Line 35:
* [[Hype Aversion]]: Being hailed one of the best PC games ever for over ten years straight no doubt puts some people off from it. The fact that aspects of it, such as the graphics, may come off as dated to modern gamers doesn't help.
* [[It Was His Sled]]: JC gets betrayed by UNATCO.
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Gunther. Sure, he’s a bloodthirsty killing machine with close to 1000 hits under his belt, but you can’t help but pity him. A diary entry from a random MJ12 trooper mentions that he thinks he hears him crying at night.
* [[Les Yay]]: There's a pair of women in the Lucky Money Club who are quite clearly into each other.
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Page has much of the world, including the player character, playing into his hands. Only a handful of people know the truth about him.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: Some of the more memorable [[So Bad It's Good|lines]] from the game. Remember, a bomb ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG1qKzIsisU A Bomb!]) is a bad choice for close range combat, and his vision ''is'' augmented. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DAPXMZk2iw What a shame...] Any mention of the game on [[Image Boards|/v/]] will get a "Time to reinstall it" response.
** Demanding a "skul gun" is also popular among fans, originating from a line Gunther says when he retreats from battle.
** On the fan content side, there's the infamous [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vxi7JRJrod4 Deus Ex: The Recut].

* [[Most Annoying Sound]]: The Dragon's Tooth sword makes a horrifically annoying metallic clang when it hits anything. Considering it's easily the most powerful melee weapon in the game, and when the player picks melee/strength skills it can one-shot pretty much anyone, the player has to make the decision to go insane from the sound, or make the game a lot harder.
