Well, assuming the d/l is EXACTLY 250 MB, and all is clear from your line, and theirs, thus, you get precisely 64kbit (8kb/sec) then it would take 8.88888888(infinite) hours. If it is 200MB, it would take 7.11111111111 hours, so around 7hours and some minutes. I don't know the exact d/l size, but imagine it somewhere inbetween, so you D/l speed would theoretically be somewhere inbetween.

160000MB*8/64kbps=20000seconds
that's a bit less than 6 hours. Well, truth is it'll take very much longer since there are about zillion people trying to pull the game out the very instant it becomes available. Matrixes servers can send only so much data out Image
