A few preview articles for Crysis 2 have started to pop up in both magazines and online articles today. Of note is the fact that there are now just four modes present in the Nanosuit 2.
Shacknews has a new preview that details a few of the scenes shown off to various publishers.
More information and further explanation of the demonstration can be read over at Shacknews. If you missed The Wall trailer, be sure to check it out again after the jump.

The demonstration began a first-person view of our power-suited protagonist looking out the shattered window of a skyscraper, smoke billowing out from the ruined New York City landscape as trash and debris fluttered in the wind. The objective, shown in the upper left-hand corner, was to infiltrate the headquarters of Nanosuit maker CryNet.
Switching to Power, our hero leapt out the window and landed on the rooftop below--a fall that presumably would have killed him if not for his use of Armor. He then surveyed a neighboring rooftop using the Nanosuit's tactical visor functionality, only to find it being patrolled by the human private military contractors of CryNet Security.
Running forward, our avatar approached the edge and made a Power-enhanced jump to that rooftop, cloaking via Stealth in-mid air to land silently and invisibly. After approaching one of the patrolling guards from behind and snapping his neck, he hid behind solar panels while the suit's cloak recharged.
As the remaining guards took notice of their fallen comrade and made their way to his position, our hero drew his gun and fired through the array. The ensuing fire-fight resulted in a few less guards but also reduced the panels to shiny fragments.
