File under wouldn't-it-be-cool: VR Missions Fresh fom Reddit

The Metal Gear and Deus Ex franchises share more than a little in common between them: Stealth gameplay with nonlethal weapon options, conspiracy and political espionage, recognizing the FOXiest of the HOUNDs, nanomachines, media control, state-manufactured biological weapons.

Something I WISH they had in common was VR missions in the style of MGS Integral and MGS2 Substance; specially constructed mini-missions with an emphasis on a particular skill or weapon. It's too bad no SDK was released for IW or HR; as it is HR's plasma rifle gets about 5 minutes of screentime and so could use a little 'extended play' content. "Woohoo, finally got the plasma rifle! Aaand it's over." It's almost as disappointing as getting Majora's Mask and only having a single weak boss left in the game to use it on.

tl;dr Deus Ex needs a Tony Hawk skating minigame. My ollie is augmented.
