The team at Eidos Montreal borrowed the best elements from each of these franchises and made it their own, successfully weaving a game that lives up to its series' legacy of giving the player ultimate choice. The best way I can describe Human Revolution is a cross between Metal Gear Solid and Mass Effect. It's an incredibly deep and layered game with a cerebral storyline that will charm even the most jaded cyberpunk enthusiast-a true complement to the game's great Blade Runner-inspired art direction.
