I have not yet written a full article on video games due to the fact I have to play through an entire game before I can discuss it (and many of these games are brutally boring). This does not however mean that the video game industry is not used to promote ideas. Quite to the contrary, videos games are probably the most potent mediums to sell agendas because they immersing, interactive and sometimes addictive. The power of videos games reside in the fact that players identify themselves with the protagonist they control. This connection greatly facilitates the selling of ideas as they do not appeal to the rational thought but to the emotions.
我仍沒有寫過一整篇的文章有關視頻遊戲,由於那事實我要玩完整套遊戲在我可討論它之前(和許多這些遊戲都是殘酷地無聊的)。然而這並不意味視頻遊戲行業沒被用來推廣思想。恰恰相反,視頻遊戲可能是最有力的媒介去販賣議程,因為它們是使人深陷、互動和有時令人上癮。視頻遊戲的力量駐留在事實,玩家證明他們自己用他們所控制的主角,這層關係大大地方便販賣想法,因為他們不對理性思維上訴,而是對情緒。
Deux Ex: Human Revolution will enable the players to take on the role of a man who has been “upgraded” by transhumanism. In the unstable context of the 2027, his robot parts are obviously an advantage when its time to kick the ass of flesh-and-bone humans. Here’s the trailer.
Deus Ex:人類革命將能使玩家担起一個男人的角色,他已被超人類主義“升格“。在2027年不穩定的情況下,他的機器人部分是有明顯的優勢,是他的時間去踢人類的屁股肉和骨。這是該預告片。

Probably the most significant part of the trailer is the H+ sign at the very end.
可能預告片最重要的一部分是在最後的H+標誌。

h+在預告片結束
H+ is the standard symbol to identify transhumanism, which is an “intellectual and cultural movement that affirms the possibility and desirability of fundamentally transforming the human condition through technology”. In simple terms, it promotes the merging of humans with robots.
H+是標準符號用以確定超人類主義,那是一項“智力和文化運動,以肯定通過科技從根本上改變人類條件的可能性和可取性“。簡單來說,它促進人類與機器人的融合。
