Deus Ex Dark Age Ending

Requirements: Cut the coolant flow to the antimatter reactors, disable the failsafe mechanisms, and activate them to initiate a meltdown event.
Cutscene: Area 51 is destroyed by the massive blasts, cutting world communication networks and destroying both Bob Page and Helios. This thrusts the world into a technological blackout, but also frees it from media control by the Illuminati.

Requirements: Neutralize the four blue fusion reactors and trigger the Infusion Control Switch.
