Improved hand-to-hand combat

Hand-to-hand combat has always played a part in the series, but the trailer suggests that it's much smoother. Again, it could just be a cutscene from the game, but combat is certainly going to be a major component of the game. At 53 seconds an enemy is seen striking you with his gun. Perhaps melee attack will be a combat option this time, rather than an automatic action if you are close enough.
