WoW players: we have all your patch 2.4 news!

Our Preyers have been answered

Hey, remember that last post? That post that said the Prey demo was coming this Sunday? Well, screw that post. That post is dead to me. The long and short of it is that the Prey demo is available right damn now. Major Nelson himself hath emailed us and decreed it so.

...What? Are you still reading this? Go get it! At 1.17 gigs you'd best get started now. I have.

im more pumped about this than i thought i would be. germany beating argentina, now this. its a good day.
this info should be passed over to joystiq so a larger audience can find this out. then again, more people downloading a 1.17 gig demo will slow live down.

Let's hope the reason for the delay was because they needed to increase their bandwidth. 1.17GB! HUGE! Can't wait to try this one.

Man 'o man! First it was that people could hardly wait for full versions of games, now it's all about having to wait for a demo! Before we know it, people are going to be pissing and moaning because a screenshot or movie wasn't released in time. After that, then what can you cry about? Knowing that there are so many little babies out there, who knows.

Isn't crying and moaning about people crying and moaning sort of hypocritical, trivial, and simply pointless?

My download is fast. I just started it, maybe 5 minutes ago, and it's already at 50%. Probably beat the rush since I got off work early.
