It is already been speculated that there isn't enough broadband space in America to keep up with growth because of video streaming on websites like YouTube and online gaming. I think it was by 2012 or something, I will try to find the website, but if Microsoft really thinks that online distribution is the future then internet providers are going to have to put all their profits and then some into getting more bandwidth and faster internet, which for some reason, I don't think they want to do.



God hates console fanboys.

@kingofwale

Thats odd as I pay about 58 dollars and for my current internet plan, and my download tops out at around 350-400K and is pretty steady(rogers)... I'm thinking of ordering a T1 line. lol

While on topic of media formats...I'd love to cartriges make a comback. :)

 well, they do claim it's 5mbps d/l, but since I've never gotten anywhere CLOSE to that number, what's the point?

 I'd be happy with just 200-300Kbps, My ITune Podcast is downloading at 12 kbps, and it took me HOURS to download a videopodcast. Absolutely garbage.

I wouldn't even care except when times (6PM-12AM) I can't even use the websites properly.

Well, MGS4 is 50Gig (and would be bigger if it could be).

I don't want to DL that, and even if I could, where would I put it? If I had a 1 TB drive, my library could only be 20 games (if they all were MGS5 size).

This is just PR spin to say "Sony won, but who cares". MS really could use some class at the top.
