I love the ps2 version of Deus Ex -_-

Thespian*: BUMP!

P1na: ... tomorrow I'll be spending the night on an airport so I'll have plenty of time to spare...
avatar
Thespian*: Are you on the airport already, mate? Not too bored, I hope. ;)
Nope, not yet. Only 2:45 at the moment. The fun doesn't start till 6pm.

You see, my bus to the airport leaves at 7, but I have a 45 minute walk to get to the station so I leave home at 6. It takes about 3,5 hours to get to the airport in Dublin, where I'll stay till my plane leaves after 6 in the morning. Yay! In fact, I could have taken another bus at 1am, which would allow me to spend less time in the airport, but the walk at midnight sucks and there would be no public transport as alternative at the time (in the very likely case it rains; I enjoy walking but not getting drenched).

And that's not the worst part. I mean, nights at airports are never that fun, but I'm used to them and the airport in Dublin has both plenty of sockets and free wifi. The problem is that I get to Madrid at 10am, and there's no bus heading to the Basque Country till 4. Well, technically there are others, but they are double the price and I spent that money on the giveaway. So I'll have to wander around Madrid for hours until I get to my bus, which takes 4 and a half hours to reach my hometown.

I love my life sometimes.

No really, it is pretty fun.

P1na:
Too bad, mate. :(

I hate waiting, queues, and all the related stuff. I prefer to walk an hour to get to a place instead of wait 10-15 minutes at the bus stop...

So, you've my condolences. ;)

P1na: I just realized I didn't set any deadline for this. Since I'm heading back home on Tuesday night, I'll set it on Tuesday 3GMT (when the GOG offer changes). At that point I'll choose the winners on a completely arbitrary manner.
So who's the winner? Is it 3GMT already? I live in the US, east coast, so I have to do some time calculations. :)

Big shout out to P1na, whether I win or not this is something very nice your doing! Best wishes and happy holiday's to all!

It's 5 already. Sorry, I forgot. But I'm leaving in an hour, preparing my backpack etc... so I'll have to postpone the winner selection a few hours, sorry. I'll do it in the bus (provided the wifi there works) or the airport.
I'm not participating since i own the game . But i don't own the sequel .

+ 1 rep for you .

Ok, I just picked the winners: Rodzaju and invenio

Yaaaay!!! *audience roars*

I'll send the codes through PMs shortly. I won't ask you to enjoy it (although I obviously hope you do), but I do ask you to play it. I'm close to minimun wage myself, so I can't gift it to everyone I would want to, but I'll leave one last copy open for trade in case somebody still wants just PM me. And I think I'll host another giveaway next time DX goes on sale, so look forward to that one.

And Thespian, I travel a lot so I'm kinda used to it. But shit happens, and seeing how it's turning out, I think I'll take Barcelona as a more interesting transfer point than Madrid next time. I just wish there were any flights to the south of France, at least.

Woo!
Thank you.
I'll let you know what I think....

Be careful of Barcelona.
I'm sure it's a lovely city, but it also has a bit of a reputation as the pickpocket capital of Europe!

I'm not going there today, but I've been several times. And yes, it does have some reputation on that matter, but the police's reputation is even worse. Yet I never had an issue there.

I work on a travel insurance emergency helpline.
I swear I get at least 1 call per day about someone who has had their wallet stolen in Barcelona!
Congrats to the winners, I wish I caught this a little sooner

QC: I've heard much about this title, along with more recent ones, and curiosity growing along with titles like Dragon Age, Witcher 2 helping me along to open branch games. So I would like to try this game if you would give me the chance.

As for why I could not afford it, I received a surprise internet bill for the set-up at my apartment and ended up with a bill of roughly $100. At the moment I've no choice to be thrifty thanks to my lack of income (I'm currently planning to try and sell plasmid if I can find a place to do so in the city I go to school, otherwise I've little other venue to turn to until I return to school.)
Too late, sorry.

AWESOME!!!! I can't believe I actually won something! P1na, thanks for running this holiday giveaway. I think this shows true Christmas spirit. This one is going right to the top of my playlist! I just have to finish Spacechem (,probably the best puzzle game I have every played, everybody check it out) which is ridiculously hard.

Once again, a big thank you to P1na. Your last name wouldn't be Kringle, would it?

Happy Holidays!
Just thought I'd say thank you again.
I'm having a blast!.

I haven't got very far yet (just about to enter the statue of liberty).
I've spent hours studying the bad guys patrol routes so that I can sneak up on them without them randomly turning round on me or bumping into someone coming round a corner, or...
So far I've taken out all the bad guys the same way.
Crawling up behind them & shoving my cattle prod up their a$$.
(for those that don't know, If you are crouched, the highest on the bad guy you can reach is... Yes, you guessed it!!!)
I'm still not sure which is funnier, them just flopping down unconscious, or then standing on tip toes trembling.....
Only downside is that my prod is now out of ammo.
I guess I'm gonna have to hide until I can find some more.

Just 3 questions:
How easy is it to find prod batteries?
Is it viable to kill every bad guy in the game like this?
Is there a time limit on the missions?
