus Ex was the game that really brought me into the PC gaming world. It changed how I viewed gaming altogether. The follow-up, Deus Ex Invisible Wars was disappointing, but Human Revolution recaptured much of the first game. This game slowly draws you in. I wasn't sure when I first started playing it, but then I couldn't put it down.

One reviewer said this game was about vengeance, he could not be further from the truth. This game is much much deeper. Deus Ex has always been about real possibilities. What if we began to augment humans in the way described in this game? There is a deeper story here that makes it very interesting. The ending was a little disappointing, reminded me of the first game. Although this time you get four choices.

Two complaints. (1) the crouch button on the L3. It got in the way in some battles. (2) I wish while we were reading all those ebooks, we would have heard something about the first game. Maybe talk about what happened to those guys. I hate "falling in love" with a character only to never see of hear of them again in subsequent games.

I like the game, but i hate the game, some of it's to easy some way beyond hard,not enough upgrades,have to cheat to get through. I'm about to send it back ,but to let it beat me ... can't do it.. like it ,hate it

Black and gold--that was their art direction, and they stuck with it. It's too bad they weren't clear about anything else. It has a thick cyber punk vibe. You don't get the same feeling from anything else in 2011.

But I never liked the shooting. Or combat in general. The skill tree didn't make sense to me until I'd already wasted my points. I wanted to be an assault rifle expert with hacking skills, so I wasted my points. Meanwhile finding key codes and passwords was never fun and the story was forgettable. Nothing stuck except how annoying the combat was.

You should play it, but with Skyim, Rage, and even Mortal Kombat, there's no reason to put up with this game right now. If you like having an encyclopedic knowledge of new games, though, definitely give it a rental. Otherwise, don't bother until you've got nothing else to play. Not sure when that'll be...

This game looked great but completely unplayable due to half-life like inducing nausea. Steer clear if HL made you sick
