http://beefjack.com/news/worlds-first-deus-ex-human-revolution-review-drops/So there you have it folks, intrested at all? Well then it seems its worth your money! Remembering that PC gamer gave Deus Ex 1 a 95 and continue to call it "the best game ever" 94 seems reallly really good. Discuss!

Well it wasn't that far off. And plus, this is a PC gaming magazine, you just know that they've played the original and think this is almost as good as the first.

Pc gamer has been giving out scores lately, they gave dragon age 2 a 94, gave the turd of a game Duke nukem an 80, i mean really? Do they need money that bad? They are a PC gaming site and yet they have Gamefly ads on their site, they also used to have Xbox 360 ads along with kinect crap, along with gamestop ads. Wheres the AMD and intel add love PC gamer, whres the Nvidia ads. Joke of a site. That site is nothign more than a bunch of fanobys and nerds complaining on every article post.

That confuses me. In my PC Gamer magazine they gave it a 29 (UK) I think DNF should be around 70.

Wow, I have always respected PC Gamer's opinions on games, but I am shocked to hear that they gave Duke Nukem Forever an 80.

I have seen them give far better games a lower score than that, and while I realize that game reviews are nothing more than one man's opinion, it is very hard to accept that a reviewer from PC Gamer honestly feels that DNF deserved an 80.

Game reviewers (and the sites and magazines that they work for) are already on thin ice when it comes to gamers trust in them, and stuff like this doesn't help their case.

It was VERY far off.

These guys are not very reliable reviewers. Most of their reviews come first so they give big scores to look good

PC US gave it an 80, the reveiw is up on the site. I am not even joking. My jaw dropped when I saw that crap, almost as bad as gamesradar giving Darkest of Days an 8/10 as well.

While I've no doubt HR will be great, PC gamer usually gets gets paid by publishers to hype games by giving them big scores (they're usually the first ever review for that game). The DA2 review (9.4) was released several days before the game even went gold. Their credibility is zero

Pc gamer is owned by a big publishing company called Future Publishing, which publishes official Xbox magazine, Playstation 3 magazine, PC format, Mac format, CVG, games radar (eeeeewww), along with a plethora of other magazines and sites. Yeah PC gamer is a joke, thats why I go to Giantbomb and Gamespot, and destructoid. They seem to be more level headed, (destructoid is troll journalism which is funny) and GiantBomb is the best Independent Review site out there today.

I have watched quite a few videos on YouTube showing gameplay of the "leaked" preview build and.. well, lets just say it gets things right that IW got horribly wrong. From the looks of it the PC interface is... wait for it... optimised for PCs! Shocker, I know [damn you IW]. They brought back much of what made Deus Ex 1 awesome in my eyes - the levels look pretty large [IW was broken up into far to many enclosed chunks to make it easier for the console to digest] and there are tons of things to explore and avenues to do things. They brought back the typing in of codes/passwords for hacking/bypassing [rather than just pointing a multi-tool at it and going or having a passcode added and just open the affected terminal/door]. There seem to be multiple ways to complete any mission [and mix and match methods without serious repurcussion - see the PCG "diaries" for some.. interesting play style choices (especially the Psycho diary)] - there are little side missions you could easily miss if you are a run'n'gunner. Just from the various official videos and the youtube videos of the unauthorized preview "leak" my hype level is actual still quite high. There is some nostalgia in the PCG review score, that is to be expected, but in the end I think this one makes up for their scoring for DA 2.

Wasn't far off? That review was an absolute abomination, the writer overlooked the games glaring faults and inconsistencies entirely in favour of gushing. And it was of course, an early review well before other publications, so its no wonder it was out the door so soon. However the writer of the HR review, was the one who did TW2 (who scored it in the 80s, and has made it established that 94% for DA2 isn't what they had in mind at all, so I'm willing to give them a bit of credibility).

True, everything I've heard about the leaked build is promising, surprisingly. While I'm still irked by the complete lack of melee weapons and that focus on cut scenes, character dialogue with the players input, removing control yada yada, I'm getting the picture that it'll be genuinely good and in the spirit of Deus Ex in its own right.

PC Gamer make as many 'mistakes' as just about any other gaming review site/mag out there. To call them a joke for a couple of odd scores is ridiculous, they capture the PC gaming community very well, why do you think they stay in business? Also why do people state "Oh they are the ones that gave XX a score of YY". Everything they review is reviewed independently from one person.

PC Gamer like anyone - makes review scores based on its own evaluation of a games merits and problems. This will always have differencing qualities to what anyone else would see as this is human nature (we are not all the same). Nevertheless the review gives me hope that Deus Ex HR will once again cement the series as one of the greatest that ever graced the PC hall of fame and undo the damage that was Invisible War (although a good game compared to the original was a let down in my eyes)

"[it's] absolutely the Deus Ex of our age, a genuinely worthy prequel, and a game that puts almost everything else in the genre to shame."

That is very good to hear, also have heard very good things from friedn who played the leaked beta/alpha awhile back. Cant wait to try this one!

PC Gamer has had some horrid review scores in the past, but so has EVERY single magazine/website that has ever been around. Not every review score can be what you feel it deserves.

PC Gamer has zero credibility left. I just canceled my 12 month subscription and it is probably the worst magazine I've ever read. It's like it's run by high school kids or something. The editing (or lack thereof) alone make it a joke.

Exactly! I bet if Gamespot gave it a 9.0-9.5 a lot of people will be like "Yay! Awesome." Mind you, they have forgotten about some very bad reviews from the past and in recent memory. But that goes to show how people think of things.. sad.

Doesn't prove anything considering many game nowadays get 10/10 or 9/10 and are mediocre in my eyes. While I think the new Desu ex will be a good game, i'll pass my own verdict based upon my own opinion rather then some elses.

Regardless of who it came from i'm still going to be dubious of 1 score of 90+. 1 score of 90+ is meaningless these days for reviews of anything. Now if it gets that score across the board with reviewers and the gamespot user population, then i'll be substantially less guarded.

Screw it. I shouldn't say this, but I'll be honest: I played the leak and it's good. I buy all of my games, but I had to try the leak. HR is a definite pre-order for me. HR has a lot more in common with the Deus Ex than IW. I think the full game will be a lot of fun.

PC Gamer still publishes a magazine. I question the judgment of pc game critics that are stuck in yesteryear.

Why the hell do you people **** so much when they give a good score to a game you don't like. Not everyone hates the games you do. Let's get over ourselves, shall we?

Edit: Now I see someone disreagards them due to them publishing a magazine.....holy ****

Most people here actually do want the game to be as good as PC Gamer claims it is. But they have learned from some of their past reviews that their hopes can be crushed. Most recently is probably Dragon Age 2. As for my magazine comment, have you seen a PC Gamer magazine lately? It is very thin, mostly ads. Their subscription rate has dropped substantially in the past several years. The only way they could possibly be profitable is by getting paid by large game companies to give good scores to AAA hyped titles.

Hey I'm not a huge fan of them, but I don't go around downplaying their credibility because I don't see eye to eye with them on a couple of reviews. See, I understand the concept of differing opinions. Anyways about your comment, perhaps you should've said what you just replied with. Instead of downgrading them because they put out magazines. I love video game/pc hardware magazines. I guess I am stuck in yesteryear as well.

As do I, which is why I felt the need to first reply to you with my differing opinion.

when a magazine rates a game you find to be terrible as "incredible" you may find yourself reluctant to get too excited about another game they rate as highly. clearly your taste differs to theirs. it's hardly an unreasonable line of thought
