after they add more servers to keep the system from bogging down.

Going on 2 1/2 days downloading Poseidon HD 4.5GB and only 54% complete on a 6MBps connection.

ThaTeflonDon6354d ago

And I meant 1 1/2 days .....but to keep you on tabs ..I'm at 59% ..I'mma have to pop the cork on the champaign when this sh!t finishes ...lol

FadeToBlack6354d ago

On day 2 trying to download V for Vendetta HD its at 44%

BIadestarX6354d ago (Edited 6354d ago )

Yeah, bandwidth is a problem. It will take 5 times more servers than what's needed for game servers. I'm sure microsoft has a plan for this; kudos for microsoft for jumping into this. It will be a while before this will be smooth. But this is a start and it's better than nothing (which is what every other console is offering).

philkid6354d ago

2 1/2 days for 50%.when you ask your girlfiend round to watch a hd dvd you have 5 days on the beer with the boys, get in. LOL am sure it will sorted out

BIadestarX6354d ago

XBox 360 with all these features $399, PS3 with none of these features $599, microsoft expanding the network the way they did with xbox live $Millions, look in your face when this service become the next xbox live for entertainment [priceless].

philkid6354d ago

LOL. Ye am looking forward to this service am in the UK when does it come over here? any idea

beans6354d ago

As soon as MS figures out away to speed up downloads than live will be something to truly look out for!

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil1d 5h ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai23h ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing6910h ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle9h ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

Abnor_Mal4h ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

dadavis199220h ago

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19899h ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

kevco339h ago

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
