I'm so glad they got rid of the pdf guides. The format was always so disappointing, and somehow the guides were less helpful that their html counterparts.
Deus Ex Human Revolution Walkthrough

Take the helm as Adam Jensen and uncover the conspiracy. Our Deus Ex Human Revolution Walkthrough provides a full walkthrough, sidequests, and info on augmentations.
Sarif Manufacturing
Terrorists have attacked Sarif Manufacturing and are holding hostages. Your main objective is to stop the criminals, while saving the innocent is secondary. David Sarif will ask what type of weapon you will want for the mission: a stun gun, assault rifle, or handgun. You should decide now if you wish to sneak or go in guns blazing. Note that the pistol can be easily found during this mission, so consider choosing a different firearm.
The first area of the facility is crawling with at least five enemies with handguns. Use take downs to deal with at least two of them before sneaking by or killing the rest. There is a broke passage to the left that will allow you to easily crawl passed this first wave of enemies. However, if you feel more daring, explore the area to grab extra ammo and loot the dead or sleeping bodies of any downed foe.
The next room has another four enemies inside, as well as a concussion grenade to stun cluster groups. Like before you can kill them all quickly or sneak by taking the ladder on the right. This ladder will place you on a second level and allow you to jump across the storage platforms. This will soon take you into a locker room with more ammo and beer. Drinking booze will increase your life meter, but will blur the screen for a few seconds. Avoid drinking during a fight or you'll have a hard time aiming.
Keep following the objective marker and you'll come to a terminal that needs to be hacked. Even if you don't plan on being a career hacker, there are some level 1 computers that you must get by. Quickly open the first folder which will likely start the tracing alert; before the antivirus locks you out of the system, hack the backdoor to gain access to the system.
This room has four more enemies. Either take the quick route of killing them all from cover or sneak through the ducts above. However, killing one of the terrorists will drop a security code, allowing you to forgo some later hacking. If you want to take care of your secondary objective (saving the hostages) head up the next flight of stairs and into the next room. A gas bomb will start that will need to be quickly deactivated via hacking. If you fail this hack the hostages will die and you'll need to escape through the duct before the smog takes you out as well.
If you do manage to save everyone, talk to Greg Thorpe. He will ask you to save his wife Josie, though it's up to you if you want to make that promise. Either way, exit back out and follow the objective marker to the left. Your goal is the elevator to the next floor, though both guards and security cams can spot you easily. You can shoot out the cameras, though the noise might alert the guards that are patrolling the area. Regardless if you charge through or use stealth, take the elevator to the next floor.
On this floor is a heavy turret blocking the way. If you've leveled your hacking augmentations you can shut off this sentry. Otherwise, move the boxes on the right and sneak behind the turret. Enter the next room for a cutscene where you'll secure the Typhoon. Take the next elevator to the top floor when you're ready. There will be four more clustered enemies. You can sneak by them or use takedowns. Alternately, the majority of them are clustered and can be dispatched with a single grenade. Restock up on ammo and food and head into the main work area.
You can hack the various computers for a boat load of free experience. When you're satisfied with your bounty, Head up to the next level and confront Zeke Sanders. He has taken Josie hostage and it's your choice of how to deal with the situation. You can forcibly attack Sanders which will make him kill Thorpe in a few seconds; still you have enough time to take down Zeke and save the hostage. Alternately you can try to talk it out with the terrorist. Choose Empathize, Reason, and then Humble to calm down the terrorist leader.
Regardless of how the situation goes down, meet with Malik outside and head back to HQ. Head up to David's office and chat with the boss. Your main goal now is to head to the police station, however, you'll also have a sidquest inside your office.

"... have just searched Radford's locker after taking the Suits out with my silenced pistol. I have grabbed the pictures from the safe and interogated the computer there, as well as read the Ebook.
When I go to leave the lockup the game is telling me there's more photos to find in the lockup. I can't find anything else. Is this a glitch, or do I have to come back later or something?"
Never mind. I have solved it. There were five emails on the computer in the lockup. I had missed the last one that was off the bottom of the screen. Once I had read this the game updated and I'm now on my way again.
My thanks to Maf17. Using the Typhoon (plus the EMP protection upgrade) did the trick for me too. I think the EMP protection was the thing that did it for me though. She seemed impotent against this and I may well have been able to take my time and tickle her to death if I wanted to.
