Giveaway: Deus Ex - Human Revolution

So here we go again, another Giveaway of another great game. The last went well IMO so let's keep things rolling!



Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Standard Edition

To enter: Post below that you would like to receive this game for free (bonus chance: since this is a futuristic "sci-fi-ish" game, post your favorite future sci-fi movie and a reason why it's your favorite). All who do will then be entered into a random drawing. Last chance to enter is June 21 @11:59pm est, and the winner will be announced on June 22, 2012.

Requirements: TPU join date of April 2012 or earlier, and post count of 30. Please do not enter if you already own the game, as the winner must verify that they don't already own it. I will send a friend invite via Steam to the winner, as well as the Steam key.

Let's begin the fun, shall we?!

Previous Winners


Edit: I didn't think of it before, but I would like to give an acknowledgement to theonedub and his generosity. Quite honestly, his awesomeness with his past giveaways was a driving influence for me. We all at TPU appreciate the giving spirit that you have shown, and thank you for it.

Wasn't Stargate Sg1 the show and the movie being Stargte with Kurt Russell and James Spader? Am I thinking correctly? Either way it works

You are right, but the movie still came first. The show had many of the same actors. Was amazing for 10 years, then.... a few bad seasons and two run offs. They have their fans but not me.

Yeah, I liked the movie, decent film. Considering it was written and directed by Roland Emmerich, that's really something. Since then, he has just wanted to destroy the world in every possible way imaginable.

I saw Event Horizon years ago, don't remember it at all. I was reading reviews of it the other night on imdb and they were surprisingly good, for a Paul WS Anderson movie, that is. So I need it give it another go ASAP. Thanks Dub!

I liked Prometheus. Obviously different than its unofficial preceding sequel, and despite the unanswered questions, I enjoyed the fil, visually beautiful.

Event Horizon for the glimpse into hell scene. It was one of those "WTF" moments you don't get in a lot of movies. Pure Sci-Fi classic. Aliens would be my second choice. GAME OVER MAN!

OK, I was going to say Blade Runner but changed my mind to "The Abyss", I even own the DVD. It's so different (and under the ocean, not space), and more grounded than most Sci-fi movies. Great effects for it's time, and a bad guy get's imploded at 15,000 ft under the depths.

I do not own this game and just finished Crysis... need something new.
