Orogun01 Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Holy crap that concept art looks amazing. Also, I'm slow but does that weird indent on Jensen's forehead have the Sarif industries logo in it? Poor guy is walking product placement. Yeah, it represents brain implants. Actually he got shot in the head, that's the bullet hole. It comes with the advertising I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

It didn't really kick in till the 1100's or so, when it shifted more to Deus for church latin rather then the original "Classic Latin". Most english dictionaries have it described as "de-us" or "dee-us" for pronunciation. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Gorgon Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IPA_for_Latin Yes, but given that no one actually speaks Latin in the real world, we use English phonemes, and get 'eI' for eː Yes, this is a waste of time, but now I can't stop.

Raithe Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Whats kind of amusing is that the first ps3 review of the game has given it an 8/10.. but the waiting fans are slating the reviewer for describing the game as "not as direct as Call of Duty, but not as expansive and open as Fallout. Instead it's somewhere in the middle"... The DE forums are awash with people turning phrases like "my favourite colour is somewhere between Black and White." "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Tale Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 The DE forums are awash with people turning phrases like "my favourite colour is somewhere between Black and White." I like that. It's got a ring to it. Not having read the aforementioned review, the idea behind the fan commentary is sound. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Malcador Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 (edited) All that optimism and hope on the official forum is too much to bear, heh. I should have tried that leak when it came out, ah well. Apparently from reviews, the boss fights suck, but that's about all there is bad to it. Edited August 1, 2011 by Malcador Why has elegance found so little following?

Raithe Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 All that optimism and hope on the official forum is too much to bear, heh. I should have tried that leak when it came out, ah well. Pretty much everyone I've heard of who played the leak turned even more enthusiastic fan-boyish. And a couple of people did the "i wasn't planning on worrying too much on when I got this game..but now I've pre-ordered it." So I'd say that sort of response from an unfinished 10 hour journalist demo is a good reason for people to stay optimistic. PC Gamer UK has apparently given it a 94% - Saying that pretty much the key reason it didn't get the 95% the original DE got was because while DEHR has the atmosphere it isn't actually as revolutionary. At 94% ? making it among the highest-scoring games in PC Gamer?s history. The original, released back in 2000, earned itself a 95% rating, and the mag has repeatedly referred to Ion Storm?s classic as the best game ever.It's absolutely the Deus Ex of our age, a genuinely worthy prequel, and a game that puts almost everything else in the genre to shame. Official Playstation Magazine OPM's 8/10 is a little more critical of the PS3 version than PCG's whopping 94% verdict. Critic Leon Hurley writes that the game is a "curious hybrid" of stealth, action, RPG and story - but manages to pull it off with aplomb... for the most part. "It's not as direct as a sci-fi COD, nor as expansive or open as Fallout," he writes. "Instead it's somewhere in the middle." OPM concludes that the game does the Deus Ex series "proud" - "providing an absorbing world to investigate and a satisfying freedom to play by your own rules". Slight gripes come when discussing background characters "cycling routines", frustrating boss fights and long loading screens that "break the mood". Overall, though, the PS3 Deus Ex: Human Revolution review gives the two thumbs up. The game's described as having a plot that's "basically James Bond of the future" in a world with "lush art direction". Hurley writes: "It doesn't reach Killzone 3 levels of splendour, but it's impossible not to be wowed by the neon-drenched presence of Hangsha in China." Official Xbox Magazine has given it a 10/10 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Well, it'd have to be outright terrible for fanboys to not become more so, no ? Heh. Amusing how revolutionary is worth 1% though.
