I downloaded burnout paradise, which is like 700MB, and it took almost 2 hours. If I was too download 700MB on my PC, it'd take like 45 mins-1 hour. Anybody know why?

I don't know man but I feel your pain...its THE SAME way for me. A 1 gig demo would take me 3 hours where as on my PC, it MIGHT take me 30 minutes

It's your internet connection, the best thing to do is to turn on the auto-download feature. It uses your internet connection to download items when you're not playing, just set it at night and it'll turn off when it's done.

That's what I used to have to do when I had DSL, but now I have Cable so my downloads are a lot faster, a 1 gig demo takes about 15-20 minutes or less.
