Disc based gaming makes even less sense now than ever. I purchased this as a gift/surprise for my father who is a huge fan of gears. I imagined popping in the disk, downloading the day1 patch and playing throughout most of the night together. Unfortunately it seems Gears has a different plan, as we're now three hours deep into a 54gb download for my disc based game. Let this serve as a warning to anyone considering buying physical.
Also, anyone have any idea how to circumvent this? It's incredibly frustrating, even with a very good internet connection (downloading at 16MBps, pretty much as fast as steam)
