"Ask yourself, if you will; what is a game?
I suppose you could see the question from any number of angles, any number of interpretations. You could view it mechanically – a typical game involves an actor, maybe several, multiple mechanics, parameters. You could take each individual aspect of a game and put a magnifying glass to it. Or you could take it at its most literal definition; something to be played."
First world gamer problems. How do you balance an MMO, a creative indie title, an engrossing FPS/RPG, and a full-time job?
Just a day in the life of an adult gamer, something we can all relate to.
"2011 has been a very well-paced year for gamers. We started out with a couple of hits in January and ended with a major release less than a week before Christmas. My favorites this year include horror, comedy, epic RPG’s, downloadable arcade games, and even a DLC pack from a 2010 game that was so good it deserves just as much honor as the full games. Developers are making great games at a faster rate than anyone can play them all, but here are ten that I thoroughly enjoyed."
"As the retail season enters it’s final cataclysmic hours before Christmas some consumers are amassing at retail establishments, while their smarter counterparts are now reading the internet looking for downloadable games that can be gifted at the last moment.

Below, the DoEE has compiled the best sales of the Christmas rush for..."

"Looking back on everything that came out this year, there’s a lot of stuff I missed; and a lot more stuff that I forgot even came out (Dead Space 2 was this year?!). This was a really good year for gaming, and now I have a lot of games that I’ll have to talk about on The Catch-Up. Like…"
"2011 has been a busy year for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 gamers alike. With a great amount of exclusives being released for the PlayStation 3, narrowing the list down to a top five is quite difficult. Add in some amazing multiplatform games also released this year, and the task is almost impossible. While I had the opportunity to play a lot of great games in 2011, the top five games I feel I must give a nod to are Dead Space 2, Uncharted 3, Battlefield 3, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Kill..."
"For many of us the VGAs were a bit underwhelming.
We had new announcements in the form of new ‘post-apocaliptic’ zombie survival type games (sigh), and new footage of some upcoming games that look either very promising (Bioshock Infinite, Hitman Absolution) or incredibly silly (Metal Gear Rising: Revengance, or as I call it: Devil May Rise: Cryvengance).
Then we had the idiocy that made our gaming industry look even more puerile with ‘tea bagging’ those whose speech went a little long and..."

"Conspiracy theories are often an exaggeration of the human mind. Adding up one fiction to another, they turn into the plan of a mastermind. However, every now and then, a theory that someone suggests turn out to be true. Human nature, sadly, is based on personal profit, jealousy, deceiving, and domination. Therefore, wherever there is profit, wherever there is domination, there is a certain chance of finding some level of conspiracy."

"It’s been eight years – eight long, tiring years for some – since we’ve seen the last true Deus Ex game, Invisible War on the original Xbox. Since that time, a lot of first-person shooters have changed the landscape of the genre, including Bioshock. Does that mean Eidos’ series, now in the hands of Square Enix, has bitten the dust? Hardly. This week marks the release of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, a game that dares to be even more revolutionary than the preceding effort. But can it live up to ..."

Are there any other games that could be considered espionage RPGs?

After being contracted out to Human Head Studios, the game finally released in 2006 to very good reviews, praising the game’s unique, gravity-altering mechanics, pretty visuals, and the interesting internal struggle of the main character – a Native American former-soldier living on a reservation (think Johnny Fireclo..."

"One of the more high profile developers we got to interview at PAX East 2011 was Jean-Francois Dugas, Game Director on Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Eidos Montreal hopes the upcoming sequel will establish the franchise as a dominant force in gaming, but it’s been a long journey for Dugas and his team in their attempt to accomplish that. Throughout the interview we talk about the challenges of reviving an older franchise, their unique relationship with their Japanese publisher, Warren Spector’s f..."
"She's somehow eluded them for this long, the odds of locating her are slim to none or so the smoking man seems to think. The others on the conference call seem just as equally discouraged except for one, who speaks that their chance of finding her may actually be feasible in the very near future. No names, disguised voices, the only person on the call are the smoking man. The conspiracy begins here. 10 years ago, we were introduced to the oft-silent terrorist/hero of Deus Ex, JC Denton. What ..."
"Did you ever look at an evolutionary tree of life? The kinds of diagrams they show in biology class that show when different species diverged from each other and the paths they took. If you’ve ever seen one, you know that life can split off in amazingly divergent directions. Hippos and whales sharing a relatively recent common ancestor for example. Or a small group of African primates splitting into three directions giving the planet intelligent humans, barbarous apes, and amorous bonobos. Ga..."

