When I saw the EA logo, I half expected to hear "MAXIMUM EA"
 
Edit:  Also, yeah.  That was a terrible trailer.  The music made me want to stop watching it and it was pretty cheesy.  But I still am quite hyped for this game.

So, one guy's going to stop an entire alien invasion because he's wearing hi tech bondage gear? Nice.

If I can run super speed up the side of a building, do a backflip, then air stomp and kill alien doods I will be satisfied.

Wait, why were there people fighting alongside the aliens?
 
 
Maybe the Koreans bro'd out with the aliens post Crysis 1 and Crysis 2 will be an alternate take on Homefront.

Game looks great but I'm not feeling the trailer. Plays better when muted.

What's with that song? Anyway I feel bad for the original Crysis since most people who have never played it think its just about the graphics. I'm playing through it right now and I'm having a blast the gameplay is awesome. Really looking forward to Crysis 2.

The first half of Crysis was great, the second half wasn't. Shame to see they are focusing Crysis 2 on the not-so-great part.

Looking real good to me, will pick up the pc version the day it comes out. All the game really needs to be is open to choice like what Crysis and Crysis: Warhead were, catering for both stealth and action fans. If they can do that throughout the whole single player campaign then Crysis 2 will be a success.

Isn't it more like a beta, though? I'm hoping that's not the final build because it doesn't feel right... When you press jump, he should jump and not half a second after. Kinda disappointed.

No, the beta was over...
 
That was a DEMO. The only thing they would fix was the lag. And the lag wasn't the biggest issue...
 
It fucking sucked.

I get that with pretty much every game nowadays. If I see too much of a game in development it will spoil me on it before it's even released, especially when they make terrible trailers like this.

I don't really get the hate on this game, Crysis and Far Cry 1 were great games, as long as this has the open nature of those It'll be fine.

Ugh that song is an absolute affront to Frank Sinatra. I mean, UGH.

Other than that, I think the SP looks pretty good. And I'm a PC player btw. Not sure about the MP though...

The single player might be something I want to play unlike the multiplayer for this game.

That "Maximum Armor" voice is so awesome even if it is some simple voice filter.

I'm glad it looks to be keeping the style of the first game, the multiplayer demo was a little gross.

I'm pretty sure I'm one of the only people on the site who actually enjoyed the MP demo. That said, I'm actually excited for Crysis 2, not gonna lie. And the single player looks just fine. Sure, as a trailer this kinda sucked, but at least it showed off the gameplay. And you know what? it looked fine to me.

Why does this game get so much? Crysis 1 still is one of the most original and unique shooters out there and Crysis 2 looks just as much.

To everyone raging on the multiplayer.  FREE RADICAL did the multiplater.  The Haze guys did that while crytek focused on the single player.  Honestly canceling pre-orders because  of a multiplayer demo is probably the stupidest thing i've ever heard.  The original crysis had shit multiplayer as well, but everyone here seems to love that one.

some of this looked like new streamlined shit 
and some of it felt like it should belong in Duke Nukem Forever

They could possibly be mind/normal slaves, or they could possibly want Alien technology and have offered their services as a means of achieving this goal, etc, etc... 
Many reasons could answer your question.
