The PC beta came on a DVD, so that means greater than 700MB and less than 4.5GB. Pretty wide range, actually... I would figure on it being less than 2GB. Even that much would be an unreasonable download, especially for a game console.

Really, that damn FF XI took an insane amount of time to download.

In fact, every demo on live takes forever.

It'll probably be same as every other game demo on the X360, so 1 gig.

I haven't downloaded any demos yet, but most of the trailers I've downloaded (excluding E3 on Halo3 day. I swear I thought Xbox Live was on fire >_>) have taken a good 35 minutes or so.

I'm just going to DL it before I head out for school, so it should be done by the time I get home.

If it means anything, the installer for PSU JP that I have is 5.1 gigs, and the program folder installed doesn;t differ much from that o_O

For me it depends on...well Im not too sure. But I downloaded smackdown the other week, almost a gig I think, took 30-40 min, while fifa 07 took....like 3 freakin hours!

I don't know what's been up with Xbox Live recently. Arcade games download speedily as ever for me (fast for their size), while all of the demos I've tried to download, have taken improportionately long amounts of time to download.

It'll probably take all of the two days it'll be available, to download the demo of it, for me. :/

I believe that I won't be able to play during the download... I'll just stare at the download bar for 30mins

I'm guessing the amount of download time depends on download speed on ur pc?

naw not pc but internet connection. yoru downloads speed are based on the type of internet speed you have.

I wonder if the beta will be the full 100% game, of if they will leave out some of it to make it shorter.

wow it only takes me about 15 minutes to dl a 1 GB game sometimes on my cable connection... hopefully it wont take forever to DL this beta whenever it decides to come out...
