Poor you, I was downloading near 2MB/s, started slow though at 1MB/s. Hey this game is pretty cool. Played most of last night online with others. Funny how some people haven't got the foggiest of what to do. I'd be hacking a terminal and guys wouldn't protect me. It was like uh duhhhh guys! I like all the neat little additions like hacking doors etc. It's sort of like Bioshock in that sense. Then I earned a bunch of guns I never got to try out yet. I think I found my new addiction! Laughing for free this game is awesome.

Amazing how much fun a title is without spending a hundred million and twelve years to make.
