Commentary

Gwog: Man, I never used that thing for much more than opening crates. Kinda interested in seeing just what it's like to boost your pistol skill way up...

Despot: Maybe it's just me, but the pistol never seems to do much at long range. Even with headshots. Come to think of it, it doesn'tt do much at *short* range, either. Hmm, perhaps there's a reason to invest skill points in Weapons: Pistol afterall.

It does make some pretty fireworks if you point it at a crate of TNT and pull the trigger, though.
Buzz Kirkwood: Pistols? You mean you could *use* those?? Are you telling me I went through Deus Ex with a crowbar for nothing??

O(V)eG@: can't.. stop... must.. kill... pigeons... ugh! Why did they do it? why did they make shooting pigeons so much damn fun? why, why, why! every New York mission, pigeons, pigeons everywhere! Just asking to be shot! perhaps they should have taken all the content out of Deus Ex; maybe they should have filled every level with pigeons. Maybe they should have re-boxed it and sold it as Pigeon Hunter. Then I wouldn't feel so.. damn.. bad... for... >BANG< ...oops; there was a UNATCO troop behind that there pigeon...
