25-30 times? I can't even remember how many times I've played through Deus Ex, and I'm still finding new things. If it was just nostalgia and bias, I would've gotten bored out of my mind after the 10th playthrough.

I doubt anyone has truly found all the little secrets hidden in that awesome game.

That is superb writing! I guess, it still ends up being a matter of preference, because it would be unfair to compare the two of these great moments in gaming history.

Did you know that there were plenty of medbots in the first level of Deus Ex? :D

The ones inside the container? ;) Or are there more?

And yes, Arcanum was one hell of a game.

Yeah, they were inside a "container". There were 2-3 containers if I recall correctly. I asked it because not that it was something hard to find but it was something missed too easily. I found it out way later (about 5-6 years after I first played it :ashamed: ), and a lot of my friends were very surprised when they first saw it.

Just finished Human Revolution. Truly, a masterpiece.

Only thing that bothered me at all was that story was somewhat similar to first Deus Ex. Different enough though. Some have given critique of the boss battles, but I think only the first one was bad.

Same here. A few years later when I was sneaking past that spot, I noticed the "text" and looked at it, saw the "box reticle" that appeared, and went "WTF!?"

Someone on the Human Revolution team has been watching way too much "Tron: The Shitty Remake." God awful music... :(
