I found this at Costco for really cheap and decided to go ahead and get it. I then made the mistake of playing the bonus campaign first. I always do things backwards when I’m gaming. I can usually tell what path they want me to take and I usually try to do it differently. Usually I get burned for doing things this way. This time was no exception. I had 3 heros stacked to the gills with unique items and powerful as can be and then at the end of the first act, they tell me “To Be Continued at Blizzard.com” - basically I have to wait and download the remaining acts later. Then when I start the real campaign I’m back to square one with a weak little elf hero and lots of annoying hint bubbles telling me what I already know. Oh well.

So far the upgrades are fantastic especially with regards to item management. I hated having to leave items at the side of the road because my inventory was full. Now I can sell them or even upgrade my non-hero units to carry things for me. The new creeps are excellent as well. I know, I’ll be getting back to Deus Ex shortly, but for now this one hurts my arm less and at least I’m still gaming, right?
