Shouldn’t be too hard, no? You could render it in Glide, DirectX or even just plain old software.

A lot of the gameplay is dependent on the KBM interface, too - proper KBM, not “we just let you map console buttons to a keyboard”. 

What, so only four quickslots, mouse acceleration and smoothing, takedowns, dialogue wheels, and a tabbed inventory system? No thanks.

Do they remember Squalnomie?

The genius of Deus Ex isn’t that it’s what we think of as a branching narrative - not it today’s sense of the word.

That’s nothing; I’ve had half-feral ADSes that would beat the shit out of him, then take a nap.

I just want to say how perfect the title image for this article is. Nailed everything aesthetically for the time.

Who woulda thunk a trio of Novocastrian schoolkids would take over the world?

Man, I wondered what happened to this bloke. Poor bastard’s been through a lot, and now he’s working for Discovery Channel, in the US, right now. That’s awful.
