Sort of the thing that makes me think this one still has a ghost of a chance, but then I've liked the games The Chinese Room has made before mostly for their writing and music. I'll probably be disappointed, but them at the helm doesn't kill it for me like it probably does for people who wanted more of the original.

Oh I might have forgot to put it in my post, but the original writer/lead and composer got kicked off the project when they dumped Hard Suit labs and gave the project to The Chinese Room. That - combined with the latest trailers - is why people who like the original have very little hope of the sequel recapturing the magic.
