If I can give some input before you do the redesign, I don't think it's necessary to replicate exactly what's there at the moment. Presumably, you intend to include all the links/info already on the main page while just changing the style. I personally think it'd be okay to cut some of it down/change it up if needed.

For example, when it comes to the main slider, some of the links could be gotten rid of since they're not the most popular categories. In particular, the link to "Items" isn't needed and arguably neither is the link to "Organizations" since they are repeated on the slide for each game. Actually, I'd go as far as saying that a main slide that links to general categories of characters, organizations, weapons, etc. from all of the games isn't needed at all. To me it makes much more sense to just have a slide (or equivalent) dedicated to each game and link to the particular characters, organizations, weapons, etc. relevant to that game.

Since there are additions to the series apart from the main 4 games, having a slide for "Deus Ex series" would be sensible, sort of like what the Dragon Age Wiki does on their main page. I'd also like if links to categories was kept to a minimum since large categories can be difficult to navigate and if I'm being honest, look sort of ugly.

I'm sure you have experience with these sort of redesign's, so I'll leave the rest to you but these are just some thoughts on the subject. However, if you want any more suggestions I'd be happy to give them!
