2.5€ for this atm.

We can get a general discussion forum for 2.5€?!  Sweet! :P  Either got that glitch or posted in the wrong forum - which game is it?

It's Deus Ex.  $2.50.  I still have never played this game.  Guess I'll finally buy it.

Oh man, Trine is $5.

Is Trine a good game?  I haven't heard much about it.  Watching the gameplay videos online it looks pretty cool.

I'm glad the General Discussion bug struck, because I would have never have heard about this otherwise.

Man... what a deal! I got both. 3 quid was too tempting to turn down.

That was weird O_o
 
Deus Ex was the game anyways.. if you missed that because of ze bug.

lol I bought it two weeks ago.

I was just thinking a day or two ago that if Deus Ex ever went down to $2 on Steam, I'd buy it. 
 
 
Close enough, I guess. I played the sequel a bit and enjoyed the setting, and everyone seems to think the original is better, so I guess I'm buying it!

Thanks for the tip! I lost my original Deus Ex disc a few years ago and have never played Invisible War, so I'm going to buy this collection right away.

Fucking hell, yesterday I write a blog about how tempting these steam sales can be, then Trine and Deus EX drop to silly prices.

They should do a Deus Ex Retro Quick Look. 

Bought a few copies for friends who havn't had the joy yet.  Love this game, love these steam sales.

The game crashes on startup... Great.
 
I'm running Windows 7 and can't run steam in compatibility mode (steam will literally not let me). I'm running it as admin, but that's not helping. Also, every time the game crashes, I recheck the integrity of the cache and it always has me re-download two files. It still never works. I'll try some other stuff, I guess.

Been waiting for a great deal on this...

hmmmm

i was thinking about getting Deus Ex and i was happy to see it go on sale

I've been meaning to get back into Deus Ex for some time now. I have the original on PS2 still...but it just isn't the same. I couldn't pass this deal up and bought both. Haven't played Invisible War since it came out, so I'll give it another chance.

Does anyone also recommend getting both games? I heard the sequel isn't as good, I don't want to just buy every trash out there. By trash I mean the sequel is like in the low 80% gamerankings compared to the first game which is over 90%.  
 
Will I care about the story of the second game? I don't know, I missed out on this game before.

I already had the first game, but I bought Invisible War today.  Damn game keeps crashing my computer about every 30 minutes though, which is a shame because otherwise the game is pretty good so far.

Seriously, just get both. If you don't own the original, you have no excuse to at least pick up that one for $2.50. For the same price, whatever misgivings you may have with Invisible War won't matter much. Just make sure you turn off autoaim.

I want to play through Deus Ex and its sequel in anticipation for the new game coming out, but I was wondering if it is easy to mod games on Steam as there are high definition texture mods and such available to make it easier to get back into.

I have had no luck getting the HD texture pack to work with my Steam copy (my CD copy is oooold so I like to have a backup.) People on the Steam boards for the game seem to have it working. I'll try again in a few days. 
 
I do, however, have the 3-in-1 community texture pack for Invisible War working perfectly on the Steam install. It doesn't really update the game (ala Stalker Complete 2009) but it makes everything a lot sharper.

God I loved Deus Ex.  I remember playing the same situation over and over again and trying out different ways to complete the mission each time.  Do I go in through the ceiling, Do I go through a vent, hack a computer, or .... 
 
I only wish I knew where it was in my parent's house.  I'm sure my piece of crap laptop can play it.
