The cod and the thighs i can definitely see similarities. The shins and the bootcaps look to be pretty different. The forearms look to be substantially armoured...
I've attached the images I'm drawing my comparisons from....
I never said that the gauntlets or shins aren't different, but looking at it, the shins do have several similarities with the originals. Take a look at these pictures.
Boots, boot caps and shins:
On the left Jorge's foot, on the right another of the Spartan's (hijacked the photo from another thread). The boots appear identical, the boot caps appear similar, with Jorge's being just larger. The shins themselves look just like really beefed up shins. The patterns are definitely the same. The real difference is the knee cap, where Jorge has a much bigger one.
Upper arms:
Left is a screenshot from Bungies homepage, right is Jorge from the trailer. I see no difference, other than Jorge's attachments.
Chest:
To the left a screenshot from Bungie, on the right Jorge again from the trailer. Look at the similarities in the circles, top to bottom. The front of the chest looks exactly like standard with the add on of Jorge's thermos. The bottom circle is to highlight the metal "spike" portruding downwards. You can also see the arms in this shot in similar angles, again looking identical.
Back:
On the left a screenshot taken from the Vidoc Once more Unto the Breach of one of the other Spartan's (don't know who), on the right a screenshot of Jorge from the same Vidoc, clearly without his backpack. Notice the similarity in the red, blue and green lines. Jorge's yellow cover seems to come over the top part of the backpack, highlighted with pink lines.