Anyway, now have just searched Radford's locker after taking the Suits out with my silenced pistol. I have grabbed the pictures from the safe and interogated the computer there, as well as read the Ebook.

I thought there was an Achievement where you let Doctor Isaias Sandoval commit suicide? I'm not sure if it was on the Xbox or PC version.
There was one other Question I have, as in the Banner Above where it says walk through, it shows Jensen wearing a helmet of sort, I think I saw in a preview trailer as well. Yet in game that is never an option, unless it was dropped from the game during development? Or could that be a hint for the next Deus Ex?

@Dremun If you have completed all the sidequests ie: Lesser Evils, Motherly Ties and Cloak and Daggers then just ignore the warning and board the helo/VTOL. If you have started these sidequests but have not finished, then they will be cancelled like it said when you continue to Hengsha. If you haven't started any of the sidequests, you can choose to stay in Detroit and complete them first before moving on to Hengsha, or you can just move onto Hengsha. The warning message will always appear before you move onto Hengsha no matter what.
Thank you for that Info, it is much appreciated, I hit delete on my post in error, and I just got on to the helo/Vtol and got no warning messages and the side quests that I had were showing up as completed when I looked at my quest logs. And I started my second play through on the hardest setting, it kinda seems like it's easier, but i will find out when I crash land in China on the second trip there :)
There's one more sidequest in Hengsha Part 2. To activate it you must talk to a doctor when you go to the LIMB clinic to change your chip.
Man, I don't now if its because i'm only look at the still photos here or something, but to me, the ps3 version of this game looks better then the 360 version iv been playing.
None of the bosses are hard if you choose weapons for tactics not for style. Also remember A.I is always stupid so they fall for anything and never learn. I chose to stock up on prox mines to begin with because I foresaw their potential. All you have to do is hug a wall and keep tossing the mines around the corners. First tactic I tried and since it worked so well I never attempted anything else. Flashbang to stun, gas to stun and damage and Explosive to damage. EMP are a waste on Bosses, but great for bots. I knocked out only few characters and only killed the bosses. It was so much easier just slip by everyone. I suppose you could go homocidal for fun but it doesn't seem necessary. Doing so just removes the ambieance and takes more time and inventory space for weapons. Played the game several times and haven't used most of the weapons beyond test firing, so I don't bother carrying anything other than the Tranq rifle, Tazer, revolver & shotgun.
1 Like Yelena is easy. Typhoon her at close range when she uncloaks in front of you, that damages her a lot, then she goes down with one blast of heavy rifle.
1 Like will somebody please tell me why this game DOESN'T HAVE NEW GAME PLUS!!??? damnit, i miss codebreaker and gameshark! :(
1 Like It`s a Bummer that the guides are NOT PDF files anymore. Gamepressure.com has free PDF guides for download that are very Beautiful as well.I like PDF files because they work GREAT with a Kindle device.A nice hand-held Guide device for your Lap.
1 Like I concur with other users. Why have the PDF guide stopped? It's nice to have the PDF guide itself. It's easier to find the info I need via a search, etc. Please bring them back.
1 Like I have been a Total Access subscriber for 9 years and 5 months...and I agree completely with ngadd the previous poster!!! One of the major reasons I joined was to get the .pdf files of your walkthroughs. How about continuing that policy or at least give us a good explination as to why it has been ended. That way I can come to a reasoned decision when renewall time comes around again.
1 Like Why isn't this guide (nor any other recent guide) downloadable any more ? Not even for longstanging Gamespot subscribers such as myself ? I've used loads of them over the years, and it's nice to have a printed copy to hand without having to go online all the time....
to become invisible, you need to invest in the cloak augmentation, then the d-pad button is in the upper right .i believe it is the down button.this is all for ps3. Also Yalena was cake walk. just run around the room and use the heavy rifle to shoot the computers to shock her then burn her down. No fuss, no muss.
The Yelena fight was pretty easy, toss a frag mine right in front of you as soon as the fight starts and move quickly to the left or right. The frag mine will stun her and then shoot away with a long range weapon and toss a couple more frag mines at her location. Takes about 10-20 seconds to kill her this way after stunning her with the first frag mine.
