Hello everyone! Can someone please tell me what's the highest military rank you can achieve in this game? I reached "major" rank early in the game but I can't get anymore promotions. Thank you.

I think the highest is Major actually, was in the original. After all you don't see many Generals in the field

Thank you Jason, you know a lot about this game. By the way did you know your name is Greek. It's called Iason or Iasonas in Greek. Do you have Greek ancestors or is it an ordinary name for Australia? I hope you don't mind me asking

Yes I did know it was Greek, I didn't know it was Iason or Iasonas in Greek though - very interesting indeed!
Jason isn't that popular of a name in Australia (or many places it seems), it's not extremely rare just not often used these days. My parents named me after the character Jason from the movie
Jason and the Argonauts 
a classic film

Yes, I didn't know that film existed, but the story I have read when I was a boy. It is one of the greatest stories-myths in Greek Mythology. I have read the Greek mythology many times from different authors. It looks like your parents admired the Greek mythology. Have a look at the Deus Ex Human Revolution trailer
here. They use a very popular Greek myth at the beginning. It is the myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Also, in this game the main character, Adam Jensen, is voiced by Greek actor Toufexis, I think his first name is Elias. Toufeki means rifle in Greek. So his name, Toufexis, means something like "Rifleman". The whole project is Canadian, developed by Eidos Montreal.
