40x1024=40960 MB:14=2926 Seconds:60=48 Min. Pretty fast, huh?


Internet speed is given in megabits per second (Mb/s) which is an 8th of a megabyte (MB) if you get your internet in megabytes per second you're amazing

8x40x1024=327680 Mb / 14 = 23405.7 Seconds / 60 = 390 minutes = 6.5 hours assuming you get full download speed all the time and even then 14Mb/s is very fast internet.

ZOMG, I would never be able to download any PS3 game, not even a 20 GB one. Belgian internet sucks so hard, I can only download 15GB in a month....
That's more than three months without using internet for anything else if you want to download MGS4. Might be worth it to just buy the game then

Dunno why everyone is worried about game sizes right now, most rips on the shady parts of the inerwebs are like 7-10 GB (please someone correct me if im wrong, but if memory serves well that's how big games are )

Plus who said that through this hacking we'll get pirated games etc etc.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (a 4 hour movie)
Killzone 2 (horrible, just horrible, outsold by ODST in 24 hours)
LittleBigPlanet (a flop, terrible gameplay)
Resistance 2 (lol, really?)
Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time (the 9th Ratchet game in under 7 years)
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 (360 Port)
Resistance: Fall of Man (lol, really?)
Gran Turismo 5 (I'll give you this one)

Your insecurity is showing. To each his own man.

Btw, I added a few notes to your list.

Terrible gameplay? What are you, nuts?!

Not, not at all. And most people who know their platform games agree with me.

Floaty jumping, dull gameplay and more. No amount of window dressing can make up for the fact that underneath all the glitter is one shitty platform game.

I can't speak for all of those games, but at least a few of them:
MGS4: More like 20hrs, not 4. And a movie though it is for about 2/3 of it, it's a GOOD 20 hr movie.
LBP: wut? Great gameplay. Physics are a bit floaty, but it's still quite good.
R&C Future: Yes, there's a lot of games in this series. But it's damn good, regardless of what number in the series it is.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2: Much more than a port. I still can't recommend it, I didn't like it much, but still, it's not merely a port.

But honestly, the best games worth pirating are PSN, PS1 games, and PS2 games on the PS3 systems that will play them. Super Stardust HD, Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy 7-12, Metal Gear Solid 1-3, Pinball Fantasies, Pinball Dreams...

And that's not to mention a few games that are either superior on the PS3 to other versions, such as Batman: Arkham Asylum.

I don't see how it's insecurity to disagree with you, or to attempt to make a point. Additionally, some people don't have a 360, so even multiplatform games could be worthwhile on this.

Here comes the fanboys, have you actually played any of these games, and I can't see any better alternatives for the 360, mainly because they have fuck all exclusives?
You my friend, are shit talking.

And people worrying about size, if you're Internet isn't fast enough or you have a monthly limit, just rent the games / borrow off your friends, rip them and play them, with any luck we will have a External drive aswell.

If you're questioning the fact that internet is given in Mb/s to make it sound bigger then I shall say that it is to my knowledge but its hard to tell from your wording.

Basically: PS3 games are so big that there's no point in downloading cause it will take you all year.

I didn't question you at all.. I just made a statement.