I got lucky with Yelena. Ended up finding a glitch. First I hit her with the stun gun then ran up to her and did the 'kill' takedown. She of course counters this bringing you close to death but because she is supposed to be stunned the game got confused and stuck her in place. I had a lot of fun shooting her in the head with my 10mm pistol knowing she couldn't do anything about it. About 10 shots later she died and I was on my way :P
Need extra cash? Put a police officer to sleep through takedowns or tranquilizer rifle, then pick up the weapon, go to the weapon store and sell it, repeat process...
Yelena was extremely easy. Just let her charge , then hit her with the stun gun and took out my handy dandy shot gun and let her have it. Did that 3 or 4 times and that was a wrap.
This is a pretty decent guide, however I think the jump ability is useless if you have heavy lifting as you can usually stack items to get to higher areas.
Hengsha 2 has at least 1 more sidequest, - Talion A.D. Given to you by a Dr. at the Limb Clinic, and consisting in finding the whereabouts of a former patient from the military that has gone awire, called Zelazny.
In case anyone wants an extra praxis, you can kill the barman downstairs in the hive and you'll find one on him when you search. I went on a mad killing spree and murdered everyone in the hive, went out the front door and the bouncer still wanted to charge me to get back in :-(
@rabksaj I didn't think I would like purely stealth based games so avoided Splinter Cell. But after playing as a stealth character on my second playthrough of DE:HR I thought I'd give the first SC a go and I liked it so much I've just bought the rest.
I don't understand people complains about the fact that if you play "stealth" it is hard to kill bosses. Not really. If you play "stealth"... well continue doing it during the boss fight da... That is how I took out Barret: After cutscene throw flash grenade. It will give you time to get to the stash with shotgun and EMP grenade. After flash effect passes he doesn't know where you are and most likely will move to the corner where you stand in the beginning. After that I waited until he turned facing wall, through EMP granade and the red barrel which is in the centre of the room. Then he dropped 3 grandees under his own feet. Another? EMP + 1-2 shotgun head shots and that was it. PS He never made a shot to my side...
Nothing beats the good old stealth games of splinter cell. you have real cool gadgets such as noise distracter. sticky diversion camera.etc etc.
"Version 1.2 has arrived. The Walkthrough is complete." No it isn't, even weeks after the game was released.
that boss strat for yelena is quite possibly the dumbest design I have seen in a game in years. Even with augs. So stupid. Not very clever at all.
The game guide is also missing one little side quest called Talion A.D. which you can get from a doctor by visiting the limb clinic in hengsha the second time.
@godiskingofall, Well I can't speak for later bosses yet, but you're right about how the first 2 pretty much went. I'm actually quite surprised how fast I took out that chick Yelena. She tagged me good the first couple of tries, but then I actually used the most ingenious weapon of all....I opened up a few cans of Typhoon whoop-ass on her w/ about dozen rounds or so off my Machine pistol (modded, of course) & that was a wrap. I actually just let her take herself out of hiding a then once she came running' up on me like a damn fool, I let have it, lol. Quick Tip: if you can go ahead and max out Typhoon before the fight do it--the more power the Typhoon blast the quicker you'll take her out. Damn people wasn't lying when they said her fight was actually breeze. I caught waaay more headbanging hell w/ Barrett....
GOTY. No doubt. Damn it, in that room when the hostages have been held, I just sneaked pass it since I had no more tranquilizer rounds, which I wasted on patrols in the facility entrance since I though they could actually move to other areas and complicate my objective further, but no, they were. Well. Patrolling THAT area, which I easily passed trough that ventilation duct. I could use some takedowns, yeah, but I would be easily spotted and I was trying to finalize the game withouth being spotted, alarming systems, or killing anyone a single time. Lots of achievments, huh? Yeah. I'm already in China and so far my tasks are going well. But now that I've seen that I could have saved the hostages and I wouldn't see the final hostage, which I save suceesfly, crying.
"The Seaport is the point of no return. Not only are you about to say bye to China, this is one of the last chances to purchase items, weapons, and praxis." This is not true - there is a Limb-clinic in Panchea...for us Praxis addicts :)
If you have the Grenade Launcher, all boss fights become easy. And save up for electrical resistance for the final boss fight!
lol i find deus ex boss fights ridiculously easy except for the first one. what i did for Yelena was dodge as much of her first attack as possible. after her first attack she cloaked to go charge. all i did was turn on smart vision , find her shoot her twice with my revolver (with explosive round add on) when she had her back to me then just when she's about to charge at me , shoot the power source thing ( i have max dermal armour ) causing her to freeze , then shoot her 2 or 3 times in the head done.
