JJB, you're a beautiful man! Will we be able to have homosexual relations with your character during the game? Thanks man, looking forward to the game!

@rocknrollfanatic96 The cake is a lie.

[rocknrollfanatic96]

@supertrixxx You're canceling your pre order...over a bad joke?

I've heard some dumb reasons for canceling pre orders. But that just took the cake.

Copy of Invisible War in the background. Throw it out the window!

@commandershepard13 I can see similarities in the stealth elements and somewhat in the art style.

I say the stealth looks similar for two reasons. 1) It's line of sight and sound based, exactly like MGS. MGS never really had any focus on light/shadow play like Splinter Cell did, I think this game is going to be the same way. And 2) The Predator-esque stealth suit thingy lol. I know that's not something specific to MGS, but when I see things like that I always think of the cyborg ninja.

imagine if we can find gunther herman!! as a teenager or somenthing... i think he had 50 years on 2052.... soo....in 2027 he would have 25 years, maybe hes starting out or somenthing and he still doesnt have any augs, and hes unkillable(for obvious reasons) that would be awesome, a german 25 years old agent we happen to found in a alley asking questions or somenthing... wow... pure especulation ftw

@valleyshrew why this is a good thing? i mean, you only will play the game because of this? im going to play the game expecting at least 10% of what the original had, wich means i expect this game to get segund place on GOTY( skyrim first forever)

I was wondering whether Adam Jensen is inspired from MGS's Snake.

[commandershepard13]

I don't understand all the comparison's to Metal gear Solid. i see no similarity's. MGS has a strange story that makes no sense yet is strangely awesome at the same time, combined with killer stealth/ stealth-action gameplay. Deus Ex would be more like MGS gameplay fused with Mass Effect conversation and communication abilities and a universe as in depth as Halo all wrapped up in an amazing story rivaling those of most award winning novelists. At least that's what DX1 felt like.
