Pretty high recommended GPU spec, HD5850 is a pretty fast card....

By the way are we allowed to talk about the leak? Oddly, Square Enix allows some discussion on their own forums so I figured it would be OK here.

Will buy and recommend others to as well if you enjoyed the first game.

Should run fine on my 275 SLI then.

Rather than some arbritrary specs thrown in that is "Supports Dx9c" essentially.

Deus 1 still has great replay value.
Really hoping this isn't rubbish.

Well if that's the case I'll give my impressions on the first 15 minutes or so before my game crashed. The voices seemed pretty good with maybe exception to Adam. Sounds like the guy had a sore throat when doing his lines but after a couple of minutes it works well enough. I don't think it's much of a spoiler when I say you get to look around during an automated 5 minute walk through a building and can check out all the stuff around you as you go.
I opened up the tutorial when I got full control of my character as noticed that it was telling me that to duck I push left control stick down. I shut the tutorial down so I'm not sure if there is a zoom but right click seems to magnatise you to the nearest wall. A bit odd that but eh I can see how you will be using it a lot.
I was playing on the hardest difficulty so when I saw 2 guys standing around talking I figured "pfft, watch this and learn rookies" and proceeded to get killed in 3 shots. You don't f*** around in this game. You die. Fast. I like that if you go in guns blazing (at least on hardest) you get owned so looks like this may be a stealth game. I like stealth games. I doubt i'll boot the thing back up as my brief time with it seemed enough to warrant me placing a pre-order for the collector's edition. Sold.
EDIT - Ok there is an ironsights thingo. Middle mouse. Anyway it seems the hardest difficulty turns off all of your hud markers so you only have a gun on screen. Either that or I havn't picked up the hud enabling item yet or there is something wrong with my graphics.
Biggest thing that s**** me though (and not just with this game) is why the f*** is mouse sensitivity so hard to program with some games? I want the mouse to go the same damn speed it is when I'm outside of the game. I don't want it suddenly to jump 4x the speed. F*** sake it's like they've never used a mouse before and it's some exotic component to a computer.

The preview build is supposed to be around 4 - 5 hours long which is apparantly the first boss of chapter 1. There are 5 chapters so I can only hope that they are all that long, if not longer. Could work out to be quite a long game. GOOD. Can't wait.
EDIT - Ok the thing about 5 chapters is wrong. The symbols on the load screen showed how far into the mission/chapter I was. Anyway finished the first mission and went the stealth route. Killed no one, fired no guns except for a few dart gun knock downs. There really is a fair few ways you can go about stuff in this game which really helps me feel like I have choices. I can go in and kill them all standard FPS style, I can go in stealth and kill when I need to, or take the real stealth route and take the hidden passages and totally avoid everyone and kill no one or even knock them out. You even get a "Ghost" exp bonus if no one spots you during a mission.
For Augments you get these credit type things and you can pick from a list of about 15 - 20 different types. They range from personal defense abilities (360 degree grenade attack) to stealth ones, and passive ones like higher jumping, more stength and better hack abilities. Not sure if you will have enough to buy them all but I doubt it so it comes down to what type of game you want to play really.
Oh while I remember too hacking is actually fun in this game. You get this spider web layout screen and you have to get from your point, to the right icon on the screen. However hacking nodes has a 60% chance (by default) to trigger an alarm. When this happens an alarm goes off and you have 35 seconds or less to finish the hack or you fail. What is good though is that it isn't just a flat 35 seconds. You see a red line slowly trace to your entry into the system which is like the computer is anti-hacking you. So you can set up defenses at nodes so the progress of the CPU takes longer or you can just flat out nuke the nodes using special viruses you find which I assume allow you to instantly capture a node you choose.
Anyway I deleted the game now and treated it just as a demo and I am very impressed. Good graphics (it's very yellow. A nice change from coffee brown and grey but still a little annoying) and runs smooth on my system.
