I just spent the last three days downloading two years worth of updates for Aion (9GB or so) on my super awesome $43/month "rural broadband internet" (Motorola canopy wireless). Cost twice as much as the 28.8 dial up alternative, but downloads about 14 to 20 times faster on average.
Sad part? I have cable TV and there is DSL a Km away, but the cable/telcos are too cheap to extend the services. It just goes right on by us down the highway...
Saddest part? I can play Planetside with approx 80 average ping
or I can use voice chat. lol... one time when a guildy and I were two manning an old 25 man raid in WoW, I was hearing his vent instructions a good 10 minutes behind when he said them.
I loves my physical media and my affordable house with a big yard!
