Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the anticipated prequel to the cult-classic Deus Ex franchise, is just a few short weeks away.

Though my recent preview discussed some of the subtleties of the franchise, the latest trailer for the game explores the game's "bigger picture." Learn about the world, the game's hero Adam Jensen, his plethora of choices, and the abilities he will have at his disposal in his upcoming battle.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution launches for the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 on August 23 in North America.

    I too would love to watch this, but anything involving plot has to be kept in the media blackout

    Other than naming the major cities you visit and, of course, showing gameplay from real locations within the game (although nothing recognizable to me), I didn't see anything spoilery. The trailer does a great job of summing up the essence of the game for anyone who either knows nothing about the game, or anyone who's still on the fence.
    
    From everything I've seen and played... this is game of the year, easily... for me, it'll probably game of the last 5-10 years.

    I usually just assume that every game will suck, that way I am never disappointed but every now and then I'm pleasantly surprised!

      I'll take it one step further though. I will assume everything sucks and just not buy anything.

    Well Alpha Protocol gave it a weird modern spy/deus ex/mass effect fusion. Loved it.

  Its cool that bros are staying pure, but I really don't regret spoiling the game for myself, now the wait is just more intense but has no anxiety about whether it will be good or not - because it will 0wn!
