Tried the demo this afternoon. There's one multi map available with all three classes (is that a right word here?...) to play as. Played as Alien first, it was a bit weird at first, but once you get used to transitioning between surfaces (i.e. climbing onto walls, etc.) and sneaking up on people (had a neat Alien stealth kill on a Marine, I bet he did not enjoy it much), you can become pretty deadly.
Playing as Marine is very different from this. Loads of weaponry, ammo and stims scattered around the map, relatively slow movement and the radar beeping faster the closer the enemy is... You can get some neat kills too, but it's a whole different feeling and gameplay. I guess those who played AvP2 before already know all this, but this game is my first AvP experience. And it's great.
