Woooah! The new trailer is AMAZING! I've played this game for how long now? And this is one of the coolest ones I've seen for it. Sure, it doesn't really show much when you think about it, and it kind of cheats on some of the effects, but it tells a basic story and I love the epic feel of it. It goes a long way to make good use of what are otherwise fairly limited animation, and it's arranged so well that when the camera lingers on that skull face guy as he takes just a millisecond too long to take off, you can almost feel his frustration.
Love it! 
The new site itself is not very different from the old site, though, just with a slightly different shade of blue. Oh, well, at least it's not worse, that's always a good thing.

I was gonna say, it DOES look like either she did it, or they stole her style wholesale.

I still think I like the Ouro trailer better, just because whoever they got to voice Mender Silos stole the show and ran away with it, but this one is a damn close second. Love it!

However, if you click on the "Learn More" link off the splash page you get a 403 Forbidden error, which is a schoolboy cockup.
Seriously, I expect better from people using Frontpage Express.

Trailer or not, I'm long since sick of that splash page. Time to scrap it and let the address resolve to the actual site instead of a magazine ad.

But it is the broken link of: http://na.cityofheroes.com/en/about_freedom/

Looks awesome.

Well really, http://na.cityofheroes.com/en/about_freedom/ should just redirect to the correct location or, even better, set it up properly so that "freedom_overview.php" is the actual index page for that directory.

Site redesign is...interesting. Don't really know what the last one looked like--always went through NCSoft's official page.
New trailer is awesome! Still wish they would go to story-based videos (like the Ouros one someone mentioned, I can almost ignore the weird/bad video thanks to the epic voice actor), but this one has an epic feel I haven't seen from promo vids in a long while. Yay.
Trailer is ok. Learn More link is embarassing.
I will tell my friends it is live and free ... After they fix the link.

Official site was down most of this morning and seems to be up. Looks like Freedom is live, and with it comes a fancy new Web 2.0 website.
Not bad, but I had to block floaty-states-and-minion because it gave me vertigo for some reason. O.o
