American McGee's Bad Day LA is now available in demo form, featuring a small section where Santa Monica is struck down by some biological terror. Apparently all that fits into just 260MB of demo, too.

The full game is due out on PC and Xbox later this year, and sees Los Angeles struck by a series of disasters - not just natural, as we remarked yesterday, but also some set upon the residents of LA by The Terrorists. Perhaps they brought books to the beach.
