    Installing Games

    It installs the whole disc only if there are no updates.

    If there are updates then it will pull the updated files off the internet as the game is installed.

    Dead rising 3 for instance downloads 12GB while installing even though the game is only about 20GB on disc.

    So the only time the whole disc is installed without downloading anything is if there are no updates available.

    You can avoid this by disconnecting your console from the internet before installing a disc. This will let the whole disc install without downloading anything. Problem is that next time you connect it will insist on downloading the update anyway.

    You'll have to wait for the game to be delivered mate.

    Where did you order from? No chance it may turn up Monday ?

    Well the good news is it isn't a 20GB update, it's only 15GB. Guess it'll still take a while to update it though.

    Hey Pingu

    You may know this already but if you don't it's handy.

    When you get the game, disconnect from the internet and just install it from the disc.

    Once that's done then go online and when you start the game you'll be prompted for the update.

    Speed things up by only downloading the update and leaving your XBox alone. If you can, try and install it in the morning. There are less people online and it will load faster.

    Hope that helps.
