Is it still worth playing?

Eidos Montréal's 2011 single player action role playing game for Windows, the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360, a prequel to the original Deus Ex set in 2027, about 25 years earlier. You play Adam Jensen, a security officer at Sarif Industries, a maker of controversial augmentations, who is heavily augmented after an attack on the company and investigates the shadowy group behind it. It blends first person shooting, stealth and role playing. Augmentations are unlocked with Praxis Kits, there is a hacking minigame, takedowns can be lethal or non lethal, and each conversation offers three dialogue options. Hub based open areas such as Heng Sha island have interlocking paths and rooftop routes. It still rewards a visit for levels with several routes and fine environmental detail, and for its mix of stealth, combat and conversation.
