''Deus Ex: Human Revolution is one of the stand out video games in recent times. The blend of cover-based action, and neatly balanced stealth mechanics, resulted in a complete video game experience. The themes touched upon in the main game were smart and compelling, mirroring modern society and works of science fiction. Human Revolution, even with it’s faults, was a fantastic piece of work, oozing with respect for the franchise.''
In a message posted to Reddit, Deus Ex actor Elias Toufexis said he'll always be associated with Jensen, "and that's fine with me."
He should be more heartfelt towards the team that got their game dumped on rather than making this about himself. Seriously. F- this clout chasing jack ass especially with this timing and the impact this had on the studio (the cuts and layoffs) and their families. You are outsourced and totally replaceable yo. Take this weird-azz VO actors worship and cram it.

AMD has lifted the NDA for its two new graphics cards, the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 and the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56, and below you can find a lot of gaming benchmarks from different publications that got their hands on them."
Imagine for a second if all that GPU power would be in the hands of Console developers who would optimize the heck out of it! What do you think it would come out of those games? Take Horizon as a benchmark that is running on a PS4 Pro (which equates to a medium to low level GPU compared to these beasts). If the PS5 and XBOXXX will be able to squeeze even half of these TFLOPs it would be a game changer.
If the PS5 or Nextbox has this amount of power for the GPU. Then they must pair it with a decent CPU. Otherwise we will just end up with a PS4 Pro and a XOX both have decent GPU power but are crippled by the CPU.
I cant imagine the next generation not getting a CPU refresh... There is just no way in my mind that they will use the same CPU again. They are hitting the limits.
It would be suicide if they used an old crappy CPU based of a crappy CPU that released in 2012. I imagine it would be ryzen CPU.
Looks like Vega 56 is the one to choose for a mid range card. It does have a downfall in its power consumption however in comparison to the 1070 but It should be fine.
It is just too much power for me to use in a mid level machine. I have been holding off upgrading my PC for the Ryzen 2 on 7nm chips, I may hold off on GPU as well until Navi releases. Or see what Intel is doing on that end by then. I ended up buying a RX480 since my GPU died on me and it will still do alright for another year.
But that power draw for one card... woof!
Yeah they really screwed up on the power consumption of these cards. From what I can see, they've done well with the 56 in terms of gaming performance, making it more appealing than a 1070 but their high end just isn't good enough imo. And how long will it be until volta is out??
AMD failed. They had one job and that was for ther high end to match up to the 1080ti.
What a joke.
Well I got a vega 64 in the post today
£469 intro offer!
Box is unopened, its on ebay. Let the minors have it I'm getting a 1080ti
by the time ive sold my 970, the whole upgrade from 970 to 1080ti will have cost a couple of hundred quid
Happy daze :)

I think "Content Divided" is a much better name
Oh I agree, Thief 2014 was a complete POS. Still haven't played Human Revolution, but I love the original. I'd be sad if this game realy became another mediocre shoot 'em up. No pre-order from me. Learned my lesson with thief.
Didn't they say that the combat was one of the weaker aspects of Human Revolution? That was pretty evident in the boss battles. I think that's the only reason it's being highlighted more. They already nailed the stealth. Now they're trying to make combat equally viable.
I don't see anything wrong with the pre-order deal either. It amazes me that this is the pre-order plan to generate the most hate when it's moving away from the crappier standard practice of retailer-exclusive bonuses.
When I bought Batman, I was stuck with some dumb skin from Best Buy. I couldn't get Red Hood no matter what. It was GameStop exclusive.
With Deus Ex, sure I can't get everything, but I can get what I want the most. And I can potentially get extras like the soundtrack, which aren't things that come with a game to begin with, so there's nothing wrong in offering them as bonuses. Hell, there is no shortage of special editions that go for $80 and cram in "bonuses" like that to justify charging you more than $60.
The biggest knock against this is we can't get EVERYTHING. Welcome to five years ago. Tons of games have done this, and done so without any attempt at offering choice. At least give DX credit for doing that, and not forcing us to buy it at GameStop to get the specific bonus we want.
People were writing the exact same articles prior to Deus Ex: Human Revolution's release, and now everyone's worried that the sequel won't be as good. The lesson here is wait till the game is complete before judging it.
