In PC, we normally put our download list in BT and download it 24/7 (I'm not sure you guys, but at least me yes). How about 360? Do you switch on your 360 for just to download trailer, demo, ...?

my answer is: YES!

especially those with sizes of 1GB..takes more than 12 hours to finish it, so i just leave it on b4 going to sleep and by the morning it's done!

however, i personally think the x360 could use a new update to allow us to pause all downloads. i hate it when i login, then if i go live gaming, the download stops and it sometimes corrupts the download. if we could pause all items in the queue, it would be better. don't u think?

Yes you are right. I think that it will still pause the download as long as the "Stopped download" message is not shown out. Sometimes strange that the download will not go down to 0%. sometimes go down 15% and let you download d 15% again

Me .. Nope.

I only download whatever I like and is worth my effort to download it.

Microsoft Points is expensive..hope can trade wif bonuslink points

yalorr, heavy weapon requires 800MS points..

When i first got the set.. i download a few demo's
then found out.. damn its not worth my time..
better just go and buy some games..
Its just to sickening to wait for it to download.. and when i play
GOW even offline mode they cancel my download.. that sucks...

akuma, that shouldn't be the case.

However I do agree that it takes too long to download certain items (Crackdown, j00 suck!) and now with the ROD issue I'm damn scared to leave it on any longer than I have to...

well i left my set on for more than 12 hours just to download crackdown and still it only got up to 74%. i continued the next night after givin my set a full day's rest and then it finished when i woke up for work. sempat play demo b4 go to work summore~

leaving the set in an air conditioned room or a place where there's a fan to cool it down would help. so far no problems with my set yet, and God please let it be tht way till Xbox1080 comes out.

OT, I know, but I have read cases of A/C causing condensation in the 360 when you turn the A/C unit off. I guess Malaysian climate doesn't really suit the 360.

hmm..what bout other gamers who also don't have their a/c turned on 24/7? any experience of console breaking down?

what about those gamers in europe/america? come summer, i guess they'll be playing it in an air conditioned room right?

what i do know is tht condensation will likely be the problem when you put the console in a place where the difference in temperature is EXTREME. like, putting it in a freezer, or out in the cold where it's almost sub zero temperatures. also, places where it is dramatically cold would cause condensation. however, i don't think air conditioned rooms will give condensation problems, but please correct me if i'm wrong.

i put my set on an open table, a lot of space all around for ventilation and i normally switch on the AC when i want to play games. hopefully this isn't a life-shortening lifestyle for my 360.

Speaking of downloads, I can only download at 40 - 50 KB at any time.

Downloading on the desktop can go up to 150++. Is that normal for you guys too?

I'm on Streamyx 1MB package....

Different servers, different speeds.

i download wheni have the mood.. sometimes when im not playing anything
ill keep my 360 on until it finishes

For me, morning download is faster. at nite cannot run at all...

Best downloads I believe would be during the weekdays evenings. Not many streamyx users with the Americans sleeping.

normally, about after midnite..about 2-3am i could get faster speeds..this is thru the asian server la..

i got a problem with my xboxlive... once my profile is signed in and it wont connect to xboxlive and i have to select "connect to xboxlive" then it will connect and if i start games it will automatic sign in to xboxlive
