Minor things I can't forget about Deus Ex :-)


Here are some tiny details I never forget about Deus Ex, and I normally have a bad memory...

- The code for Alex's storage locker is "2001". I remember this as 2001 is one of the years I played Deus Ex in.
- jcd/bionicman. 'nuff said.
- nsf001/smashthestate, code for the NSF terminals on the first map.

0451 will always be remembered.

"0001, stupid, stupid, stupid code!"

reply

Oh yeah, now that you mentioned, is 0451 a System Shock reference?

I think one of the door codes was 007? Couldn't find the code anywhere in the game so started trying codes like 666, 069, and so on... I think 666 might have been the code for on of the door as well.

reply

no, it's a fahrenheit 451 reference.

baby can you dig your man?

Are you sure you pressed the right button?

GUNTHER HERMANN
I do not make mistakes of that kind.

ANNA NAVARRE
Your hand might have slipped.

GUNTHER HERMANN
No. I wanted orange. It gave me lemon-lime.

ANNA NAVARRE
The machine would not make a mistake...

GUNTHER HERMANN
It's the maintenance man. He knows I like orange.

ANNA NAVARRE
So you think the staff has some kind of plot...

GUNTHER HERMANN
Yes. They do it on purpose.

=D =D
And ofcourse the returning of this joke in DX: IW, where the two bums talk about the vendor machine. =D

Cmon, we have more memories than this. I have a memory OF the game, I shot a rocket and a pigeon flew in front of me at the last split second, and the splash killed me. I still have the screenshot, I think.

But I'll always remember the music. Like the clubs, and the action music.

The one-liner that my friend and I always use among ourselves when one of us does something unexpected or stupid:

"Jesus Christ, Denton"

reply

The cheesy, 80's scifi music that gets stuck in your head and adds a curious atmosphere to the entire game.

reply

I loved the bit just before you leave Paris and your pilot discovers that the suspicious mechanic planted a bomb in the chopper.

Jock: "Oh my god JC, it's a bomb!"
JC: "...A BOMB?!"

LOL! For some reason I was laughing my ass off after hearing JC yell "A BOMB!!" in his raspy voice, hahaha!! Did anyone else find that hilarious?

reply

How JC says "Sure" when he mets the Australian girl at the Lucky Money.

reply

The code to get into the police station in Hong Kong: 911

It's so obvious!

reply

NSF Commander: You cant fight ideas with bullets!

JC: My vision is augmented.

UNATCO female secretary (JC wonders into ladys room): How unproffesional.

Versalife worker (in a cold voice): Hundley... kill him.

Helios: You will be who you will be.

Page (Area 51 about to explode): NOOOOOO!!!!

JC: General Carter...
Carter: We've been through that soldier, just call me Carter.

Jaime: ...it was supposed to be a welcome-aboard present.
JC: Guess it'll have to be a retirment gift.

Drug Dealer: Bitch I ain't goin' back to jail!

& Some of those funny hidden quotes (not accurate):

(note that all this is spoken by men)

"I'm not afraid of your paper balls!"

"You'd think that playing DnD all night with guys who smell like salamy would make you hungry, but it dont."

1: Women ain't funny.
2: Yeah, men have to be funny to score.
1: I think you're funny.
3: Uh, guys you scare me.
1: Why? We dont think you're funny...

"And now I'll go home and play with my joystick."

"I want that military guy!"

"I've got both legs blown off but I dont see any difference."

"JC is like a girl in the bar: wants to believe all the lies."

"World domination is imminent."

Where did you find these quotes? How were they hidden?

reply

1. In file "user.ini" add line "t=talk".
2. In game press "t". Delete the word "Say" and input "Set DeusEx.JCDentonMale bCheatsEnabled True". Press enter.
3. Again press "t" and delete "Say" but this time input "legend". A secret menu will pop up. Press the hidden quotes button.

And there you go. Hidden quotes of game developers will roll on screen credits-style with a hidden music track and DX logos jumping in the back. If you cant read fast enough press space to pause.

Excellent, I was planning on installing the game again, I will check!

reply

Ha! That's how I say "Sure" anytime someone thanks me for something I did.

I'm just waiting to see if someone says "Hey! JC Denton!"

All these years and no one has so far.

reply

Confronting Walton Simons at Area 51:-

Simons: You keep running, but I'm always there with you - like your reflection in a mirror.
JC: That makes me one ugly sonuvabitch.

Oh man, I laughed at that throughout the rest of the game.

Absolutely. It's just so out of character for the ever-cool JC, it's got to be a joke on the developers' part, parodying the repeated shouts of "a bomb!?" in movies after someone says it. Golden.

Oh, and the Dragon's Tooth Sword is the greatest weapon in the game. Seriously. Run in with regeneration on, and you're set.

one thing i've never forgotten about Deus Ex is that bunker code 0451 which is also supposedly a reference to Raymond Bradburys book Fahrenheit 451

On of the finishin' lines in DX: "If God Didnt Exict, It Would Be Necessary To Invent Him." or somethin' like that.
Deep and true to the storyline...

To be honest i can remember more stuff from the game that i probably should.
Addictive but so marvelous...
