He can jump now?! OMG I didn't think current-gen games had the capability to employ such an advanced technology!

Never played Rearmed, but the soundtrack was effin' amazing. Like, 'you need to own this and put it in your car' amazing.

Rearmed was - and this is - done with a ton of tongue in cheek humour. The drum up for the jump mechanic in the trailer is that; humour.

In the first game there's even a dialogue exchange about jumping to conclusions and not being able to jump at all. :D
