Well, I have to disagree with Gurm that the game runs like shiiait 
Installation. I have no problem with it puttin 1,5 GB on my drive and you would probably get much longer loading times if it ran directly of CD.
SecuROM. Yes it sucks but it didn't cause any problems here.
"Queer screen saver". You don't have to watch it, notice the "Press ESC bla bla bla" text. Almost all games have some title sequnce with logos of the involved companies and this was pretty nicely done.
Options screen. The stuff that I did change, graphics and sound was OK, don't know about the controls so I won't argue here.
Loading times. I didn't notice that the loading took a long time, it was like between 5 - 20 seconds depending on what was being loaded. I agree that you should be able to skip the cutscenes but the saving/quicksaving takes 2-3 seconds on my machine.
Graphics. They look very nice but I hade to get the latest drivers because the models were all smeared and messed up. I have a GeForce 3 Ti200 and for the most of the time it runs well except on some places with alot of enemies trying to kill me at the same time, when it starts to lag, although it never becomes unplayable. I'm running at 1024x768x32, 75Hz, no AA, everything set to high except the shadows which are turned down, not off. Yes, the cut scenes are badly done but in-game everything looks fantastic!
Sound. Good sound, had to turn off EAX on my SB Live! 5.1 otherwise the game would crash now and then.
Gameplay. The game is good, nothing wow! that I will remeber but it doesn't suck, kind of little better than mediocre. Weapons. Like the shotgun the most but that's just me
Levels. Nicely done and look great.
Enemies. They look good also, can't compare with UT2003 since I haven't played it.
The story was kind of bad and the game is nothing special and it's damn short, didn't took me long to finish. The alien Draak world looked very creepy and the two last levels are the best, the story kind of gets it's meaning and you finally get to have some use of that damn sniper rifle that you've been carying around.
