It's places like this that make me hate the thought of a digital future.

I am in Canada and on a metered connection. We however, between the hours of 2am to 8am get the ability to download anything and not have it count against my connection.

Last night I went to bed at 1am and set Gears of War 4 to download on the store. I woke up at 11am ( I was apparently tired) and woke up all excited to play my new game. I do this with steam all the time and have downloaded games equal in size to gears at least 5 different times now.

......The game was sitting at 35gigs of 66 downloaded.........

So, i sighed and decided to let my cap take a hit this month and keep letting the download run. Fast forward another 6 hours and i'm FINALLY at 60 of 66 gigs downloaded.

Then my store app freezes........

Trying everything else i could think of first I eventually just restarted my computer, hoping to clear the problem.

When I get back to my store, the 60 gig download is gone and the store starts the download all over again from scratch.

Dear Microsoft,

Get Fucked

Currently right now im sitting on an I7-3770, 16gb of DDR3 Ram, and a GTX 970.

I keep looking at new processors and I can't seem to see much of a speed difference. I'd like to upgrade if I knew it was worth it, but at this point it just seems like I'd be throwing my money in a hole for minimal performance return.

@bollard: Fair enough, but so far I quite enjoy windows 10. You just gotta know how to turn off all the monitoring stuff. After that it runs great and is pretty much windows 7.

So whats the point in owning one of these if you have a beefy PC? I was just holding onto mine to play gears and the other exclusives, but apparently they are all coming to PC.

Every time this happens I consider it a giant middle finger to the publishers that refused to put money into these great ideas, and that makes me extremely happy.

Yep, I'd never gotten the chance to play this back in 1998. So far I'm struggling to see what makes it so cool other then the nifty art style.

I really really wanted to like this game, But so far the puzzles are so obtuse that I don't know if I can keep going. I've had to look at a walk through 5 times already in the first 3 hours. Every time I read it I tend to shake my head and wonder how the hell I was suppose to know how to do any of that. I really wish they had added in some kind of mild hint system instead of being stuck in the dark all the time.

That being said the game looks great and the asetetic is clearly something unique and amazing. But, in the end this game has the same problem that a lot of things made by Tim Schafer do. All style and very little substance. Sad Day.
