Doom_Bringer @GriftGFX: well Dragon age extracted is suppose to be arround 20 gigs but the download was only 8 gigs or 15 gigs...procedure might be different for newer games (6 minutes ago)

GriftGFX 45 minutes for this game would have to be like... 3+ megabytes per second. My Comcast can't do that. (21 minutes ago)

GriftGFX My FFOW DL is almost 12.9 gigs and like 95% done. (23 minutes ago)

GriftGFX Steam appears to download extracted and installed, there's no install process once you finish downloading a game. (24 minutes ago)

Doom_Bringer D2D file right now is 9.2 GB's. I think it was less when I was downloading it (now its extracted) I am pretty sure Steam works the same way. 12 gb is probably the extracted size :P (30 minutes ago)

GriftGFX 2 hours @ 1.5 megabytes per second.. Steam isn't slow it's just f'n huuuuuge! (1 Hour ago)

Doom_Bringer @GriftGFX: I downloaded it off Direct2Drive...it was so fast I didn't even notice it. Finished in like 45 minutes :P (1 Hour ago)
