Has it really been ten years since Deus Ex first launched? We were expecting everyone in the real world to be part man, part machine, and part black leather trenchcoat by now. Oh well. At least Steam's still offering a nice consolation prize: Deus Ex in its entirety for so little that you can probably go take a quick dig through your couch cushions and announce, “I can now afford one of the greatest games of all time.”
Previously $9.99, Deus Ex is now available for the paltry sum of $2.50. Or, throw a couple extra dollars in the pot and you can nab both Deus Ex and its decent-but-not-amazing sequel Deus Ex: Invisible War for a grand total of $4.98. So basically, it's Deus Ex's birthday, but we're the ones getting the presents.
It's an excellent deal, and with Deus Ex: Human Revolution right around the corner, there's no better time to find out what all the hubbub's about. What else are you going to use $2.50 for? Some gum? Enough gas to get you to the pump right in front of you so you can refuel for real this time? This one sounds like a no-brainer to us.

Oh boy, I get a dumb grin any time any one mentions Deus Ex. It is by far the greatest game I have ever played, and I am a LONG time gamer. My physical copy will be buried with me when I die.
I am anxiously awaiting Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I hope, HOPE, it can capture just some of the awesomeness of the first one. If it can, it will be a smashing success.

I started playing it a few weeks ago. It is an amazing game and is one of the most realistic I have played to date. Not to mention it came out 10 years ago.

In this day and age, this game may not fair quite so well (1st and 2nd Deus Ex). This is because grahpics and some storylines have outdone this game. However, imo, I liked this game for what it did at the time: made a 1st person shooter not so much "OMG MOVING STUFF KEEL EEET".
Regardless, if you're not so much into gaming for graphics, but in gaming for storylines and other aspects you should really pick this game up. The 2nd one is not so great (as already stated), but it's alright.

I never played this game. How does it hold up today? I have my doubts...

The original Deus Ex's graphics are laughable now, but the gameplay and story are just as good as they were on release day.

I saw this great deal last night and couldn't pass it up... especially since I've never played Deus Ex and have meaning to forever now.

I tried to play Deus-ex 1 but it was quite dated by the time I got to it. Deus ex 2 I played through twice. Its not perfect and has warts (like it doesn't have a proper ending it was unfinished) but it captured my imagination at the time. Deus ex looks hot and I cannot wait!
