    Any idea if it runs on windows 7 64 bit? 
     
    Is it worth getting the combo for $5 or should i just go with the original?  I've never played either...but judging by my steam purchase record, even if i buy this i still never will.

    Just buy the first one. 
     
    There is plenty of support out there if you have trouble running it. There's even a special dx 10 renderer.

    They had this sale not too long ago... 
     
     
    Regardless, if you didn't buy it then, buy it now.  
     
    @Bobdaman18:
     I got it working with W7 64-bit, but it may take some "fixes." Or not. It's kind of random, I think.

    it does run on windows 7 64bit. For me it ran out of the box (so to speak) but some people have to tweak it a bit. 
     
    suffice to say 99% of people on win 7 64 can play it.

    Should I buy this? I have played like a couple of minutes of it, but that was a couple years ago. It is only $2.50, but I don't need another game that I won't finish.

    I actually missed Deux Ex. I guess I was busy with HL, RE and Diablo at the time.
     
    Now, to buy or not to buy? I have too many games sitting around already that I haven't had much time for, and I don't know if I should add even more to the list. I was trying to cure my sales addiction, but dammit this isn't helping.
     
    What do you guys think? The first Deus Ex, both or neither?

    Everyone buy the first Deus Ex, at least. 
     
     
    Once you get past the first mission, more than likely you'll be completely addicted, continuing to play to see the next piece of the conspiracy puzzle.

    How long would you say the games are? I already have to go through 4 RPGs that I haven't yet had the time for, not to mention the rest of the games I've bought but haven't played. It'd be great if the games were not too long.

    Yeah, it's a liitle over complicated. I'd just get the DX 10 rendere, and that dxfix thing to get widescrren hugh resolutions with an attractive hud.

    Going through Morrowind now and everyone said get mods. But I honestly feel like it takes away from the game to change it at all. And hell, i'm enjoying it a ton with its old graphics, which, imo, have aged BEAUTIFULLY, considering its 8 fucking years old.

    Never played Deus Ex, but how do you not buy what is considered one of the best games of all time? 
     
    Especially with Human Revolution around the corner, which looks great.

    I have a question, is it worth getting the pack? I heard invisible war is sometimes considered as crap and not real Deus Ex, but is there story continuation? Should I buy the game? Hell on steam it has an 80% rating. Guys?

    Are there are graphics mods? I've always wanted to play this game, but it's just so ugly.

    Does the game hold up today? I mean maybe it was good before, I still died again at the demo and I simply don't like it compared to all the games i've played today.

     
    I'm sure there are ppl in this thread who thinks it's the best game ever, I am not seeing that at all.  
     
    If I use a graphics mod, will I be able to use 1080p? so far I can only select X1050. Also I hope the graphical mod will improve the animation, it's the worst looking animation i've ever seen in a game before. Maybe I should buy a copy of the game and not play it until way later. Then again I might be wasting my money considering I didn't enjoy the demo.

    It does continue the story in some sort-of interesting ways by the end, but just about everything about it, from characters to story presentation to level design to combat is a pretty serious step down, making it kinda hard to recommend. Basically just concentrate on the first one, then if you're really jonesing to see where the story goes, buy #2.

    Okay EVERYONE SHOULD BE USING THIS:  http://kentie.net/article/dxguide/ 
     
    The extras are extras, of course, but getting the resolution and gui good and proper on your probably-widescreen monitor is important.

    Yes, keep this posted so that those whov'e never played the game or want it back can get it. Hopefully it will be a primer for the 2nd game. Rather oudated visual.. Weapons can suck. Still a King among Video games. I know this comes off beatan to bloody death and I do apologize, but oh my for  this kind of attention for SystemShock 2. It will probably never occur, and younger gamers will never experience one of the best Top Tier Evile Bosses ever  virtually created, Shodan. When Shodan finally announces herself in-game, and howshe does it,  I knew it was genious.

    Went ahead and bought this since I never played Deus Ex. Not sure if I'll ever get around to playing it but it's there at least.

    Ah fuck it, i'm just going to buy it so it's there, not sure if I even want to play it, however it's there at least even if I hate the demo. I'm right on the fence, however almost going to buy it, I have a few hours to decide at least. It's 50/50.

    Word of advice to people jumping into Deus Ex for the first time: Swimming is fucking useless don't put anything into it.
