It's also quite difficult to demo anything in a deus ex-based game unless you set the difficulty real low or turn godmode on.

Sniping, sneaking, blowing things up... Not ALL of Deus Ex is sitting still, waiting for your aiming cursor to zoom in so your can headshot an unaware guard. :P
The part where he set some guards on fire with a molotov was cool.
Also the already mentioned mecha-greasel.

Somehow "watch as I fling this grenade at unsuspecting guards and then hide just in case some of them can jump from state('avoidingprojectiles') to state('Attacking') quicker than the grenade fuselength" just isn't terribly dynamic. :P

Also, what part of sniping ISN'T sitting waiting for your cursor to tighten up on the head of an unsuspecting guard?

But yeah, molotovs are mighty handy.

The part where you pull the trigger and the poor bastard falls over with that really rigid death animation.

I was thinking more along lines of "when it's an unsuspecting civilian" :D

....and thought about putting "unsuspecting cat", but figured the other thread was bad enough.

Obviously you just cheat to max rifle before recording it. :v
Simple footage of, say, using a sniper rifle to shoot an exploding barrel and blowing up a crowd of bad guys would be effective.

Like I said, our launch trailer will be substantially better.
