In the future all restaurants will be Taco Bell, and all voices will be Nolan North. Yes, even yours.

I'm still really disappointed with the explosions. They based so much of this game around them, but did a horrible job.

For a trailer (which is supposedly to show a game at it's best) there are some seriously shoddy graphics/textures in this game.
 
What you'd generally find acceptable in an open world or destructive game (e.g. Red Faction 3), but not in a action shooter.

Oh christ sake Nolan North again. The dude is going to be in everything. In fact, I can see it now Mass Effect 3 male Commander Shepard wilo be voiced by Nolan North, while female Commander Shepard will be voiced by Nolan North pretending to be a woman. The guy is good, really good in fact but for crying out load can these developers not just go to all those out of work actors and see if one has the voice they want and not just say "Fuck it lets just hire Nathan Drake"

They really need to hire a better particle effects guy, the explosions look really lame. But the game looks more and more interesting, I'm getting a Bad Company (first one) vibe from the story.

EA is obviously going for the Modern Warfare 2 launch trailer vibe here with the rap music.
 
But I will give the game some credit for its LL Cool J use.

The action scenes look last generation, but the people are highly detailed. Why wouldn't they spend more time on the action to look better and the people to look not as good?

What Gamecube-era engine is this game running on?!  
 
Whoever cut this trailer made a bad decision of focusing on the city-destruction footage because it is horrific.

When stuff breaks it doesn't look so hot. The city destruction, for example, but also the pilar that the bus slides through. I mean, it almost looks like PS1-era stuff. The character models and textures look good. though. What's going on with this game?

Played the CoOp demo and I was bored to hell.  The shooting is terrible, the cover barely works, and it just looks bad graphicaly.

Honestly, in a trailer, you can't sell your games story. You need to sell bad ass graphics and BIG ASS EXPLOSIONS. Those will make people think its good, then when they purchase, hopefully it actually is good and it turns out...good. But these buildings blowing up looked ridiculous, the pieces were just squarey polygons, the faces looked roughly designed, not fleshed out. Overall, this trailer was uneffective. But also, theres SOOO MUCH BIG ASS EXPLOSIONS. I might just have to rent.

I'm calling it: 2010 is the year that Nolan North's voice acting talent will be sadly overused.

the graphics in this trailer look suprisingly awful. I felt the same way about Assassin's Creed II. I haven't compared them side by side yet, but what is up with sequels looking worse than the original?

I know it's but a trailer, but i get more and more interested in this title. 
As some stated before, the destruction of the buildings don't look at all superb. 
Even my deficient -7 eyes can see that. 
It save to say that's not going to be rectified with an easy patch. 
I'm willing to overlook that flaw, if the game furthermore has a good story and gameplay.

I enjoyed the first game, but I bought it well after it came out for £15, don't think I'd have paid anymore than that.  This one looks pretty good in places too, but the demo didn't really impress me, infact a bug stopped me from being able to finish it. 
 
Decent fun on co-op, but I'm waiting for a price drop.
