I bought Grand Theft Auto V a day before release, and what should had taken hours to download..
Let's just say that everyone else was playing while I still downloaded the game...
It's really nice to be able to download it as soon as possible, for we do not all have the same downloading speed.

Scholdarr.452, imagine you would have to download 60GB when everyone is downloading the day-one patch needed.
Of course pre-loading matters. I was downloading the 60GB when everyone was downloading the day one-patch.. I was downloading 6kb per second for quite a while, and that is way slower than the normal 3000kbps.
