The idea of playing Deus Ex entirely in third person has always seemed like sacrilege to me. I like my immersive sims to be, well, immersive, to let me see the world through my character's eyes and interact with it up close and personal.

Yet having just watched several videos of Deus Ex being played in third-person, I've realised that perhaps I wouldn't be so averse to experiencing Ion Storm's cyberpunk classic from a new perspective. Especially if that new perspective involves Max Payne-style bullet dodging.
