I just got a copy with a new video card from evga.  It seems kind of fun 
but not that special.  Has anyone else played it?  Seems less like Quake 
and more like Battlefield or the original ET: Wolfenstein.

I played the demo and was not very impressed. Indeed, it felt a bit like a 
cross between ET and Battlefield.

I played it one day at a lan party. I played it most of the day because that 
was what everyone wanted to play. Abouth the time I started to get a little 
skill I also realized I was bored. Hardly quake-like. Haven't played since.

I tried the demo and while it was ok, it wasn't anything that seemed to 
hold my interest. Finding servers that the teams are balanced on is also 
  hard to do. Hey, at least they let us demo it!

I've played it a little bit offline against bots and it's fun but 
certainly not revolutionary.  I'm looking for some new kind of 
multiplayer game.  I think crysis might be fun online, but it would 
still be more of the same. 

I've got a ton of new games to get through right now:
The Witcher, COD4, Crysis, Gears of War, Halo 3, HL2 Ep. 2, Bioshock and 
I just bought Oblivion for the 360.  Plus I never finished STALKER or 
Dark Messiah.  That's a load of good games that have either just been 
released or aren't that old.

Gears of War is really awesome.
