Human Revolution is the third game in the Deus Ex series, a prequel where players take control of augmented security officer Adam Jensen, and investigate attacks against Sarif Industries, a leader in augmentation technology.
They still haven't reviewed Deus Ex, and they are my favorite website. All my friends are bragging about their favorite gaming websites already having reviewed this game, but Jeff is not passionate enough about games anymore, Ryan is not fast enough to finish the game , Brad is not good enough to beat the game and Vinny is probably playing through Deus ex 1 & 2 right now.
My prediction: Jeff 3 stars - Games are just not great anymore
Dunno if this is serious or not. Giantbomb is different to other sites in that they are pretty small and won't always have time to have a review ready for the launch of the game.
If you choose your favorite gaming websites based on how fast they post reviews so you can boast about it in front of your friends then leave this place and go to IGN.
After reading all these posts like the OP's and others from yesterday I'm fucking glad I don't write video game reviews for a living. Talk about working for ungrateful brats 24/7.

My friends are still bragging about their Bastion reviews. : /
Jeff said on his Twitter that he was holding off a day to check out the PC version, which is something a lot of other sites haven't taken the time to do.
I join my colleagues here and ask to you OP .... WTF??? You don't need that kind of friends , and if you need bragging points look at the earliest youtube video and say you like it.... good to know yours and your friends priorities -_-
Last video review was LA Noire. Cannot believe that even de Duke of N himself did not merit a cheeky video review... Deus Ex doesn't have a chance, the next review in video format will probably be Rage, if even that. I would bet on MW3 though.
Then again, they are kinda "reviewing" everything in the bombcast, but still. I want the giant Bahm to do a professional video review like fat/skinny Kevin Van Ord, eh?
ARGHHH! I can already hear it screeching in my ears. Tomorrow Jeff will say something like:
"I don't think this is such a great game. It introduces mechanics that become repetitive halfway through the story (NB: unlike every other videogame EVER!). I played for several hours then got to a point when I was asked to hack or something and I said: "I don't wanna play Deus Ex anymore" "

Er, was that last bit left out of the quotation, intentionally?
Just need to say: LOL. You've never seen Brad give it his all, have you? He's probably the most skilled staffer.
Jeff seems to own him whenever they go head to head. Even Norm beats him at starcraft ;-) This post is clear sarcasm though.
To be fair, it's usually a game that Jeff has had time with and Brad hasn't. And Norm's got skills too, no doubt about it. With all that coffee he pounds, his APM is likely through the roof. :P
LOL so true man so true. it becomes more clear every time listening to the bombcast that jeff is not as passionate about games as he once was. i'm still laughing here, funny post.
Jeff has said on his Twitter that they will talk a lot about the game in the Bombcast and that both a review and a Quick Look will go up today. And as someone earlier pointed out are they testing both console and PC versions.
Video reviews are redundant. Read if you want a review ... quick looks however are excellent. No quick cuts, just commentary and the game.
And if it turns out Jeff doesn't like the game, well so what? He doesn't like a bunch of games I do, but I trust him. Honestly dude, chill.
And look I know Giant Bomb can be embarrassing at times ... I remember once it showed up at my school, like totally in this silk robe and you could see almost everything, and it started yelling "Sweetheart you forgot you lunch!!", and my friends were all like "Giant Bomb? What are you? Some kind of gay?", and I was all like "Giant Bomb, please, don't do this too me, not in front of my friends", but it was already drunk and totally ruined my life!! JUNIOR HIGH SUCKS!
All my reviews bring the boys to the yard, and their like, it's better then yours. Damn right it's better then yours, I could teach you but I'd have to charge.
As has been linked in this thread, Jeff has stated that the review will be coming tomorrow, along with a live quick look. I think we can wait a few hours until then, especially given that this thread is going way off its rails.
