James writes: "Ion Storm was a developer with a very strange list of games in their repertoire. To think that one studio could put out both Daikatana and Deus Ex in the same year, mere months apart is strange, to say the least. Daikatana was plain terrible.

A talented modder is creating an HD iteration of the classic Dues Ex (2000) experience in Unreal Engine 5. A new video reveals more details.
Cease and Desist DMCA imminent. All these fan projects get killed because they can't wait to show it off before it's complete.
Finish the mod/game then show it off and release it. If you announce it early then it can get taken down.
Still one of the best games of all time. A masterpiece in so many ways.
Tried the free deus ex we got off ps plus. Didnt find it enjoyable enough to keep playing.
I hear it was good. But the backlog wins
