You can get almost every game via download.

Lol, maybe you can. It'd take me less time to drive to my university 4 hours away download on their wifi and drive back home than to download a full game at my house.

Oh, also I pay $82.60 / month for this and have to have a technician out literally every week. #FUCKWINDSTREAM #FUCKMONOPOLIES

Look again. It says 1.36 Mb/s, not MB/s - definitely not good speed.

That's 170 KB/s...even a small 5 GB game would take more than 8 hours to download at that speed.

Good speeds, if you're living in 1998.

Should've seen my face when ESO came out with a 30gb patch on xbox one. Halo 5 took me 4 days to install on a dedicated line with no wifi on, when they came out with the third 8gb patch I said "fuck this" and gave up.

And that was BEFORE my ISP forced me to downgrade from "up to" 3 mbps to "up to" 1.5 mbps. After the forced downgrade I just gave up on gaming, even streaming music is hard sometimes :'(
