I'd love the prequel, I stated otherwise in May but now that I think about it, alot of things happened before DX1. And the dreams of being a mechanical augmented agent where customization makes you appear less human and more robotic makes me cream.

He had in mind if ever a DX3, he had it in mind to be a prequel to DX1.
From "TEASER TRAILER"
Like I said, could be the beginning of it all. We were TOLD that JC and Paul were the first - they THOUGHT they were. In truth, they mat not be.
If this is a prequel, does it mean we can't kill Page? DAMN!
I will answer the JC and Paul idea next.
Man, I know the feeling.
Was JC released as a kid or an adult, and how would he have any knowledge if he was released as the adult?
Also if JC is a clone of Paul, then why does paul have the same nano features, that would seem you need to be started from a fetus.
This is all covered in the DX bible, JC is like you stated confirmed to be a clown of Paul, Paul had a family but was also lied to by the NSF that both JC and him are clones, to ensure his decision.
Paul was augmented in his adult stages IIRC, JC was already augmented but memory was implanted that he got augmented too in his adult stage.
I think that its safe to say that Paul was told he had a brother who was living somewhere else, and memories implanted into each of knowing each other, infact at the docks at the beginning of the game is the only time you can be sure they've met eachother, prehaps even for the first time.
Deus Ex is fucked up.
