I'd love an HD re-release of the first game. It's still getable for PC, but I'd much prefer a console version.

I'm just worried that the boss fights would be nearly impossible that way. I still remember getting Deus Ex for my birthday in 2000 and being blown away.
Non-lethal is indeed impossible for boss fights. They don't count towards non-lethal achievements etc.

They outsourced the boss fights to another studio for some reason. Thats why they suck.

Pretty much, yeah. They apparently "fixed" them for the HD edition. I never did get around to checking that out.

Any Xbox One Destiny players? I'd love to add some people to my friend list to play with more regularly. I have a 2 friends that are level 31 with me, but besides them I sometimes struggle to find someone to take on the weekly heroic or nightfall.

How many of those have supposedly aged well? I think my passion is waning. I see an undertaking where in the past I would have seen an opportunity.

I always see people posting about the KOTR games. I only ever played the Battlefront games. They were fun when I was playing against my brother
