Pros: Atmosphere, Story, Sound, Worthy Prequel, Controls, PC Compatibility

Cons: Dated Graphics, Watered-down RPG Gameplay, Unrealistic Ragdoll

Great prequel that captures the atmosphere, story and style of the original. Unfortunately its gameplay has turned into nothing more than a mainstreamed glorified FPS, but otherwise still manages to hold up a candle to the classic, in its own right. Human Revolution being a breathe of fresh air, needed from all the cashcow, generic and unoriginal shoot'em ups plaguing the games industry nowadays.

Making it a game that I can easily recommend to newcomers to the franchise, also a nice taste for what's to come with the series for the veterans.

So you're saying that I should play this first, then the old ones? Your logic makes no sense.
It makes perfect sense. DX:HR is the first game in the series' story, therefore you should play this first if you haven't play the other two. It helps set the foundation of the DX universe and is much easier to follow for newcomers.
Just bought the collection from Steam. Thank you for mention this, I was tempted on going back in time first.
I disagree on the dated graphics. DX11 and tessellation made it look pretty damn sweet. The ragdoll was ok in some senses, I quite liked that.
