Deus Ex - Invisible War Explored

Thanks to GameSpot for their hands-on impressions of Deus Ex: Invisible War, the long-awaited PC/Xbox FPS from Warren Spector and cohorts at Ion Storm Austin. As well as confirming the game will ship in time for Xmas, the article illuminates: "Invisible War will give you more freedom of choice than the original Deus Ex", claiming that, similarly to the prequel, even non-violent conduct will work: "...one tester has made it about two-thirds of the way through the game without having acquired so much as a pistol." Boomtown also has a new preview of this "pivotal title" for Eidos.

Whew!

Here I was worried it was going to be " Deus Ex - Invisible Title".

The Xbox version is going to be further optimized as development is finished.

Grrr that is the one draw back IMHO to PC games. For PC's you gotta make the game "generic" so that it will work with all systems. Wheras you know the hardware configuration of a console, so you can optimize the heck out of it.

Sigh, if only standards were rules, in the PC world, rather than a buzz word.

Actually you know your right, and deep down I felt the same all along, I guess it was just a bit of bitter resentment left over from this morning when my PC wouldn't boot into Windows for some God for seen reason, and when it did Morrowind ran like sludge.

Being able to upgrade and change components is truly the power of a PC over a console. However there are great arguments for either side PC/Console (I personally prefer PC, but thats me) which I won't get into as this isn't the place. In the end, it really gets down to what you prefer.

If I still had moderator points left, I'd mod my original post down to "Whiny bitch" :)
