Finally some sneaky gameplay .. I thought they got rid of it completely for the console morons, glad to see it's still in there. Not a fan of the artwork though, looks too brown/orange'y ..

Haven't seen much Deus Ex, this should be interesting.
 
Edit: I hope those menus are smooth and easy, it looks like there's a ton of them. Game looks really good otherwise, and even if those graphics aren't as shiny as I'd expected, they look just shiny enough to fit with Deus Ex.

The original is one of my favorite games and was really disappointed by Invisible War.  I'm feeling really good about this though.

I really love the black and gold style.  There's hints of Blade Runner, but it's very unique.
I'm glad to see the gameplay so far is holding up too.  Seems to be the Deus Ex sequel we've been waiting for.

My god, the voice acting in this sounds about as bad as it was in the first Deus Ex. Game does look fun though.

A game where detective vision actually makes sense.
 
A Deus Ex game where combat isn't mediocre.
 
A return to the air ducts.
 
2/3 ain't bad.

I'm amused by a quick look being around twenty five minutes an "extended look" being two. This game is starting to look like what ShadowRun should have been. And there's nothin' wrong with that.

So apparently everyone that owns a console is a moron? I have a gaming PC and all current consoles. Am I a moron even though I enjoy my PC gaming?

I'm missing the cyberpunky demoscene style electronic music from the first game - all this generic movie soundtrack stuff is getting pretty boring - even more so than the reality is brown stuff, and the inventory totally looks like the seemingly universally hated iris UI from Deus Ex 2. I never had a problem with it in 2, but I'm not sure that the people who hated it would like this either, except for that this hopefully won't limit the size of the levels because of the Xbox memory limitations, like Deus Ex 2 did.
 
I'm still totally going to buy this, because there could never be too many cyberpunk stealth games.

They've showed the stealth gameplay in previous trailers and talked about it extensively in interviews.
