This game look like Deus Ex HR, but game-play feel like COD. The environment looks very good, very futuristic design, and surprisingly most areas feels unique, they don't feel recycled from level to level. And it try to introduce some kind of implant system to make it feel like Deus ex as well, but it is far less complex

The game play is pure action shooter, which is fun to use. The hacking mechanic is also pretty decent, it added a new layer to combat, hacking while fighting can be interesting

The boss fight are really bad, it has some of the most frustrating boss fight, which result you in instant death and you have to learn the boss's pattern over and over again while you are dying.

The regular combat can be fun, the problem is, most of the enemy are extremely heavy armored, sometimes it would take up to half magazine of your weapon just to take down 1 enemy, and a lot of them they spawn up to a dozen enemy to fight you. Which is not that bad, because it add some challenge to the game play.

Overall, I feel this game introduces some good game mechanic, but still it feels like a rip off, it does not advance the shooter game forward, but I had some fun playing it. I just feel like I will be forgetting about this game very soon in the near future.
