Messiah Demo Released

Nov 20, 1999 2:31am CST tags: Messiah, Demo
The Messiah demo has been released! Here you go guys check out this link for the downloads. I would actually recommend hitting the 'behind a firewall' link since you dont have to deal with all that gigex crap and just fill out a bunk email address. In case you're not sure if you want the demo, since it is 70 megs here are some images of the game: [shot1] [shot2] [shot3] [shot4] [shot5] [shot6] [shot7] [shot8]

The demo includes the first level of the full game.The Messiah demo is available via Gigex download: download it here or, if you're behind a firewall download it here The system requirements are: PII 233 or, 64 MB RAM, sound board, 3-D accelerator.

update 4:15am: So far very few people in the comments has been able to get the demo to work! It's hard locking on nvidia and 3dfx based video cards both. Might wanna hold off on that 70meg download...

update 8:52am by Maarten: Billy has posted what seems to at least have it load on a Glide machine. According to him, after loading you'll hear a beep (without seeing anything), then hit enter and just wait (it may take several minutes). Still kinda stupid, game shouldn't take minutes to load, but that seems to be the case here.
