I've played both the demos and they were fun, but hardly ground-breaking. They could at least have included a non-US mission to make it at least feel a little different to MoH. The crossing the Volga mission (looking like it comes straight from Enemy at the Gates) looks awesome, but no - we're stuck with yet another bunch of US soldiers running through ruinous streets. Ho hum.
And I agree that the enemy emplacements were too contrived. On several occasions I felt I was playing a parlour game instead of a 3D FPS. It's like shooting little metal ducks with an air-rifle.
