spoilers time so don't click unless you hate yourself.

Spoiler!
the after-credits video only makes sense to those who played and remember the original Deus Ex. there's quite a few nods to the original game interspersed throughout the campaign, then that big one at the end. i also liked the few Canadian references put in, nice to see Edios Montreal being a bit patriotic

and while i liked DX3, the story just didn't grab me as much as the first game did, which i think is because everything only became clear at the very end. in the original Deus Ex, after uncovering the main conspiracy early on, you had a main villain at the top and you just filled in the details as you went along. with Human Revolution there was no clear aggressor until the final mission, and the final battle was pretty lame. i'm gonna give it a second playthrough to change some choices and get some of the things i missed, but i won't end up playing the ever loving crap out of it like i did Deus Ex
