    3 gigs, on dial-up that's like eight and a half days of solid downloading! What speed connection do you have?

    Oh yeah that&#39;s a great game, especially with a controller. Runs better on the PC too, no jutters.

    Are you sure? Working on the basis that on dial-up at full speed, you can download one megabyte every four minutes, that&#39;s 15mb and hour, and 360mb a day, so by my working it should have taken atleast four days solid. Anyway... is it any good, I was thinking of getting it.
