Deus Ex is, definitely, on both counts. Dunno the other.

OK I'll play it then. Might as well give "Serious Sam" a bash as well.
Serious Sam? LOL What a daft name.

Serious Sam 2nd Encounter works on XP.
I think that Serious Sam 1 is better than the 2nd encounter, but they are both good.

Yes.

>And are they worth playing?

DE is stunning in terms of atmosphere, story and intelligent gameplay,
but may look a bit dated now. SS (1 or SE) are great for mindless fun
shooting.

Go with Serious Sam, hands down if you want a pure *fun* fps. What Brian
conveniently omitted to mention about DX is that you need a Glide card to
get the most out of it (actually looks shite w/o one), & given you're
talking about Windows XP, I'm 99.99% certain you're not running one. Plus I
played DX & thought it was ho-hum in every way. Now SS2 - trust the Cros to
know how to make a game about wholesale killin! >;-)

I honestly don't know where you come up with that from, it looked as
good on my GF1 as my V2 SLI at the time.

Probably. It costs about a pound. Just buy it and see.

I just installed Deus Ex in Windows XP. Seems to work fine.
