Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Jane Jensen

Post by DeadPoolX »

Odd combination, right? :P

Well, not that weird, really.

It seems the developers of Deus Ex: Human Revolution were fans of the GK series. That led them to choose the name "Adam Jensen" for DX:HE's protagonist, with the last name being an homage to Jane Jensen herself.

Here's the video interview where this is revealed. The link starts the video nearly two minutes into it, so it gets right to the good stuff. :)

I was actually pretty surprised when I first heard that. I've been meaning to post this for several weeks, but DPX finally did it instead. :D

I think it's really cool to hear that from a group of game developers, especially when they've been working on a game I really want to play.
