The Deus Ex: Human Revolution Website outlines the preorder bonuses available to those who purchase Deus Ex: Human Revolution before the release of the action/RPG sequel early next year (currently listed as March 8, 2011 by various retailers). The bonus is one of two tactical packs (depending on the merchant), which offer exclusive weapons, a bonus mission, and in-game currency. Eidos also announces plans for an "Augmented Edition" of the game to sell at a $10.00 premium over the vanilla version. The Augmented Edition will include a 40-page art book, a DVD on the making of the game and more, premium packaging, and a "motion graphic novel."

I've met and barely worked with Warren when I was at Eidos 99-2000. He was a great guy, we hit it off and talked for about 2.5-3 hours, nearly agreeing on everything (Except Tresspasser which I thought had potential, he hated all of it). He then asked me to come to Austin to work on this game Deus Ex, I declined as I was living in SF and working on Thief around then (At looking Glass, when I was there for 2 weeks, they showed me this little game called System Shock 2, hahaa, loved it!)
Anyways, after my long winded intro, Warren has NEVER taken full credit for Deus Ex. He is extremely modest and humble and would often talk about his Team and why they worked so well, took risks etc. etc.
Those days are gone people. So many risky development studio's have gone out of business and now it's all about cheap, boring, simple, repetitive games for the dumbest generation of all time: The ME generation (anyone under 30 is automatically included).
DE Human Rev will probably be visually stunning, but it has do be fucking dumb enough to cater to as many people as possible. Little girls, black kids, white kids, asian kids, mommy and daddy's no violence and sex approval. Basically much like the movie industry.
No one makes games to a particular group these days, say 30-40, in America. The last game I played that DID do this was Stalker, specifically aimed at adults and being totally unappologetic about it.
Look to Europe for your best games, America is dead gaming and movie wise. |
