Hi evryone,

Just wondering how long it takes for you guys to download stuff from the online store, am asking because mine takes forever and i dont know whether this is normal or not? for example a trailer takes about 1 hour, demos 4-5 hours and games.........well put it this way i have left my ps3 on all night far too many times!!

Is this the same for you?

It takes me about 1 hour to get 700mb done.

And from what ive heard the PS3 downloads much faster than the 360.

it depends..small game demos like "the last guy" toke me like 15min...as for bigger games it depends on what game I'm downloading..toke me 5 hours to download the resistance demo yet toke me only 30min to download the grid demo (resistance was like 1 gb and grid was like 900mb...not such a diffrence in size considering it toke me a 4 hour diffrence)

havent downloaded any trailors yet..I consider it a waste of time and space becuase I can just watch them on youtube

Yes, yery unhappy with the download times of any items from the PS Store. I am with the premium broadband program in Australia and it took still almost 24 hours to download a 5 gig game. Pretty lame for an organisation who wants us to shop there....

well you heard wrong!!! i can download 7-9gb an hour on live and 3-5gb an hour on psn and 8-10gb an hour on steam. i dont have a problem with psn download speeds overall. but i find psn to be more slower with downloading demos&movies than xbox live. but my online gameplay between live&psn to be the same and thats all that matters to me

if you're trying to get people to go to your site, needlessly spamming is NOT the way to go. on-topic, your speeds sound excessively slow. sure the PSN doesnt always have the best speeds, but they're a lot better than that.

Depends on the speed of your connection. Downloads are usually very fast for me.

Download times depend on internet connectivity and file size.
