Well since there is no Demo Impressions thread, I thought I'd go ahead and make one myself. I managed to download the demo toay and at 750 MBs big, WOW the demo size was smaller than I thought!! As soon as I coppied it into the primary gaming PC my brother sat down on it's seat and said "I'm trying the demo first!". Heh, that little sneak. 
Anyways, after timkering with the settings for a minute (which there isn't much to tinker around with, oddly) my brother played through a match, and I watched him go through it. The game looks so great, and to my great suprize it runs smoother than I thought it would! The game definatly has more of a hardcore feel to it, especially the weapons. The look, the sounds, the feel, they really feel like hardcore weapons only meant to be used in future day deathmatch arenas. My brother especially likes the Stinger Minigun. The bots also seem to be very smart, even smarter then the first 2 UT games.
All in all, my brother's final thoughts are that while the graphics are great and the gameplay is more intense than ever, the overall gameplay feels overall the same as in the past UT games. Or, in his own words, "The graphics are great and the game feels intense, but it feels too much like UT2004".
I'll try a session myself and post my own hands on thoughts on the game itself. But what about you guys? How do you feel about this demo?
