For years I've prounced Deus Ex like "Deuce (juice?) Ex". Just watched a video of the new one yesterday and heard the developers pronounce is "Day-us Ex". Have I been totally whacky all these years?

I still pronounce Sega as "See-ga" as well. Bugger this Say-ga shit.

Deus, I say a bit like juice, i thought it was more like 'doos' or 'duse', Americans will likely say it stupid like Day-oos.
Same for Sega saying it like 'say-ga' its got a E in it so to me its See-ga.

Bit like Tuna and the yanks saying it like 'toona' instead of 'tuner' or perhaps 'chuna' as it sounds, and Daiwoo being pronounced 'dayoo'

Americans are douchebags anyway, or should that be Doosbags

and a blue corvette
and everything is blue for him and hisself
and everybody around
cos he ain't got nobody to listen to

Never played the original.

Combat is bland, stealth is easy and basic, dialog is a little forced, hubs are boring, and the upgrade system is crap.

It kinda does everything half good making everything lacking.

There is a little hidden depth there somewhere though.

Dolphin sex machine. Sounds like a 70's disco outfit.
