Using aug combos becomes increasingly vital as your situation evolves. Sucks a lot of energy, though. Thisdale cuts both augs the second he's indoors. The mercs have a combat robot, so Jensen spares some energy to use his X-ray vision, finding enemies through walls and marking them for later disposal. It's very close to Batman: Arkham Asylum's Detective mode, but given how much energy it sucks up, you won't leave it on for the entire game.
As is, it drains Jensen's reserves dry, so enough sneaking. Time to thin the herd. The fourth active aug, the Typhoon System (which turns you into a six-foot claymore mine) isn't available in this demo, but we've picked up a few other toys, and they've all got interchangeable parts to tune the combat to suit your personal handicaps. Thisdale opens the inventory -- picture Resident Evil 4's "you fit it, you keep it" system -- selects a whisper-quiet air rifle and adds a target-leading attachment we bought off the street earlier.
Yep. The guns have augs, too.
