You can download the demo from the Gamespot or its webpage. They have the nice graphics, fully with reflections and dynamic lighting, and very realistic movements like climbing. But make sure you better be prepared, these monsters and demons looks really scary. At one level, the woman (also a player) got herself sucked into the hole (or a well) and you must press the up, down, left, right key according to the arrows shown in that time period, or else she might fall to her death or a some kind of zombie soldier showing his face to you, kicking your butt!!!

I like the "scare-factor" though, the classic "popping up" monsters. I got the goosebumps for the first time listening to the dripping sound and all the other movements. Doom3 and FEAR scare-tactics isn't making me jump at all, strange, IMHO. Still, I haven't get to play Bioshock - is my computer in my 1st sig cut it? I don't have the processor or anything else (except the RAM) that are fit according to the requirements - or it is so?

BioShock requires a relatively fast GPU and CPU to run well.
