Forums / Discussion / Meme Research

Just wanted to start compiling some media related to the new Deus Ex game. I've been seeing some funny videos being passed around, and it looks like the catchphrase "I never asked for this" has gained some steam. Plz add to the thread if you find some good images/video.

If this gets enough viral spread (More so then any other high profile video-game) then let's make a subculture entry.

Then i believe the entry shouldn't be about the game as a whole gentlemen, however there seems to be some stuff other than the "I didn't ask for this" thing…

also

I believe there are multiple catchphrases from the game like "You'll never find X!" to which Jensen's reply would be "I 'll never stop looking".

I don't know if it's meme worthy but I guess I can clean up the article a bit.

Well it appears they know about the internet.

Was the "#chan" hat guy a hacker or something?

I know that Deus Ex has a lot of references in-game to popular memes and subcultures. I don't know an exact list of all the stuff and easter eggs that can be found.

The Look of Disapproval that Sweatie showed is a popular example. Another popular one is a Final Fantasy XXVII (27) poster that can be found.

Considering Square Enix did work on it, that doesn't surprise me.

In case you can't get it, Robocop.
