This game needs more love - it's looking a lot better since last year, and it's getting some quality feedback from IGN and Gamespot.

It is also said that the game should be rendering at 1080p by its release - yes kids, proper 1080p
The IGN and Gamespot vids are both worth a look as they feature different content, but note that IGN's capture is quite poor quality.

Once I grabbed the controller, the first thing that sprung to mind was "Man, this game looks pretty damn good..." and it does. Leveled buildings and debris were everywhere, as were a number of independently-functioning soldiers on both sides of the war while intense firefights took place simultaneously. The framerate was pretty smooth too, with only the occasional hitch in animation occurring because of the earliness of the build.
Perhaps the most impressive portion of the entire demo, however, was the multiplayer exhibition. Running 32 players at once, the networked segment was a lot smoother than expected with as many users as it had going (most of which were located back in Foster City where the testers are) and there were only a couple instances of lag.

There are a handful of weapons and multiple grenade types in the game. Each gun has a primary and an alternate fire. There's a shotgun that can fire one or two barrels. The auger has a standard shot for a primary shot. The alternate fire for that will burrow through walls and other objects. It's similar to, say, the X-ray gun from Perfect Dark, but the key difference is that the shot slows down while it digs through objects, then speeds up again when it gets out. Another weapon is a standard machine gun, but the alternate fire is a tagging shot that fits into a "tagging and trapping" system. You can tag an object with a tagging shot, then fire regular bullets at the tag. The bullets will start swarming around the tag. When you point at an enemy and fire, the swarm will shoot over and pump the enemy full of swarming hot lead. As far as grenades go, you've got a basic grenade as well as the hedgehog, which is a spiked ball that explodes and sends spiky shrapnel everywhere.
