Now imagine a million plus people getting it at the same time. I'm sure it'll go just fine!

What do you expect? It wasn't as easy as flipping a switch.

Seeing that it takes me upwards of two hours to download a gig on XBL on a 50/25 connection, I'd be willing to bet they're absolutely full of shit. Xbox Live has always been laughably slow at downloading anything.
It's ok. You can play your PS4 while you wait.
speedtest.net has it at 15.09Mb/s

How can you possibly estimate the DOWNLOAD TIME?! Maybe installation time as that should be fixed but this is completely meaningless. There's no way to know when connection speeds and bandwidth varies so drastically

What about people with extremely slow internet? Hours?
Just imagine a family getting one for Christmas and having to wait forever just to use the damn thing.

Let it install while browsing Gaf! No problems.
He said they're "finalizing the details", which in Microsoft speak means that maybe it's 5 minutes, maybe it's 20 minutes, maybe it'll be delayed, maybe they'll patch it in parts, maybe they'll decide to add more things to the patch at the last moment, maybe they'll remove the patch because it has a bug in it, maybe they'll change the patch after complaints, maybe they'll decide the patch is the wrong way to implement it
but it's part of their vision

At least the real Azure's first test (if large file). If it fail, then MS really lucky that didn't go for 24 hours DRM. it will be very nightmare.

That's the download, what about the install?
And let's not forget that servers will be hammered throughout launch week.

i've less and it's just fine.
Every launch game should have the update on the disk, so there will be as little network congestion as possible, so when the console finally goes online, most of the people with disk games will be able to just pass a few kb's and be done, leaving the majority of the online updaters to those that are getting their games digitally. It would alleviate so much pressure
But it's not going to be ready before the games go gold, so yeah. That's just going to be so fun...

Average connection speed on speedtest.net is kinda bullshit since people going on speedtest are likely people who have high-bandwidth connections and want to make sure they're getting what they're paying for.
It takes you 2 hours to download 1GB at 50megs down? Uh, you might want to check your setup, something is wrong. I have 30megs down and can download 1GB on Xbox Live in roughly 5-10 mins.
