Deus Ex 3 TeaserPosted by: Deschain |

Right now 2010 seems to be shaping up to be one major money drain for gamers. The variety of games seem to have something for everyone. For me, Heavy Rain had some flaws but largely lived up to my expectations. Splinter Cell Conviction is looking like Sam Fisher meets Max Payne which, if so, will be awesome. Speaking of Max Payne, Remedy looks prepared to surpass that series with Alan Wake. Valve has announced Portal 2 for release this year. Halo Reach looks to be at least a solid and potentially outstanding entry in the Halo franchise. Crysis 2 should be a solid follow on to that series. There is even some talk of Gears of War 3 and I'm still hoping for Half-Life 2:Episode 3 news at E3.
Then there are some lesser publicized titles on the horizon - Alpha Protocol, The Secret World, and Singularity. All are games I want to play and some could be major time investments.
But maybe, just maybe, the biggest launch for me this year could be Deus Ex: Human Revolution (aka Deus Ex 3). Deus Ex still stands as my favorite game of all time. An action (or stealth) RPG (shooter) where your choices were reflected in the way NPCs treated you and whether or not some of them were around later in the game. Deus Ex: Invisible War (aka Deus Ex 2) was a good game that I enjoyed but there were flaws. It was simplified from Deus Ex and it attempted to incorporate all the endings from the original game. So I'm nervous about Deus Ex: Human Revolution and the following is just a teaser. But I'm starting to get excited (the Icarus imagery doesn't hurt) and this game is the one I most want to learn more about when E3 comes around.
