    Plus you only have to kill 2 people in the game, awesome. I love playing like a total wuss, baton to the back gnight. It's aweomness needs some time to sink in, had to force myselve through the first levels so I kinda on the same level. It gets really interesting after Hell's Kitchen. Unlike most I love Tokyo, so incredibly atmospheric and not that much combat, more adventuring.

    Officially you only actually had to kill one person (depending on ending) but there was actually a way to complete the game without killing that person, video is on youtube if your intrested, involves catching a gas grenade and the exit door gets opened for you....

    It was Hong Kong not Tokyo, i liked it somewhat but i think it was mainly all the loading areas that did my head in, my least favourite part would have to be right at the start of the Paris level...

    GAH. Hongkong of course. Been playing too much (if there is such a thing) The world end with You and that is situated in Tokyo. But comming from a fellow Deus Ex fan, go play IW it's not the same but still the closest you can get. When it actually does feel like a Deus-Ex it's a gift from heaven, and some of it's best settings rival those of the first, especially an creepy as hell artic base is absolutily awesome. You will be dissapointed but have a good time nonetheless.

    Loved the Hong Kong bit too. Plenty of new characters, didn't know who was double-dealing who. Staying in taht area captured the feeling of unravelling a conspiracy, and the setting was great.

    I missed out on the bit because

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    I accidently discovered that paper lantern in maggie chows apartment on the first visit, i was just looking around...


    that probably made the level less impressive first time round..

    A fellow fan of the original here. Quite surprised to find so many fans, everyone I know hates it. The atmosphere is excellent, and I loved playing as a hacker....

    My favourite level is definitely Hell's Kitchen.

    A quick search of The Arena should find some topics with praise.

    Mind you, it's not perfect. When it's at it's best it's absolutely fantastic; at some points, however, you will be frustrated. Thankfully the great outweighs the iffy.

    Make sure you download the unofficial patch if you do get it.

    If he does, should be careful - one doesn't just patch, but makes a whole load of gameplay changes which I didn't much like.

    Do NOT get the unofficial patch!
    Get the True Patch by tessmage instead. It has actual bug fixes instead of crappy gameplay changes.
