Yeah the ending was kind of paff. Also yeah, I went into every area as a stealthy assassin but it nearly always broke out into a bulletfest... and that was fun! Both, I mean. I think I would've enjoyed it a lot less had I focused on just one style.

Greeeeeeat game. One of the better ones I've played in years. The ending was indeed a copout ending especially compared to the original Deus Ex and its powerhouse ending but overall I loved this game.
Loved Deus Ex: HR from start to finish. Such a great game.
Yeah, this is the only game where the ending managed to completely ruin the experience for me. There were a few other bothersome things as well, but my own dislike aside this really was a very well made game in just about every regard.
So, I obviously object to a lot of this list. But since it came up, Gothic 2.
Gothic 2 is, with respect to its now clearly-dated graphics and polish, probably one of the best 5 games ever made for the PC. Of course, Gothic 1 is nearly as good, and Gothic 3 is possibly even better (post-Community Patches, because G3 was not very good on release, but became good).
That world was so good. Gothic 3 did 'freedom' and 'openness' in a way that something like Oblivion (its contemporary) could only dream about - specifically, in a way that doesn't make everything seem generic and hollow, and with legitimate challenge and reward. Gothic 2 was basically a slightly more focused (but still very open) version of that.
I don't really understand why you wouldn't just play it in English, though.
I did play it in English far, far longer than I played it in German - but given I was very interested in learning German at the time (having a German girlfriend will do that to you), I liked sitting with Mandy and trying to learn as much as I could while playing the game (since she translated it all for me). We probably spent a good few hours doing that but I started my own game - in English - afterwards.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Pretty much echo everyone's sentiments about it being a fantastic game that got ruined by it's ending.
65. UFO: Enemy Unknown
PC, 1994
This game was brought to my attention by Marick in one of the best EoFF Let's Plays to ever be Marick'ed. Seriously. Anyway, I really enjoyed the thread so I started to try out the game, and I really enjoyed the game, too. It is brutally unforgiving but once you get the hang of what works and what doesn't, you can make it further and further before you are inevitably annihalated. What's not to like about that!? Seriously this game is one of the most masochistic games I have ever played but I'll be damned if it's not incredible fun (and absolutely perfect fro some great Let's Play threads). I don't think I ever beat this game. I'm pretty sure I'd remember doing so if I did, so I must have just given up after the umpteenth attempt. xD

I don't even know if I can summon up the energy to rage about this offensively low position on this list.
It should be in the top 5.
It is, without hyperbole, one of the best videogames ever made.
At least it's on the list!![]()

:<3:
Don't be mad now. Be mad over the next eight or so games when you see what I put immediately above it.

Calling it now:
Alien: Colonial Marines
It's gonna be Civ V or something.
