“First impressions no longer begin at ‘Start Game’; they begin at ‘Downloading 0%.’ Just like how ‘stream instantly’ redefined music and video, ‘play instantly’ may soon become the norm—not the novelty.”

As a passionate gamer for over 25 years now, I want to play my desired games as soon as they are available. But nothing makes me feel more uncomfortable than waiting for the download to end, while my friends are already playing. Games are made for being played a lot - and downloads are made for finishing fast!"
