I thought there was already a Deus Ex Human Revolution trailer, but I guess it got archived or something.

Seriously, these fill me with such hope for the game that it boggles the mind. The cyber-renaissance style that hearkens to Blade Runner and both of Mamoru Oshii's Ghost in the Shell films has me completely sold, because they're really what I think cyberpunk should look like: retro thrown into the ultra-modern, with everything crumbling.

We have very very very rudimentary forms of the cloak now; I could imagine that in ~16 years (the timeframe of the game IIRC) we could have something like what they've got, especially if they've come so far with augment technology.

Do we? The best I've seen is regular cammo (which can work really well in the right terrain). Other than that I saw an interview with someone that was working on 'cloak' but he was basically in "This is how I want it to work." stages, and how he wants it to work is something that most of us could have likely told him ten years ago (Lots of tiny cameras and video screens on the armor). Funny part was he did a demonstration with one camera/video screen (12" size or so), but had the camera set poorly so when he walked behind the guy testing it, the screen didn't look anything like it should have.

Well here's some pleasant smooth jazz that shows the fruits of Japanese research in the subject.
And in case you think that's mere techno-wizard-video-editing, here's a piece from the news with Katie Couric making the requisite "Harry Potter' references. Sadly this one has no video of the actual technology, just her admitting her science ignorance and talking about Claude Rains. Still. We have rudimentary technology that allows for the type of refinement we see in the DE:HR era.

Well, she's on very thin ice. Cookie-flavoured cookie machine for reference.
