Deus Ex: Invisible War Review

GameOver has tossed up a review of Deus Ex: Invisible War, giving the futuristic RPG an overall score of 82%. Check it out:
Ultimately, if I were to describe Invisible War in a few lines I would have to stress that the game's edges have been softened for the mass market. Many of the original's complexities have been watered down for easier consumption. Because it takes place so much further into the future, it also loses some of the familiarity. The United Nations no longer exists and in this game you lack a brother whom you can trust and depend on. There's no clear right or wrong, good or evil side in the game. That's supposed to be a feature. But it's a double-edged sword. At least with the United Nations, I knew where I stood. With the various pretender successors in this title, you never really get a solid attachment to anything or anyone. You don't care as much about the protagonist. And that is something that made the original game so great. Sadly, it's not as pronounced here.
