    Hey guys I just got my GT70 yesterday and now Im downloading my games. The problem is thats its taking HOURS to download 1 game and its only 432MB! The other game was 569MB and it took 4 hours to download. I dont have anything else going on the computer it is super fast when browsing and Speedtest.net says Im getting 56 down and 12 up which is great! Is it possible this one game and the DLC is just taking this long??? I have tried pausing it and starting again but doesnt help.

    Yep, that's the internet for ya. Probably downloading from a busy server. If speedtest looks good, I wouldn't worry about it.
