    I've had some rough experiences downloading content on the night of over xbl. Lots of errors and frustrations have caused me to wait til the morning to download, but I'm going to try and bring myself to see this download through. Are you prepared to stay up and start your new adventure through Liberty City.... or will you restrain yourself and wait until your done with Street Fighter IV?

    I live in Australia and here it will be hitting around 7pm local, so I don't really ever have that problem. I'm still not sure whether I'm ready to drop the 1600 for the content though since I haven't played the GTA4 since finishing it. Hmmm...

    I don't think it'll be so bad.  Less people are going to be BUYING and downloading this than they did with the Halo Wars demo (over 2 million downloads?).  I predict Live will not hiccup.

    There will probably be quite a few people picking it up tonight. If it even goes live at midnight. A lot of downloads don't actually become available until the afternoon or so of the day they're released.

    You also don't have to worry about SFIV. Most retailers won't have it until Wednesday.

    You have to buy it off of marketplace. It hasn't showed up yet. But I put in GTA IV and went to the marketplace through there. It showed up and I started the download and it canceled itself. It even took my points!!!

    The retail L&D is just a code. No disc

    Actually, surprised it's so low. Even without the engine and stuff, it is ten hours worth of game.
