Deus Ex

Short for Deus Ex Machina, or the literary term for an event or person coming out of the blue and doing something miraculous or unprecedented.

The game of the same name has your character, JC Denton coming from nowhere and changing the world drastically in a matter of days.

We worked as slaves to the terrible aliens for years, and then Eminem came over and detonated a nuke on the planet. Talk about Deus Ex!

Deus Ex'd

Much like Candlejack, the mere mention of Deus Ex will cause at least one person to re-install and play through this godly game. The victims of this action have been "Deus Ex'd."

Gamer 1: Man. This game is awesome. . . like, Deus Ex awesome.

Gamer 2: Fuck you guy, now I have to play Deus Ex again.

Gamer 3: Ha ha, you've been Deus Ex'd.

deus ex slot machina

A literary device used primarily in film in which the protagonists' seemingly impossible dilemma is solved through an unexpected and improbable gambling windfall, such as winning the jackpot.

Moviegoer 1: Couldn't they have thought of a better way for them to pay him back than just winning $80,000 in blackjack?

Moviegoer 2: Yeah, the writers pulled a total deus ex slot machina...

Deus Ex Machina

Literally "God from the machine", Deus Ex Machina originally referred to Greek plays, where the "gods" would be lowered onto the stage in order to provide a quick resolution to the story. Today, Deus Ex Machina refers to any improbably and/or overly convenient character or mechanism that comes out of nowhere saves the character(s) from their doom.

For a hilarious send-up of Deus Ex Machina, check out the spaceship scene in Monty Python's Life of Brian.
