It's an incredibly deep game with genuinely different main character choices. The atmosphere does get disturbing at times, and can indeed be frightening. It's ostensibly science fiction, but is very psychological. It deserves all the fulsome praise it has garnered over the years, and is even better with the Rebirth mod added in.

I remember liking the demo from what I recall. I quit Outlast after 5 minutes of ominous creepyness (It came in a bundle that's the only reason I even tried it)

System Shock 2 isn't entirely invested in scaring you, like a horror game is. Rather, it's the anxiousness of survival that comes with any FPS game. But the environment is quite eerie, with the enemies that talk to themselves and the sensor ghosts. So you may end up jumping at times, but as I say, that's not the raison d'etre of the game as a whole.

I've found myself scared of CoD due to not knowing where the attacks are coming from and running out of ammo... LOL

I've found myself cowering in fear in SS2 at times when a butler robot or midwife has me cornered and I don't have a decent weapon ready. The immanent sense of death is all too palpable. :)

Well I'd imagine in real life war is a hell of a lot scarier then spending the night in a "haunted" house.

madth3: 1. I have a fake twitter account that I use as a reader of notifications (not unlike RSS feeds). Most of the sites twit new bundles and deals.
2. Steamgifts had the good idea of highlighting the recent / active threads in their forums and I have caught a deal or freebie there too.
3. In rare ocassions I do remember to check a site which I have not seen in days.
Thanks again for your effort man ;)

greenmangaming.com has a special offer for all the Deus Ex games.

Deus Ex: GotY (75% off) at 1,74€
Deus Ex: Invisible War (75% off) at 1,74€
Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut (75% off) at 4,99€
Deus Ex: The Fall (75% off) at 2,49€

Note that you can get all of the above in Deus Ex Collection (75%) at 8,24€
(which is cheaper than buying them one by one for 10,96€)

Another one is Deus Ex: Human Revolution – The Missing Link (75% off) at 1,74€ but if you get the Director's cut version it's already included in there. (and fits better the scenario in my opinion)


edit: There is also a voucher on gmg's frontpage which gives an extra 23% off : 23PERC-ENTOFF-48HOUR
They say it's valid for 48 hours and works on pretty much any game.
