Eh, I get the feeling that the game will be heavily story driven giving you a linear direction anyway so I was actually pleasantly surprised to see that I had 3 routes to choose from rather than one corridor. I do admit that they nailed the look of the map.

Good write up. Have to admit, I'm getting my hopes up for this game, but not too much. I remember all of the promises of A:CM. No pre-order, but will definitely buy if it lives up to its promises.
Same. If IGN, who I usually agree with when it comes to games purchased, gives it at least a 7, I will buy. Hell, I bought ACM, that game was like a 5 to me.
I usually don't agree with IGN's reviews, nor GameInformer. I tend to prefer fan reviews, especially since a few games proved that reviews can be bought for their opinions or their silence (A:CM's review embargo was a disgrace on this industry).
With the games I buy, my opinions fall in line with theirs. I am sure if I branched out more, my views would differ.

Par for the course in a demo level though I suppose.
Below is a map of the area we played in during the demo. Took me about 30 mins to get through this rather small section.
I do see a switch floor button there, so hopefully some levels will be multi-tiered.
I don't think the map is supposed to look like a video game map. I think it is supposed to look like a map you would actually find in that station. Remember how basic computer graphics are in Alien.