"Critical Gamer writes: Every time the interweb was fed new details about the new Deus Ex, I got a little bit more worried about it. Was it being ‘dumbed down’ for more mass appeal? After watching a live on – stage demo those fears are largely gone – but they’ve been replaced by new ones. This was one of the few games to be treated to a developer session that didn’t have a playable demo on the show floor, and perhaps you’ll come to understand why."
"This new trailer might be on to something…Deus Ex sounds pretty damn good in Japanese. ’ Angry Japanese’ has a certain flair about it. Makes it seem more Bad Ass."

"A decade has passed and Deus Ex still receives no shortage of praise. Some people, including myself, consider it gaming royalty. It transformed my perception of video gaming’s capabilities. I became more than my avatar’s puppeteer. My fond memories were not the result of dramatic events or plot twists laid out by the developers, but rather, my manipulations of the world and the ability to shape my own path."
After seeing the gameplay presentation of Deus Ex 3, all hopes have not only been raised, they have skyrocketed. Here are 3 reasons that Deus Ex 3 was by far E3 2010's best game.

With a plethora of great First Person Shooter titles released in the last 6-7 months and many more to come later in the year, All Age Gaming's Ian Crane takes a look Eidos/Square Enix's upcoming title Deus Ex: Human Revolution. With more details to be revealed at E3, Ian covers what we know so far for the game.
"Last night's Gave Developers Conference awards show included a suprised ending with the debut of Deus Ex 3: Human Revolution teaser trailer. The game is being developed by industry luminary Warren Spector for Eidos with Square Enix handling the CG cutscenes and distribution."
"When quizzed on the possibility of more support for social networks and iPhone releases, Livingstone simply replied with a reinforcement of Eidos’ commitment to “exploring all platforms”, and creating “platform specific experiences”. He then denied a seemingly left field question about Rocksteady acquiring the Hitman licence, stating that it was “absolutely not true”, and “pure speculation”. Given that IO Interactive retains the development rights to the franchise, Electronic Theatre would be..."
"In a question and answer session with the press earlier this morning, Ian Livingstone discussed the current state of the videogames industry, and the position of Eidos within. Talking about the future of the UK publisher, many interesting titles were bought into the discussion, not least that of Deus Ex 3."
"Game studios have it hard at the moment.

Here’s a look at some of the most loved studios that went bust this decade after the jump.
Ion Storm
Who doesn’t know Ion Storm? They are developers of what’s ..."
Gamasutra has gotten their hands on some pretty juicy information about Deus Ex Co-creator Warren Spector: Apparently, from the recent concept art and information they have viewed, there is a strong rumor going around that he is working on a Micky Mouse game.
There is tons of evidence to back this up, so it's probably only a matter of time before this becomes official.
"Eidos Montreal says it's more than aware of fan reaction to controversial second game, Invisible War, and promises mistakes, such as limiting ammo types to just one, won't be repeated.
This said, they are doing their utmost to please newcomers as well as existing fans. Perhaps controversially this time around combat won't be influenced by stats, but will rely purely on your personal marksmanship skills. Instead stats will influence "a vast array of fully upgradeable and customisable weapon..."
"As was rumored, Deus Ex 3 will be a prequel, set in 2027 (25 years before the first game). The main character is Adam Jensen, a private security officer at a biomechanical augmentation lab. Biomechanical augmentations were the precursor to the nanotechnology the player characters in the first two Deus Ex possessed."
Deus Ex means god made machine and so far the series has lived up to it's ambitious name for the most part but can it do it a third time? Well take a look for yourself at the trailer (linked in the article) as well as screenshots and a analysis. Apart from that and info on the team developing it it's slim pickings though. So don't expect it until 2009. No info on what platforms its coming too either
