After playing the game, I feel this DLC should have been called The Missing Content.

1200 points for 5 hours of gameplay? Cheaper than Call of Duty's singleplayer campaign

Seriously though it sounds more extensive than Mass Effect 2's Lair of the Shadowbroker add-on though a bit more pricey than Bioshock 2's brilliant Minerva's Den. I'll probably wait til it drops in price in a month or two like Deus Ex itself, but I will pick it up at some point.

Nope, you've priced yourself right into the "Wait for it to be in Deal Of The Week" territory.

"1200 points for 5 hours of gameplay? Cheaper than Call of Duty's singleplayer campaign "

Publishers' claim of 5 hours translates into 2 hours of actual game play.

Playing Deus Ex at the moment and I'm enjoying it alot but 1200 points seems excessive to me, think I'll wait for the sale in a month or two. Batmans out soon so plenty to be getting on with.

Was really looking forward to some more action with Mr. Jensen, but this is WAY too expensive for DLC. How do they honestly justify that price for 5 hours of content? I think for now, I'll just finish getting my platinum trophy for Deus Ex and then get stuck in to Dark Souls, getting the DLC when it inevitably drops in price.

Way too expensive. The game itself was only Ł25 pre-ordered! I'll get it for cheap in a steam sale in the future sometime maybe.

thats a lot for DLC, it had better be at least half the game time that the original was

and to stop the downvotes and trolls shouting back, that was sarcasm

If this were any other game i'd skip it. However, not only was this my game of the year, but the original single player game was such good value I don't mind giving the devs a little more on top.

I'll wait for the feedback before deciding. Still playing the game and loving it. Faithful to the original.

What I would do for Deus Ex in the vain of the Elder Scrolls.

A bit on the dear side. I was ok with 800 but for 1200 my expeations for the length of this would be higher. I'll wait a bit and see how people will like this.

I got the game AND 800 MS Points for Ł29.99 in a deal they ran in Argos... or in other words, the game for Ł22.

I'm not paying half the price of the entire game for one extra fucking level.

The game itself is very low price right now for it's length, what does this include for that much? I thought it was another 20 minute mission... though estimates are longer I dont quite trust them.

I'm pretty sure 1200 points is more than Ł8.99, unless you order a cheap prepaid card.

Knowing that 400 points is $5, $5 is currently Ł3.17, so Ł3.17 (400) times three (1200) makes Ł9.51.

Ah, but I've forgotten that we gets charged more for the points anyway. So it's likely to actually be over a tenner.

15 quid?!!!???????!!!!!! GTFO

I'm quite offended by this. I'll wait for the inevitable price drop, thanks.

Eurogamer: Please give us an idea how long it plays / if it's worth the price in the review please. (!!!) I'm thinking not.

@Somantic- You can get 2100 for Ł15 from Amazon/ Play. It works out a lot cheaper than buying them from the dashboard.

I really enjoyed Deus Ex but the main game was plenty long enough for me. I often find that I don't really enjoy DLC for story-based games as it feels too separate from the main game

Ł1.80 per hour seems very expensive, fuck me its almost half of what I payed for the original game. Anyone that buys it at that price has moron written all over them ...

Finished the game and enjoyed it but at that price I won't be getting the dlc. Considering the full game is around 17 quid everywhere!

@andytheadequate

Like I said, excluding retailer offers. EG shouldn't be basing it on theoretical offers.

The actual MS points value of 1200 - therefore the effective 'RRP' of the DLC - is far more than Ł8.99.

Hmm think I'll wait to see how long the average play through time is.
That's a lot of money.

1200 MP is Ł10.80 isn't it as Microsoft's rates? PC version looks to be better value then at just under Ł9 and that's the version I want anyway. Dunno that I'll be buying it straight away though as I have too many other games on the go at the moment and I still need to complete the main campaign (I'm not far off though).

I agree andy - I have never really enjoyed SP DLC because I'm so aware of it being that much shorter than the rest of the game, and feeling too distinct.
