    Default Are Steam games supposed to take like two days to download?

    'Cause Team Fortress 2 is taking like two days to download.

    EDIT: Wait no I lied. It wasn't downloading overnight.

    Uhh. Sorry.

    Back in my day you went to a store and bought the game and brought it home.

    Thankfully, my day didn't last long.

    When you bought the games in a store here, you had the chance that the disc was completely busted. You seriously had to come back with your father before you had a refund (was 9 back then xD).
