I can't stand games where you have to constantly micromanage the inventory

Seriously, what they showed in this demo is not worth the trouble of making a demo video. There's nothing revolutionary, or even particularly interesting going on here. Sure it's adds to the gameplay, but it isn't something that another company can't add to their engine if they so choose.
Other useful combos:
• Use empty bottles for extra ammo storage or add some gasoline to the mix to make a bomb.
• Add fuel to an ammo box to create flaming bullets.
• Combine healing spray and a lighter to make a flamethrower.
One other thing that I read in the article that I thought was cool:
"Cars are more than a way to get around. You'll be able to jump in the back seat to shoot pursuants or even puncture the gas tank and light the trail on fire to create a rolling bomb."
I've always loved games with creative puzzles. I only wish they would include co-op...

In-ven-tory, say it with me now. Inventory.
AitD4 was on of the biggest gaming disappointments for me ever. Such a let down.
This actually looks pretty neat - so far. Hopefully it's creepy.

It's neat, but it's still a pre-programmed mechanic.
