    Mine too, I mean really slow. file size says 2068Mb (2Gb). Its like being on an ancient 14.4 dial-up modem. If it was 28.8, it'd almost be done! I started to d/l yesterday at 4pm. By 7pm it was at 4%, I tried cancelling/restarting but then it was even worse. Trying it today, started at 11am, its now going on 4pm, 31% and says 558 minutes left! My connection is fine. Other downloads are fine. The 2 add-ons I got this morning b4 trying this one were 2gb each & were done in less that 30 min. Then I tried the game update. Ridiculous.

    Servers where probably overloaded when everyone downloaded the large patch at the same time.

This is a general problem with all updates on PS3 games. Really annoying as they all take ages and then timeout sometimes. Not sure it's an EA issue but the Sony team need to fix this.

God dammit this problem still exists, just bought the game and since two days i havent able to download the 2gb patch, they should have split down the file into parts, cant there be a small update instead for people who just want the fixes and not the dlc
