Deus Ex is great, regardless of the iffiness of its controls. It just has a ton of other things going for it that almost completely eclipse the awful shooting and jumping (which isn't the focus of the game anyway). Bioshock's main gameplay element is iffy, which is a much, much worse thing. If DX's exploration and level design were sub-par, then its shortcomings as a game could be compared to Bioshock's. I would argue that despite some minor flaws, Deus Ex is objectively an excellently-designed game for its ambitions.
But I really, really don't care what any of you think on this issue. I'm posting this to give some serious kudos to Vivi for his avatar and sig. Just awesome.![]()
