Join us at 3 PM ET on Twitch as we continue our look at Deus Ex

You'll have a fresh opportunity to find out (or share your own reason) when you tune into the Gamasutra Twitch channel today at 12 PM Pacific (3 PM Eastern) and join us as we continue our abbreviated playthrough of the original Deus Ex.
