    So, for Windows, a 56k modem vs. DSL adds 10 minutes to your download time. For PS2, a 56k modem vs. DSL adds four hours and five minutes to your download time.

    Something about that doesn't seem right.

    There is no rush. If you're not willing to take your time, don't be surprised when no one wants to give you much of theirs.

      Probably someone's math screwed up. This does however mean I am getting less and less time to play during my last vacation time of the year.

          great...I get home and install Wings of the Goddess and then have to sit through another lame hour update before I can play. That stinks!

            methinks the error was that they didn't just list 5+ hours for everything.

              Maybe they left the guy who did the Crystal War Revisited chart in charge of calculating download times. Or they're using Excel 2007.

                I got my automated "Your game is ready" message. Said it should be around noon. Trying to call now to see if it's actually there, and I keep getting a busy signal.

                Good thing I have my PS3. I can start the download, then make some more progress in Assassin's Creed. Hell, I could even open my GameFly envelopes and play Resistance or Skate. I think I'll stick with A.C. though. ^^

                  Sort of OT, but I'm surprised SE hasn't put up a System Req page for the Windows version yet.

                    ... once you have the expansion installed.

                        Has anyone else done this for the 360 yet? It checks 8294 files, which takes like 15 minutes, then downloaded 70 which only took 5...but then instead of installing it says 'unable to verify version information, version update failed' and I get to start checking 8294 files all over...

                          SE said there was going to be an error and all you have to do is re d/l it and it will be fine.

                          Edit: Here is the actual quote from SE concerning 360 ver.

                          Xbox 360 Only

                          After installing the expansion disc Wings of the Goddess, or the Final Fantasy XI: Vana'diel Collection, and attempting to download the version update, the error code "POL-12313" will be displayed. Retrying the download will allow the version update to proceed normally.

                            Ahhh I thought I had seen something like that, but I couldn't find it again when I was looking for it. Thanks^^

                              oO omfg, I jsut looked at the new boxart for the '08 collection for the 360 and they so improved it! It makes the old one look even more like shit! ; ; If it wasn't for the one single registration code I would go pick up the '08 edition.
