Games I like: Deus Ex: Human Revolution

IN A NOT SO DISTANT FUTURE ... EVERYTHING IS TOTALLY FUCKED.

Yeah, yeah. We've seen it before. In 2027, humans are able to upgrade themselves with mechanical augmentations. Multinational corporations are more powerful than governments. Science is flourishing like never before. Something, somewhere, has to go wrong.

And this here guy's here to fix it.
Scientists, of course, have dubious morals. On the flipside, the people who claim to be on the side of justice blow stuff up. Adam Jensen, head of security for the biotech firm Sarif Industries, experiences both things firsthand when he is caught in the crosshairs of a brutal terrorist attack on the company's HQ. His wounds would have killed him, had not Jensen's employer put him back together. He wakes up from surgery to find large parts of his body replaced by cutting-edge prostheses. More machine than man, Jensen is now a supersoldier, a living weapon ... and as he sets off to track down the people behind the assault on his corporation, he picks up on the trail of something much bigger. Something that encompasses the entire world.
