    Holy !!!!
    Well, glad I still have 240GB space on my hard drive.

    Edit: Do you have to download 6GB of crap or are more than 14GB of stuff included in the DVDs?

    Yeah definitely over 20GB's - 23,000+ MBs according to the one screen prior to installation

    great for you guys, I have a bandwidth cap of 20gb a month, and I can't buy it on stores here, since nobody sells games around here anymore, only for consoles. Do steam have a download manager where I can stop it and then it resumes?

    Yeah its standard in steam it will resume. And you can back up your games so you wont have to do it again.

    as said above, you can pause and resume.

    also, if you have a friend who downloads it, you can back it up, and use his backup to install the game. you'll be able to play, so long as you have bought NTW, but you dont need to download it that way
