Yea! I'm still installing it too and it's been about 2 hours. The game is just ridiculously bloated - says 32GB on the back of the box.
Yes its a very long install but its a huge game. It took me about 2 hours to get the game installed
17.rdbdata and counting..
It took me about 3+ hours.
Yep, about 2 hours solid here too. 2 DVD's and 32 GIGS of hard drive space...I was taken aback by that at first, easily the largest install I have ever seen in my life. Makes you glad we don't have the old 2/ 4X CD-ROMS anymore lol.
Also, (I don't know if this is just me), when I put disk 2 in, the drive did not spin up at all and the HDD was almost completely silent for a LONG time. To the point where I thought the entire install had frozen or something. But eventually I did see that the file names were changing in the window. Anyway, if you notice this, don't panic, it does eventually finish up. But man...best to put in the disks and find something else to do for about 2 hours.
