Surprised that no-one has mentioned this already:

Good price (which is very unlikely to be bettered any time soon) for a pretty good game.

its mentioned in the steam sales thread

Ah..Maybe I'll re-purchase it.

I pre-ordered it on steam but with the fiasco that happened with the missed release dates I cancelled. It was a good game from the 'demo' though.

Not in the near future, except maybe in a Steam Give and Get sale. But even then you are unlikely to save much....

Well here are the critics and user reviews:

Both are over 80% which is a good indicator of an enjoyable game...

great game, I loved it.

blueshift · 15 Dec 2010 at 14:31

Very good game , very challenging in places too.

reflux · 15 Dec 2010 at 14:33

It's well worth £5. Best looking game I've ever played. Could have done with a lot more polish but still fun to play.

Goldfingers · 15 Dec 2010 at 14:36

Very dodgy AI. But amazing graphics, and pretty fun gameplay. Worth a punt.

Nelson Santos · 15 Dec 2010 at 14:38

Got this an just cause 2 for a £10 cant complain!

didnt realise it was short, thought it would be another stalker style game in length...might actually buy it if i have a chance of completing it. i for one dont mind short games if the experience is great.

Its about 10 hours of game play.

Worth grabbing even with a 4870 and no immediate plans to upgrade (well, depending on what card Deus Ex 3 needs to look wonderful...)?
