Deus Ex: Live Action Trailer - Purity


In this live action video for the upcoming 360, PC, & PS3 game, Dues Ex: Human Revolution, an unknown underground group (Purity First?) warns us about the dangers of human augmentation, and Sarif Industries. This video also vividly paints the future world of Deus Ex, where biomechanical augmentations are as common as plastic surgery is today, and some of the struggles it's citizens face.



My first experience with the franchise was with Dues Ex: Invisible War, the second game in the series, on the XBOX console, and while most fans of the original game seemingly hated it, I loved it. I found it's sci-fi setting, and the ability to change your characters strengths compelling. While those that hated it, called it dumbed down, I'm glad it didn't get bogged down to a racing sim type of experience where you would have to focus on a hundred different variables. From what I've seen of this third game, a prequel, it should be quite fun. Be sure to check out it's official site.
