Bioshock PC Demo

[Tatsur0]

Hey guys,
As some of you know not only am I a lead dev for ZP:S but I also run the Machinima/Gamer site http://www.gwchannel.tv (Creators of the well known and award winning machinima "ClanWarz", "Militia2", and the compLexity documentaries. Well we recently setup the new Bioshock PC Demo on our network and are sharing this with the public to promote this wonderful game. Average download time is around 15-30mins (I finished mine in less than 10mins) for the complete 1.84gb demo. Read below for further information and enjoy




"BioShock" ? which has steadily built hype since last year's E3 and is veering toward a fall 2007 release on 360 and PC ? will cast its players in Rapture, a creepy, art-deco-style undersea city that is slowly flooding. The game will also pit players against foes like the lumbering Big Daddies, grunting men in bulky diving suits who collect bodily fluids from corpses. He hopes "BioShock" will change what people expect from every first-person shooter that follows it. He promises a game that mixes heaps of bullets, guns and blood with dashes of philosophy, economics and architecture.

GW Channel (GWFilms) most known for their machinima and documentary productions, is now offering the BioShock Demo through their revolutionary new network (powergrid network). With the most amazing download speeds this new network offers the 1.8GB BioShock Demo in an average download time of 15-30mins depending on your connection speed.

Getting it for the 360 today - looks excellent to say the least

Download the demo and play it, certainly, but I think you'll be disappointed with what you find. It's certainly a top notch game visually, but it has that same flavor as Doom 3. And by that I mean, it looks GREAT, but the "lol scare you" gameplay gets old fast, and what is SUPPOSE to scare us ends up just making us laugh half way through the game...

But. I've only played the demo and a small bit of what my friend's 360. It could be the awesome socks game that's been hyped for so long.

(Still worth the wait, just to see another UE3 game.)

looks good, but i dont have a 360, and im gonna bother getting another new PC that meets its standards just to play it.

i got the steam demo of Bioshock and it was awesome. It's made me seriously consider buyin it..

Edit: Does anyone know if the UK version (that isn't downloaded from Steam) is 'Vista' only?

I still have no idea what this game is about, despite reading articles. Like, I know it's a survival-horror-FPS in a sinking city and whatnot, but what is the plot?

I'll play it when I upgrade my graphix card. It doesn't support one of the shaders sooo mad..

Your on a plane. Plane crashes. You swim to a tower. Tower has a submarine. Submarine takes you down to underground city you didn't know about. You learn that it's a city free from moral judgment in a political sense. When you arrive, you are attacked by a crazy. You talk with some random guy who makes you do his own work. Through this, you learn about Plasmids, genetically altering injections that give you special powers. These are made with ADAM, the genetic material taken from people, and used with EVE, a blue substance used to help the body remain "human."

This is just from the demo and some news releases, so don't go screaming spoilers.
