I don't want to play the demo before the game's release, especially with it being so soon, but I'm probably going to give in to the tempation :(

It will be VERY difficult to resist the temptation. I want the demo for 2 reasons: the most important is to get a glimpse at the game. The other is to check how well will the game run on my rig (its very likely that I will have to play it on medium or low-medium...)

It would be nice if it were released tonight at midnight, I have to work tomorrow.

It isn't so bad for us Brits - we have to wait until Friday for the game.

I have been torn between getting this on PC or 360. I think I will enjoy it more on my PC but want to make sure it will do well on my rig. So I am very glad this is coming out tomorrow. That will let me change my pre-order if necessary.

I'm thinking that too. I already bought a dual core processor... I wanted to wait for G92 to come out, but I don't know if I can...

I'd be glad to. I need to download both demos. And my PC was just built so it's going to be able to run it nicely.

I expect the PC forums to explode tomorrow in Bioshock frenzy just as the SW and 360 forums have.

I have played the 360 demo, and it shattered a lot of doubts I had about the game.

I know the article didn't mention it, but does anyone know the exact time the demo will be released, or will it just be some time tomorrow afternoon?

Looks like my concern about playing the demo before the game's release is no longer an issue.

Same here. I'd like to see how it runs and get a quick look at the game. Since I almost never buy a game on release, and I have this one on preorder, I'd like a little insurance. But I'm sure my rig will run it just fine. It's fairly current.

IGN rated the 360 version of bioshock a 9.7, so I doubt it will be a poor game based on that review and many others. I'm still gonna try this one out though to see how it runs performance wise. Hopefully it comes out sooner than later today though!
