LOL, well a lot of those game review sites did warn that it takes a good chunck of time to install. Even says to be sure you have a couple hrs set aside just for doing the install.

I don't think there is a patch to install, I think it will just take that long to copy and setup all the stuff

Be thankful for that Kagaden, partying would be hell with 150 people on. I find it hard to find parties with 1000 people on.
