Unreal Universe has a new interview, this time talking to ION's Harvey Smith about Deus Ex.

There's a new Deus Ex interview over on The Deus Ex Zone, talking to lead designer Harvey "Witchboy" Smith.

The Deus Ex Zone has posted an interview with ION Storm's Bob White, who's currently busy working there in Austin on the Deus Ex game.

RPGVault has some highlights from last night's chat with the Deus Ex team (gotta scroll down a few items on their news page). Here are some things which are kinda interesting about this Unreal-engine powered game from ION Austin:

- You can't drive cars or boats, but you can be ferried around in helicopters.
- NPCs remember things from earlier in the story.
- Players can choose the character's "real" name, skills, augmentations, skin color, play style, approach to conversation and allies, and weapons can be heavily modified. Much of the character customization occurs in the game, not before.
- The AI is based on Unreal state behavior combined with some home-grown tools and systems. Every NPC has distinctive behaviors and can switch between those behaviors based on thngs he sees and hears. Sight/sound management was added to Unreal to facilitate this.
- The game will not ship with multi-player.
- It's theoretically possible to complete the game without killing anyone, although you'll be treated badly and will be tempted.
- The game will be fairly long, especially for players who like to explore every corner of the game world.
- A demo will be released after the game ships.

I'm sure later today a full chat log will pop up somewhere.

Some followup on that DeusEx video that was released a little while ago. Stormtroopers has word from Warren Spector that the video is very out-dated and nearly all the interface stuff featured in that video has been changed.

Daily Radar finished their Deus Ex week talking to designer Warren Spector about the game.

InciteGames has posted some new video footage of Deus Ex from Ion Storm Austin.

The Deus Ex week on Daily Radar continues with three character bios.

The link was dead this morning, but Daily Radar got around to uploading the story of Deus Ex as continuation of their Deus Ex week.

The Daily Radar Deus Ex week continued with a new full preview, along with more screenshots. Give it to me already!

Daily Radar has kicked off their Deus Ex week with five new screenshots of the game, along with a short preview. For reasons unknown they found it nescessary to post the shots in .GIF, which is of course a horrible format for game screenshots, having only 256 colors. There will be more art and an interview with Warren Spector and the rest of the team during the week.

This one even shorter than the one mentioned in the previous story, but making up for it with new screenshots is this Q&A on GA-RPG talking to Warren Spector about his game Deus Ex.

Bob White from Ion Storm has another development update on the progress of Deus Ex at Ion Austin. It sounds like the game is pretty well on its way to completion and they are entering the final stages of development.

Incite Games has four more Deus Ex screenshots, showing the other ION Storm game. I'm really looking forward to this one.

The boys at Incitegames got their hands on three new Deus Ex screenshots. This ION Storm Unreal engine game should be finished pretty soon.

There's an interview with ION Storm designer Bob White over on Unreal Universe. Bob is one of the designers on Deus Ex. On ION's bad rep with release dates: "The Austin group has a sense of drive and purpose unprecedented in the company. We will make our dates. "

GameSpotUK has scored some new information on DeusEx currently in development over at Ion Austin. You can check out the interview with Warren Spector who is heading up the project. On top of that they have a hands-on experience with the game in its current state. Lastly, you can have a look at the screenshot gallery here which has a few repeats from the original shot index I've got locally.

More importantly though, there is a pressing question that we are all facing here in the new year, Who would win in a chick fight? Buffy, Trinity, Ripley, Xena, or Maarten?

The guys at Unreal Universe have another Deus Ex development update from ION Storm designer Bob White. This update is mainly about the QA team they brought in to thoroughly test the game.

The Stormtroopers page has a few screen captures of a Deus Ex video presentation which shows off a few scenes from the Unreal engine Ion Storm RPG by Warren Spector which look pretty cool. Thanks Loony

Unreal Universe spotted a post by ION's Bob White on the Deus Ex forums about the drugs in the game and how they affect you. Read it right here.
