BioShock PC Patch and third BioShock 360 Title Update are available for download tonight at midnight, PST. These updates will not only fix some issues remaining with the game, but will also give both PC and 360 fans new plasmids and tonics, as well as another achievement for Xbox Rapturians.

And since you guys have been so patient waiting for this patch, we're giving you all the additional content completely free.
