yay? EDIT: Extreme range sniper rifle and double barreled shotgun? If the shotgun is really powerful, like for example the Doom 2 shotgun, then that is pretty alright. Problem is that they don't tell anything about the weapons and how they fit with the rest of the game :S

Deus Ex is my favorite game of all time, and these pre-order bonuses fail to entice me.

Now, if the pre-order bonuses were versions of the guns from the first game, that might be worth a look but a double barrel shotgun seems more at home in a doom 2 or redneck rampage than in a futuristic dystopia

In-game money? That just seems lazy.

@crusader8463: They're not cutting stuff out - these days they design and make levels, weapons, quests, etc. specifically for pre-order incentives and post release DLC. So the content isn't being cut out - its entire inception was purely to serve as their pre-order exclusive... Which is still bullshit.

Pay for advantages that ruin the difficulty of the game early on? 
No thanks.

@ComradeKhan:  It's content that we used to get in the game, but that they are now cutting out from the game and instead locking it behind pre-order shit.

@crusader8463: Yeah i know, i agree with you. I'm just saying that now that pre-order bonuses are the norm they most likely made some extra weapons just for pre-order.

@ComradeKhan:  That's my point. They are not finished with the game then sitting down and saying "Ok guys. Let's make some pre-order DLC!" They are making their game then sitting down and saying "Ok guys, what can we cut from the game to use as pre-order DLC that won't completly fuck up the balancing?"

Man, I really hope this will be at least half as good as the first one.

How "extreme" is "extreme range"? That video made it look like less than half the length of a football field. The regular sniper rifle from the first was longer range than that.

i hate when double barrel shotguns only shoot both barrels and effectively only have one shot like this and in fallout
