Now that Deus Ex has been cancelled, what other games scratch the Deus Ex itch? (lemm.ee)

It's kind of sad that one of the greatest video game series is on hold for now.
Conspiracy theories, multiple ways of solving a mission, game lore hidden in computer inboxes...
Are there any (pre-2010) games that gave you the same feeling or do a similar thing?

It reviewed badly, but there's actually a gem of a game hiding in there. A lot of the gameplay feels clunky, but the RPG aspects are really well done (it's Obsidian, they're kind of good at that). It's a spy game that lets you decide whether you're James Bond, Jason Bourne, or Jack Bauer, and really respects those choices in the way the story plays out.
