This is old but the one they showed last night was just as cool. I'm pretty interested in this game, I'll probably pick it up.

I thought I had seen that particular trailer before. Turns out I wasn't wrong.

The trailer you are looking for is the one Milkdad posted.

The original game was one of the best story driven games I've played. I can't wait till this one comes out.
