Day one video game updates
First world problems. I don't buy many games but nearly all of them have 3-8GB release day patches. Wouldn't be an issue but I can only get about 500MB downloaded per hour. No other options for internet service out here in Hogwaller. Guess I'll have to go do something productive.

on the upside we get games a few weeks before they would have launched before.

Day one updates piss me off... Just means bugs we know about but couldn't be bothered to fix because we had to meet our ship date.

Games are about the only product that people seem perfectly OK with buying full of problems and issues. The consumer base should cease buying these games until they work, and then you will see the industry get better, but when they know they can release broken software and it will still sell millions, what do they care

Yeah that was a rude awakening when I bought my xbox one. Had to wait an entire day before the console updates were done and then a good 6-8 hours before i could play Forza. My DSL is slow.
