![]() Can’t say how long thay takes, but saves hours doing the above for initial install at least.īelow that comment are dozens of others thanking the poster for the information. Then reconnect Internet and download latest update. It went from 6 hours estimated to being done within 45 minutes. ![]() Eject and reinsert disc and let it install. Here it is in full:ĭelete what’s downloaded so far, disconnect the Internet from the PS5. That didn’t apply to me, but what caught my eye was the top-rated comment. I was mostly sure (and more so desperately hopeful) that the fault wasn’t on my end, so I kept searching.Įventually, I found another Reddit post from a few days ago that mentioned Gran Turismo will take a long time to download for those with slow internet. My point is, I don’t really know what the ‘norm’ is, but I know that 5+ hours is ludicrous given my internet speed and a few previous downloads. In fact, I haven’t even had a gaming console since the PS2, and that barely had any internet functionality. I don’t have much history with game downloads being an issue. ![]() I run speed tests, restart my router, update the DNS settings on the PS5 to use Google’s DNS addresses all to no avail. Eventually, I start doubting myself and worry that it may be a problem on my end despite my internet seeming fine. I see posts where people with slow internet complain about how long it’s going to take once they eventually get the game, but none that complain about it in real-time as they’re downloading it. This is an outlier, considering no game had previously taken this long to download even games with file sizes larger than 100GB. However, it taking this long is obnoxiously long. Initially, I thought it was understandable that it might take a while. Despite having gigabit internet and hard-wiring the PS5, the game is still not finished. In fact, it’s at 80% and estimates that it’ll take another 4 hours. Well, five hours later and it’s still not done. “That’s understandable it’s almost 100GB,” I say. I unpack the game and toss the disc in, and it starts downloading. I even pick up a new DualSense controler in the ‘Galactic Purple’ colorway. I’ll just return the pre-order once it finally arrives.įinally, I have it in my hands after safely making it home. Eventually, it said it won’t get here ’til Thursday.Īs ridiculous as it is that you can pre-order a game and it’s likely to not show up on time, I still got a copy today by just going in-store and buying one per my girlfriend’s recommendation. The afternoon came around and it was the same story. It said “Arriving Today: March 4th,” but it wasn’t making any progress. Today finally came, and I constantly checked Target’s site to see when it’d show up. Patiently, I counted the days until I could re-kindle some moments from my childhood. ![]() I pre-ordered Gran Turismo 7 for the PS5 last month. ![]()
