With rave reviews in the specialist press and industry pundits predicting it will walk away with a string of game of the year awards, eager gamers should set their clocks as a PC demo of forthcoming first-person shooter BioShock will go live at midnight tonight.

An Xbox 360 demo of the game was released last Monday and, with a file size of around 1.35gb, many reported a long wait due to the enormous demand.

In the game, players can turn everything they encounter into a weapon, biologically modify their body with plasmids, hack devices and security systems, upgrade weapons, craft new ammo variants, and experiment with different battle techniques.

One of the reasons the game has been receiving so much praise is that no encounter ever plays out the same and no two gamers play the same way.

The PC demo, which will be available from www.fileplanet.com, makes way for the release of the full game on Xbox 360 and PC this Friday.
