I got DX when it came out but have not been able to play untell last night. The Game is deep with character devealopment , weapon upgrades and skills.
The controls take abit to get the hange of, and for those that like auto aim your out of luck you are going to have to work for your kills. You are able to customize your controls, and you use every buton even the joysticks.
As fare as the graphics; very will done. They are not land mark, but I dont have any complaints. The voice acting can be monotone but seeing that your character is just about a cyborg you can understand it.
Game play is smooth, but the are some loading time issues, why cant all games follow soul reaver loading times. You are able to make your own descistions, as in talking with other IA and how you hanld the missions your on.
The IA is smart. You cant just line up every one and start taking them out. As in MGS2 they react to sound and seek you out, and god they are a good shoot.
In all this was game of the year for the PC, and some even say that it was the best PC game of all time. I tryed to play it on my peace of @#*# PC but it couldn\'t handle it. So I was excited to hear that it was comeing out on the PS2. So fare it hasn\'t let me down.

Right well unfortunatly it got a bad score from IGN, 6.3.
Here are some quotes.
In Deus Ex, you can choose to play an entirely different kind of game the second time through, just by buying a different set of skills.
What is also neat about the game is that it rewards trying different solutions to problems. Taking an alternate route often leads to an alternate destination, and even when you must be railroaded towards a particular place, Deus Ex makes up for it by offering two or three ways to get there. Furthermore, such is only done in service to a major plot point, which makes the breadth and depth of the game\'s narrative all the more surprising.
The PS2 version actually spruces things up a bit in the cinematic department, with better character animation for some of the realtime cutscenes and several nice pre-rendered cinemas. The latter look a little primitive by console standards, but they whip the PC version\'s hollow (even though I can\'t figure out why the line "Let it spill over in the schools and churches" was cut from the PS2 intro movie). But then it comes time to play the game, rather than just look at it, and there the trouble begins.
The real problems, meanwhile, are to be encountered when dealing with the simple business of aiming.
Others are new to the PS2 version, particularly longer and more frequent load times (since the PS2\'s memory can\'t hold as much of the levels at once). Saving, at least, is unusually easy -- you can save anywhere, and although a card holds only 10 saves, that\'s a huge improvement on the 20-meg save files of the PC version. Aiming, however, is the big one.
In comparison to the PS2 market as a whole, though, this baby doesn\'t look so hot. It runs at a decent framerate, which is more than folks with TNT2s got back when it was first released, but the background architecture and character models are still very rough around the edges, and while the animation is better in gameplay, the realtime cinematics move very stiffly in comparison to any number of console games.

this game uses the unreal engine, avoid unreal engine games on ps2 like the plague! Ugly, blury and choppy frame rate are common
but the Pc version of this game was for pc wat mgs was for psx, I loved it till the end. :)
