    I hope there are plenty of mirrors hosting this thing. My broadband connection isn't worth bupkis if I have to wait in line all night.

    *Jumps for joy*. Sorry, can't talk now, I'm going to go get into my cerimonial headdress and do spiritual dance infront of my CA poster for the next 72 hours.

    Does the demo included pigz, catz, dogz, womenz, headhurlerz, pharaohs, Scorpion King and the rest of the circus?

    I certainly hope it does, because I want to MOD them out of the demo!

    Will be such a satisfactory, kathartic experience
    Here here! Lets hope that it is moddable... I don't know much about demos, since I never played the MTW one...

    Ditto. I think my Monday is going to be extremely sad indeed - I shall be sat in front of the PC all day refreshing the IGN page every minute until the demo is available, then I shall download and play it. A lot.

    After ending up spending half a day trying to find a server that wasn't full when I was after the thief 3 demo I don't want to do that again with RTW. I need my Romans and I need them NOW! Patience is a froggy virtue, but only when there are no Romans involved

    Can I arange with someone to burn the game and ship it to me Via Snail mail, I have a 56k thats out in the sticks, so it only goes about 20kbs, If someone can I'll ship you the money for the cd, work, mailing fees, As if this game works even on minimal settings, and zoomed out, on my system, Ill be happy.

    Anyone In Canada want to give me a hand?

    PDT I assume is Pacific Daylight Time which is 7 hours behind GMT so is 8 hours behind BST, so the RTW demo is out in Britain at 8 o'clock.

    You should be able to get the demo from a games magazine; it will take a while before they put it on their demo discs but as RTW is a big name game it should get on fairly quickly. Slower than downloading but an option if no one in Canada will post a copy your way.

    Wow ! I was alerted to this very positive news yesterday. I'm simply thrilled we will get a demo. ohhh and btw I probably won't bother too much to download it on Monday, as I would probably end up waiting forever. But who knows let's see if we can get some unofficial mirrors up.

    If anyone gets or sees some unoffcial mirrios kindly post in this thread to help the others avoid the expected waiting period.

    Cheers
