To be honest, I want to play some more of the NHL demo but THAT would be a d-load murder to do. Sucks how if u game while downloading, the d-loads stall something terrible. 26%

I hear ya man, that NHL Demo has got me really psyched for that too. Me and my roommate played way too many games of NHL12 to be considered healthy. 13 is shaping up to be even better in my opinion.

Back on topic...I thought about going with a wired connection for the DL, but then i'd be bored out of my mind. oh well, 30%.

bcruise: I usually only background DL stuff that i don't really care about. I always thought it would make it dl slower (but hindsight has me thinking it's just because my ps3 is usually just an expensive netflix player this time of year). I'll have to do it more consistently, thanks for the tip.

If you have turbo boost that would be the reason for the fast download after reboot. Turbo only works for the first few MB's. Then slows down.

At 43% after about 16 minutes. Going faster than expected

42% so far. I estimate it to be done around 7:20-7:30 EST for me.
