Messiah Demo -- 9:21 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Shiny has released a demo of their much-anticipated new game, Messiah. This is one of the first games to make use of the hardware T&L capabilities of the GeForce. You can get info on the demo from Shiny's site. You can download the 70M demo from Gigex here, if you are behind a firewall or here, if you aren't. The demo requires a PII 233, 64M RAM, and a 3D accelerator.

Just one caveat: I've been hearing that a lot of people have had a lot of problems getting the demo to run properly. Check Shiny's site (see link above) for any news or fixes.

Update! One of Shiny's programmers forgot to compile a script for the demo. Thus, when you start it for the first time, the program compiles the script, which could take up to five minutes. From then on, you should be golden.
