Help with NXE download

[EricRyan34]

This morning when I turned on my 360 to download the NXE, the download starts and after a couple minutes stops saying "Update could not download"

Has anyone else had this issue??

I did the first time I tried to download it. I just figured it was something interfering with my connection. Try restarting the download and see if that helps out.

Is this what you did and it worked? Because i tried 3 times with the same result. hmmm

There are hundreds of thousands of people trying to download it right now so it's bound to get congested. Just give it awhile and try again.

It's probably gonna still be terrible when I try later tonight, meh.

Sony appears to be celebrating the NXE release, too:

Ya, the servers are probably getting hammered right now. Im one of the lucky ones that got to download it early. If I were you I would wait until tomorrow or Friday. If you insist on trying to get it today I would try later tonight when either people have already got it or people are in bed. Just a thought!

woke up 9est and grabbed the nxe just fine...I think the 10 minute wait for the install was for that intro video...hahahaha

Yeah it just took two tries to fully download. Mine was up and running in maybe 10 minutes?

They annouced that it may not work for everyone just yet....give it a little time and you will be up and running.
