To me, it just looked like Halo2 with hellaciously modded maps. I already have my mind set not to pick this game up at launch unless something in the demo blows me away. Since I didn't like the direction they went with Halo2, I doubt they will manage that.
Bungie did say though that Halo 3 would feel more like Halo 1 than Halo 2, so there is some hope.
