Hmmm, the bittorent link is going amazingly slow. I would have assumed it would be faster than the other methods. 132 minute wait at fileplanet.... ouch.

EDIT: fast source is here

http://www.hugi.is/hahradi/bigboxes.php?bo x_type=leikir&page=view&id=193

Its in whatever language they speak in inceland though

Theres a link at the right that says demo with the Unreal Pic above it.

SWEET

3DGamer's has a bit torrent file! Cool- no problem getting this now-

http://www.3dgamers.com/dl/games/unr...ademo.exe.html


edit- it starts out slow, but it's up to 60kb/s already and climbing, plenty of seeds (15)- and 47peers.
I imagine this d/l will go up to about 130kb/s or more by the time it really gets going. I've had torrents up to 370kb/s - and they didn't have this kind of activity, so this is really good. I don't know why more sites don't set up torrent files, it's like free bandwidth (for the people trying to give you the file)- the way the internet SHOULD be...

In the time I was writing this it rose to 100kb/s and still climbing fast. I us Burst

Nice job finding that link; maxing out my 2mbps line.

And whoever is paying money to fileplanet for a service everyone else provides for free...what's wrong with you?
