For a game that is upfront priced in the higher tier of mobile games ($6.99) to also have in app purchases that range from $1.99 - $99.99 per item is a bit insulting.
Con Touch controls awkward for shooting
Firefights are best avoided as the shooting mechanics in the game feel awkward on a touch screen and just do not react fast enough for the gameplay.

Bad gameplay on it's own but compared to how great the real Deus Ex games are it's in shambles, a disgrace to the franchise.
