Aquinas spoke of the mythical "city on a hill." Soon that city will be a reality, and Bitmobbers will be crowned its kings. Or better than kings. Gods

Interested? Then join us for our latest Bitmob Wants You callout by writing about the Deus Ex series.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Deus Ex: Human Revolution hits stores next Tuesday, but we're looking for articles about any of these sci-fi role-playing games. If you want to do a standard review when the new title hits, you can do that, but we're looking for you to fire up those cranial augmentations and get creative. 

Here are a few questions to consider...while wearing sunglasses indoors, of course:

  • If you could have any augmentation you wanted, what would you choose?
  • What do the Deus Ex games have to say about our society's reliance on technology?
  • How would a standard soldier feel about fighting alongside the Dentons?
  • How can Deus Ex's open-ended level design apply to other titles and genres?

Those are just ideas, though -- as in the games themselves, any path you choose can be the right one. Here's how to join in:

1. Write any article related to Deus Ex. Keep it concise -- about 200-400 words should do it, but you're welcome to go longer if you choose.

2. Make sure you put Deus Ex (or its sequels) in the tags for your article -- and don't forget to tag any other games you mention.

3. Submit your article to the Mobfeed by Tuesday, August 30, 2011. We'll post a collection of your work the next day.

You have your orders, Bitmobbers. Now get writing!

I already did!

EDIT: And the link won't work.... For the better, I suppose. Looking back... eh....

Doing the game the justice it deserves sounds like a good enough excuse to write something else, and those prompts are pretty tempting....
