It honestly looks good.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution's hacking mini-game involves capturing nodes against the clock before a red line representing anti-intrusion measures can reach the first node and trace your location.
Is it just me or does that sound exactly like Bioshock's hacking?

Ah interesting, I was wondering how the "social augs" might work. Now I'm curious to see one of these things in action.

Looks like the console version, I wonder what the PC version will be like...
You're looking at it.

Right, because ABXY X-Box buttons on a PC would make perfect sense... I sure hope they'll do more than merely relabelling the buttons :erg:

EM's actually said they have someone who will customise the controls and UI for the PC (ie, a port), apparently blissfully unaware how this sounds. They've also said all versions will be identical, so actually relabeling the buttons is probably the most we can expect them to port. (And even if they forgot about that it wouldn't be the first PC game to sport xbox icons and buttons.)
You just know this game is not being made for PC (also the reason why they abandoned first-person view for much of the game). It'll probably be just another bad port suffering from even basic issues such as (

Well..they could have something like "press left shoulder button to drop to 3rd person mode and do awesome quicktime takedowns: PC USERS-THIS CANNOT BE REMAPPED"
Thus sorta satisfying both PC and console peeps. :D

Has anyone heard if there will be a lean function in the game? To me any game that's touting stealth as one of the main components, needs to have it.
I'm getting cautiously optimistic about this. I was just over at their forums, and reading the faq about the game it does seem that there're trying to bring the core elements of the original game into this one.
One can only hope.
