When we greeted "Deus Ex" as a liberator from a first-person shooter genre that badly needed a growth spurt, few probably predicted history would repeat itself 11 years later.

But here we are, neck-deep in a genre that's reverted to old habits and covered them up with cinematic flimflam. And here's "Deus Ex: Human Revolution," which holds so true to its pedigree that what was amazing then is amazing all over again now.

This isn't immediately apparent, because while "Revolution" quickly establishes itself as a cover shooter — with a third-person perspective while in cover — it also makes a point to let you know that attacking enemies at the front door is as viable a tactic as using stealth to neutralize them from behind. The cover interface makes complete use of the controller and requires some finger gymnastics when "Revolution's" other systems are in play, but once you acquaint yourself, all the pieces — responsive controls, satisfying gunplay, intelligent enemy A.I. and an intuitive cover mechanic — are there.

From wikipedia:
John Gunther (August 30, 1901 – May 29, 1970) was an American journalist and author whose success came primarily in the 1940s and 1950s with a series of popular sociopolitical works known as the "Inside" books. He is best known today for the memoir Death Be Not Proud about the death of his teenage son, Johnny Gunther, from a brain tumor.

Gunther grew up in Chicago and attended the University of Chicago, where he was literary editor of the student paper.
