RtCW Win32 Demo Released -- 2:01 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

As promised, the demo of Return to Castle Wolfenstein has been released. This is the Windows (95/98/2K/XP) version only. It weighs in at 114.1M. Blue's News has a list of mirrors. The demo is single-player only.

UPDATE! Well, I downloaded it, rebooted to Windows (blech) and installed it. While it does seem like it would be a fun game to play, my system is definitely too underpowered for it. The action was quite choppy even with the options really turned down. That's not a big shock since my box basically has the minimum requirements. So while it's cool (I really like the multiplayer test), my system will need an overhaul before it's worth buying for me.

Update! The Master I tried it out here, and it's a sweet game. A lot creepy (I jumped at least once) but wow. Excellent job on this game, a must-get for me-and I'm bored to tears of FPS games :-)

J.t.Qbe comments: I had to give it a try too, and wow! Very impressive. I'd be more tempted to get it if it looked better on my system--I have an ATI Xpert 128 and every scene has some annoying imperfections. Anyway, I picked up No One Lives Forever on sale a few weeks ago and need to play that first!
