Id say. play the original. R

Reason:

Both GMDX and Revision are basically made by DX Veterans for DX Veterans.

Both adress the problem that you played DX 20 times, you know all the secrets, youve heard the soundtrack over and over. You know everything about the game, it becomes boring.

So Revision gives you new music, different level design, some new stuff to discover, removes some of the easy shortcuts etc. The good thing about Revision is that its different, but if you dont know DX yet, DX vanillas is simply better.

Better music (isome oif the revision tracks are really good though), better level design (less complicated, less cluttered). Also the original AI is less smart, but the level design takes that into account. In Revision the AI sometimes behaves worse, for example, it gets stuck when using a door to ofter, thus opening and closing it again. Or the alert radius is so big, that huge areas clear themselfes by all enemies running towards you etc.

example; there is a prison escape mission. If you are too loud in your cell, someone hears you through the wall and comes along to shoot you, if that happens your dead. Its totally not what intended.

I mean Revision is great, im playing it right now and its really fun. But some things are worse.

Just take for example UNATCO. UNATCO has this clean corporate feeling about it, the music also fits with that. The new Unatco feels more comfy, with big sofas, carpets, and its a dungeon that you can get lost in. Music also not as good. I like it anyway, because its different, but it doesnt give me that same vibe.
