Steam
now offers the opportunity to pre-purchase BioShock for digital download, which
includes a pre-load of Irrational's eagerly anticipated first-person shooter so
it can be played as soon as it officially debuts on August 21.
Update:
Valve responded to our question about what time the release would occur, saying it
would be at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, and that there is now a ticker on the front
page of
the Steam Website counting down
to the release.
