Someone ripped the gameplay footage from the stream and posted it. Framerate is wobblier than the original livestream most likely due to misencoding, but it's bearable.
IMO, the game looks.., decent? A mostly linear stealth infiltration mission isn't really the best way to show the game off, but it strikes me as reasonably well put together. It is clearly low budget, and it has a vaguely PSP game-esque feel to its interface design. I heard from playtesters that it was "a huge improvement over Rambo", and... yea, it certainly is.
The scanning vision thing that shows hostiles through walls is a bit concerning. I'm worried that players might spend literally hours with their screen tinted a sickly green because they're afraid of walking around a corner and getting immediately murdered by a Terminator. But paradoxically I'm pleased by how lethal the Terminators are. They see you, they open fire, you die. Most Terminator games have treated T-800s as not really a big deal. In this game they will pulverize you. That said, I would like to see how the game looks in open combat. If the game's combat is crappy, it could undermine the entire experience.
It's interesting that they have Robert Patrick's likeness for a corpse you find sitting in a chair. I wonder if they have any other classic character likenesses.
Hope they release more gameplay footage soon. I'm a big fan of showing people how the game opens.
