Bioshock PC Demo Available

The PC demo of the award winning game Bioshock is now available to download.

Instead of having to wait for it to finish with Bittorrent or signing up for the Fileplanet pre-release, you can download it directly from one of the following mirrors:

As always, download speeds will vary by connection type and the amount of people downloading. I recommend using a download manager such as Free Download Manager to ensure you download as fast as possible.

This demo will allow you to gauge whether or not your computer can run it before you purchase/download it when it comes out tomorrow. It is important to note that the release of the demo was timed so that updated video drivers could be released by Nvidia and AMD, so be sure to download those later today to achieve the best possible performance.
