    I'm a FP Founder's Club member, yet I still can't reserve it because it says reservations are full. Way to support your customers, FilePlanet!

    Late August?

    So that means something like the 20th then, mid august would be like the 15th or so.

    Who cares, sounds like the demo is going to come out after the game does.

    Oh I'm so happy there's going to be a demo!
    Of course, "late august" could mean after the game is out... By which time I would have it anyway... Oh well.

    Yeah sorry about the title, i was so hyped and slipping over my own dribble that i thought the demo was out and pasted the info into the thread box and submitted it before actually reading, God damn excitement Apparently though the FP system works like this:

    1st of a month = Opening of month
    early month 2nd - > 10th
    mid month 10th -> 20th
    late month 20th -> 31st

    So the earliest we will see the demo is the day/night before release :/

    pretty expensive considering that the nearest airport is only reachable via the beach buggy

    I would hope that IG would give us cult members access to the demo before other sites get it. That would be a definite perk for the faithful!

    I hope you're reading this 2KElizabeth.

    This is sort of a letdown, the fact that there going to release a demo after Bioshock is depressing, because we'll already have it. Don't take this as the PC winning because believe me it'll just show up on XBL the same day or like a day later, maybe earlier actually because going straight to Microsoft we'll be much easier for 2k and Irrational then shipping a bunch of discs or data to a magazine HQ.

    I don't know why you guys care about a demo so much anyway.

    I'm happy with just waiting for the game.

    The demo will probably be relatively empty feeling, plus the game will already have come out so who gives a ☺☺☺☺? I mean it's obvious that the demo is more targeted towards people uncertain about the game.

    Tha's what I thought too. If the demo comes out after the game, or even only a few days before the game, then I'll ignore it and just get Bioshock on its release day.

    Guys, You know that fileplanet's stuff is always estimated, it could come out tomorrow or after release, no one knows for sure. Fileplanet is just saying Late August, as in that is the latest they expect to get it.

    Keep your hopes up people!!!

    Well, even if it is out tommorow most people won't know how it is until next month there download speed is so slow, aslo I have never seen them overestimate, it's usually then at the earliest.

    Umm, by the way guys, their reserves page just changed

    Bioshock isn't on their list anymore.
    Something is happening, fingers crossed.

    Yeah, it's FULL, someone already said that earlier, they're not taking anymore reserves which supports my theory of the last minute rush hype on Bioshock.

    Probably this post that might have attracted attention to it if there was some sort of problem, like that magazine that said they would have a demo and were lying, don't get your hopes up for a demo before launch kiddies.
