Feel sorry for poor gamers who go buy the game, then can’t play it until they download the huge day-1 patch. If day-1 sales were decent, chances are a lot of people are downloading the patch and slowing down servers. That aside, many, many states and counties won’t have super-fast broadband and a 7gb download will take a fair chunk of time to download.

Clearly the switcharoo of graphic styles going for a cel-shading “style” in a poor effort to disguise the God-awful graphics at the last minute will contribute to this as units pressed on disc for distribution physically will have already missed it.
