I guess that depends on how many people are trying to download it at that time. Often when I've downloaded stuff from marketplace the speeds haven't exactly been stellar. Not too bad if you set it off overnight though as you'd expect it to be done by morning.

I was reading your original post in which it says

The game will be available as an Xbox Original title on Monday, October 20 in the US, at a cost of 1200 Microsoft Points (roughly £10) with a European release date unconfirmed.

Re: San Andreas coming to XBLA

Oh yeah, forgot about that link. I'd like it to be added for the UK ASAP, SA is a great game.

Edit; my mates are saying it's been added for the UK.

---------- Post added at 17:58 ---------- Previous post was at 16:51 ----------

It's there for us! I got it downloading now.

Re: San Andreas coming to XBLA

Anyways, I downloaded it - great game, the load time is crazily fast. Only problem is though, the cheats that use the D-pad don't work.
