You can expect to be using the console to scan servers, ports, exploit those servers, download and upload critical information. You can also use graphical helpers for those functions, in the later stages of the game you will be in possession of the newly developed Pandora software which maps computer systems in a graphical manner allowing for more advanced hacks. Game features a news service sub-plot which has you influence the world on a global scale. You are running from the law and take refuge at a friend's cottage, lucky for you your friend is well connected in online grey area dealings. Coincidentally it seems that the reason you are on the run is also the reason that the UN has recently started pushing for a global identification system for all Internet users.
