Graphics are great, framerate burns at a fluid clip, controls are responsive and comfortably fit the Halo-mold. HUD and squad commands are stupidly simple to figure out, and things blow up real nice-like, particularly tossing a detonator into a group of droids. Bigger tank-like enemies take more of a beating, but blow up with a dazzling array of fireworks and light bloom effects. Did I mention the framerate never stuttered?
It's a very short demo though that features no real variety in action set pieces. Just a straightforward 15-or-so minute crawl through a Covenent-esque corridor with the occasional barricade or locked door to order your troops to interact with via context sensitivity.
Looking to be a pretty competent shooter though, much more interesting than I would have thought.
