It was the international space station. I remembered it being that but I couldn't figure out where I got that idea from so I figured I imagined it and didn't call it that when I talked about Jerry Wildman in this thread.

That's the problem with all the random bits of information out there, they're random. There's nowhere you can look to see, "This is what they said about the space station." I may have to hijack the TNM wiki to use for such a database. (Which will happen right after I fill all of the existing or wanted pages with useful accurate information. Which should happen any time now. Any time now.)
That's why I have my own Deus Ex archive. A few years ago I started salvaging whatever interviews, previews, random bits of information, concept art, preview screenshots, preview videos and so on were left on the internet. Though I guess you have such an archive as well...

@Dragon: that image is a preview image of DXIW. Also, the link works for me.

I watched the video and made a text-log of it. Personally though I think it contains lots of preview bla-bla without anything useful. If you insist I'll post a translation of it though.

Yeah I was told it didn't say anything much useful. Think I got most of what I wanted to see from watching the video.

Reviving the thread, since it's so useful.

Any plans to remake, for example, Sam Carter model or popping up computer screens? Not necessarily moon base, but the old concept of Tiffany Savage was quite cool.

EDIT: A link I found: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/3 ... eus_ex.php and an interview with Warren Spector showing some pre-release parts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpFQkcOz ... re=related

Noticed a long time ago in a few of the Deus Ex music UMX files, a few have patterns unused either in the music itself, or in the game and wondered if this was a sign of stuff removed from the game?

UNATCO Return music has outtro music but is unused in the game as does the Battery Park music.

Paris Cathedral music has some patterns created but unused in the music (organ music and sounds like it was meant for the music used in the Cathedral but not used) and unless I am wrong, there are a few unused patterns of Versalife music which were created and never used in the music.

Not sure if other music has unused patterns or parts of music unused in the game.

Battery Park
Sewer(?)
Hong Kong Temple (man, those Triad skins would be pretty neat to have in DXN!)
747 Hangar

Alternate mechanics and Alex J. at Vandenberg

Alternate mechanics and Alex J. at Vandenberg - Like the mechanics, but is it me, or does it look as if the one on the left has a bit of a creepy smile? (probably due to the lighting)
I found this, but not sure if its an early screenshot or what, but it does look like the black helicopter has blades in this one (pity its a bit small): http://cdn1.dfgfile.com/a/dfg/imgs/prod ... ex_1_l.jpg

I have seen a screenshot (might have been a different one) with the same on the belt. I thought it could have been a early shuriken, before the final throwing knives?

Thanks to reverse Image search I was able to find some links for pictures I saved some time ago :
1.http://www.3dnews.ru/games/deusex/ (Unfortunately the pics are VERY low quality).
2. Slideshow with 6 pictures here (some have already been reported I think)
http://www.jeuxvideo.fr/jeux/deus-ex/im ... show_no_js

Here are a few more pics- since I can't find the site I got them from I'll just share them :

Not sure if you guys have checked all the videos of DX1 early build uploaded by this person:

http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF1A6B2C5C7A5DDDC

One of the video shows the player killing Jaime Reyes.
There is also an early version of Leo Gold.
