Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri demo gets updated build

Sid Meier’s Alpha Centuari Updated Demo has a new file out today, and PC gamers with itchy download fingers have something else to grab. Firaxis today announced that the company has updated the demo for the upcoming Sid Meier’s Alpha Centuari. The updated version of the demo includes higher resolution artwork and additional game customization features. The demo is currently available at official web site, and captures the early excitement of the game by providing a limited 100-turn single-player game. While playing, gamers are able to build 10 bases and discover technologies up to level 5.

That is the bargain we keep making with PC gaming: more patches, more drivers, more tools, and hopefully a better game on the other side. Sometimes it fixes everything. Sometimes it just gives us a new version number to complain about.
