Played it for a little over an hour. Make sure you install the included version of DirectX and disable Powerstrip if you have it. I had to reinstall and do all sorts of crap to get the demo running correctly.
Right away the game is VERY buggy. The mouse sensitivity is way off. Walking and jumping is floaty. The gravity is fucked up.
Vehicle steering is exclusively through the mouse, which sucks. Turning around or driving backwards is frustrating as all hell.

Even though it looks like a less polished version of UT2004 it runs kinda crappy. No matter what settings or resolution. Again, it could be the mouse and fucked movement that creates the illusion of lag.

I can't think of a single reason to download this demo. Stick with UT2004. Hell, Unreal 2 and XMP was way better.
