What's the gameplay time value of Deus Ex?
I know it's a legendary game, but I buy too many games without finishing them. I have limited free gaming time, and so will buy Deus Ex if I can bash it out reasonably quickly.


On an off side note, is it pronounced "Djoose" or "Day-us"? I pronounced it the former, but I heard Yahtzee pronounce it the second way in a recent Zero Punctuation.

Day-us

My memories of it are I played the first level, then got halfway in to the second... restarted and completely explored the first level, got through it, restarted, completed the first level 100%.

I don't know why, but although I only completed the first level (getting every weap, killing every enemy, exploring every corner) I still think it's a great game. I am looking forward to playing the rest.

My point is it's not a game you're going to want to bash out.

It's probably one of the longest single player games out there that doesn't rely on grinding. You won't be bashing it out very quick if it's your first time.

If this has taught me anything, it's that the good games or publisher packs will be on special, again and again :P

Going to grab tropico 3: absolute power expansion for 66% off! yay!

It's hard to see when they've disabled the view all games view :/

I did see Indigo prophecy for $3.49, Opflash 2 for $10, Trine for $4, ARMA1 for $6, basically every game you can find has a good discount.

COD pack is $29, has all CODs apart from MW2 (because that wouldnt be milking it if they included it) which is funny because COD5 by itself isn't discounted and is still $39.95

I'm going to have a good look through lunch, then probably head to the bank to get a small loan.
