So the whole title is, "Infamous 2: Cole's Uncharted Fortune Among Thieves" ??

Might be my most unimpressive trailer at E3. 
 
Melee weapons? NO., 
Change in Voice Actor? NO. 
 
I'm even a bit shakey on the Ice powers.

The tag for the video is awesome. Amped 3 is the greatest.

I personally don't understand the change in voice actor, true his voice was kind of stupid in the first game but they didn't need to change the actor. The change in look is completely understandable. What if it was hot and he decided to take his jacket off? No one ever said he didn't have a tattoo, not to mention it is very possible his hair could've grown. The ice powers won't bother me unless they're just shoehorned in. Overall the game looks like an improvement!

Great, now let's get captain planet up in here.
 
Wtf is up with his hair? Concept of the game looks nice though, and looks like it might turn out to be pretty fucking fun, even though they didn't show much gameplay.

I'll chime in with some positive comments on the new costume. 
 
Looks like some other people have already made a Mirror's Edge comparison, but I think it's great. I loved the runner designs, and especially the split-toe shoe. Looks like Cole is sporting these this time around. 
 
Plus, Dead Rising 2 is stealing Cole's inFamous 1 costume. It's time to move on to something different. 
 
To people who dislike new Cole: I'm curious what you would have preferred to see.

I ... no ... this wasn't really in my taste.

Couldn't help thinking how hilariously stupid it would have looked if he had done a mid-air double jump when he jumped out that rooftop towards the church tower though.

So i'm guessing Cole invested in hair tonic and forgot to take his cough drops? Ok, I really hate his new voice and looks, (No offense to the voice actor,) but the first game was just pure awesomeness to me, so i'll probably get it no matter what.

so what you guys are saying is...he's not allowed to grow hair? 
I can understand changing the voice actor too. His old voice didn't fit his character. 
Oh no new warddrobe! Quit your bitchin jesus. You haven't even played it yet and its a huge disappointment? I'm ashamed of you giant bombers. Look at his face it actually looks fucking similar.

I hated the first Cole so much I couldn't bear to play that game.
          He looked like an alterna-rock hipster douche bag.
               This new design is a little better. But it still looks like a wannabe poseur douche bag.
 
I think the designers at suckerpunch must be a bunch of closeted-geeks if this is what they think a "cool" character looks like.

I am psyched. The new look Cole is far more agreeable that the super harsh original look..the only thing I disliked about the first one was the character..and in an interview with the developers they found that nearly all the reviews of the game did not shine a favourable light on the protagonist so of course they are going to do something to change that..suck it up..get over it..your whinging wont make them change their minds.

 Only one so far! I'm sure they'll have a new fun bag of stuff for us..there was an exclusive in the australian gameinformer which I'm sure was in the American one as well that shows a few alterations including the ability to launch yourself vertically and the ability to create a lightning infused tornado..WIN! I have high hopes for this game and I'm sure the developers will do a fantastic job.

Well, I thought it got leaked that they were changing voice actors a while ago... I think that's definitely supposed to be Cole. I'll have to see more story stuff before I pass judgement on the differences the the characters. The way he looks isn't really swaying me one way or the other. 
 
I think the inclusion of that electro-rod thing on his back has potential. Maybe a bigger melee system this time around.  
 
The ice stuff is cool, but still makes no sense to me.  
 
Mostly, I just need to see more of this game than has been shown.  
 
Also, I really hope your save from the first game carries over. Like your decisions and stuff.

@SnakeEyes327:  if you honestly think that the new " what if Travis Pastrana & Tony Hawk with superpowers" character is less generic than u truly are a fucking idiot, the gameplay is what matters and made inFamous a great game, but it wasn't the only thing, the art style and the story were also what made it good, and by basically saying meh we don't care for it and remaking the main character is ridiculous and fucking stupid, he may have not been the best of characters but overall he fit the game and the narative, so fuck off and go jerk it to the new cole while most every1 else will be with me in agreement that the new Cole looks like a fucking douche with tribals and a lisp, even the old voice actor even tho to gritty sounding he fit the antihero role perfectly the new voice sounds like a fucking dimwit wana be extreme sports/ punk faggot which im sure you are so the new Cole was made for people like your dumbass

Well said and I still need to play the first Infamous lol.

Meh, I didn't even play the first one and even I can see that they changed his appearance and voice too much to even be believed as the same character.  Which is why I say a resounding "Fuck this sequel.".

Very interested, I'd like the see the morality system more fleshed out, but I loved the first game.  Which is weird, as I normally hate open world games.

pretty impressive to build a whole new city this quick... but, for some reason it still feels like that game just came out to me. 
quite a drastic change,  did people have some kind of issue with the original Cole?

I didn't really like the way Cole looked, and I really didn't like how he talked...
 
... but changing it so severely this early in the franchise makes it feel like a different character.  I understand he's not.  But I think they either should've have changed the voice actor, or changed the look... doing both eliminates the continuity of character.  
 
At very least it seems like they have a strong influence on their design.  A lot about the setups in there have strong comic book roots.  Crackdown and Prototype were video game ass video games, while Infamous had a strong sense of style both visually and in story, generated from comic book influence.  Beyond its superior controls, I think that's what set it apart.

Those who read the gameinformer article know two things:
 
1. That is supposed to be Cole
2. The voice actor has been replaced from the first game.
 
That said, I didn't like the old voice actor, and I don't much care for the new one either. They were looking for someone with a more expressive voice that could portray a wider range of emotions rather than always being so gruff. But based on this trailer I think they may have gone too far in that direction. Just creating a new main character would make more sense in the story for the new voice, look, powers, etc.
 
@Kajaah117: Yes! A raccoon! That is definitely what this game needs.
