I use FLASHGET for rapidshare links. It just lines them all up and downloads 3 at a time. Works great.

Can do 8 at a time if you want.

1260 Replies and the game isn't even out yet :eek:

Thats because of the analogue stick, you can press it slightly for walk or full for run, you can only press W.

.

Thats the only thing i like about console controlls over pc controlls. They should try and add an analogue stick to a keyboard.

Just downloaded

BioShock PC Demo-Multi5-PLAYABLE.part01
BioShock PC Demo-Multi5-PLAYABLE.part02
BioShock PC Demo-Multi5-PLAYABLE.part03
BioShock PC Demo-Multi5-PLAYABLE.part04

99 meg each.

The NFO just went up!

edit:

Here it is, in all it's glory seeing as there's an Internets ****storm going on of people trying to download this
thing and bringing every mirror to it's knees.

I've tested it working on my system without any issues. Framerate seems ok on my setup running at 1024x768, all
other settings were on high by default:

Pentium D 2.6Ghz
1GB DDR2 RAM
Nvidia 7600GTS 256MB

Enjoy!

Every one can take reassurance from that.

Well on CS:S if I wanna walk I just hold Shift down while holding W, more PC games should do that, it works well.

20 minutes left for the demo!! Can't wait to finally test my new pc! Today i will be able to justify spending £1300 a gaming pc! THIS IS MADNESS!!!!

..... *waits for someone to say "Madness? This is BIOOOOOOSHOOOOOOOOOCK!!" * LOL.

i agree but it would be very difficult, the way your hand is when you use a keyboard would make operating a thumbstick very difficult. I think id prefer to see a keyboard or gaming keypad thing with analgue buttons so you could hold it in a bit to walk and push it in fully to run.

Anyone want to lend me a rapidshare acc to get this

SkeeterUK · 20 Aug 2007 at 15:22

Could use tv out lead to put the game on big screen tv and use a wireless keyboard and mouse, i did this a few times with gta sa. Was very nice to play that way.

doodah · 20 Aug 2007 at 15:23

You could do the reconnect/disconnect trick....a bit tedious though

30 mins to go...will let you know how it runs on my rig.

Spirit7 · 20 Aug 2007 at 15:24

Just finished it. All I can say is...believe the hype!

However, I can't get AA working. Tried forcing it via ntune/nvidia CPL but it didn't seem to make a difference? :confused:

Hmm...

Try looking in the config there's something in there about AA I think.

I'm sure a way to get some form of AA working will come out soon enough, perhaps it'll be like Vegas and require a HDR+AA trick, I know nHancer has an option for that on my Vegas profile settings.

Shamikebab · 20 Aug 2007 at 15:26

Im a bit worried now that the pc DX 9 version is going to look inferior to the 360's at the same res because of no AA

Shocked it hasn't been mentioned in any reviews i've read.

I'm using Vista 64 and an 8800 GTS 640...in DX10 mode. Still jaggies abound!

Rapidshare trick of disconect and reconect if u have a non static ip, since when u disconect and reconect u get new ip each time, hence rapidshare lets u download after this trick instantly.
