Well, I decided to buy the Black Ops 3 bundle or whatever today for the Xbox 360 because I'm too lazy to drive to Gamestop.

The download is so broken and is super slow. I have very good internet too, so I know it's not my problem.

For some reason, my console just keeps randomly disconnecting from Xbox Live (which it never did before I tried to download the game) and I have to periodically check and restart the Xbox to continue the download.

Microsoft needs to step up their game

if it's that bad, get a refund, microsoft updated their policy that before 30 days of digital downloading a game you can get a full refund if it has any problems

I appreciate the replies, but everything is fine, it's just very aggravating. Instead of walking off and doing something else, I have to be constantly checking to make sure it's still downloading.

Just a tad bit annoyed that I did the digital download route to save time instead of driving to an actual store, but it appears I was wrong haha.

They stopped supporting a lot of features on 360 so i would recommend going for an xbox one if you have the money and such. But yes that is also a really weird and unfortunate problem you are having which indeed does need to be addressed but it might not even be the download, might be something on your side.

Honestly I just don't want an Xbox One. I'm mainly a PC gamer, I just like using the controller for COD. I don't think it's anything on my side, but it certainly could be!

How about you look at your stuff first before blaming Xbox lol. Mostly likely it's on your end

Well it is the 360.. you shouldn't expect it to be that fast for a console that is over a decade old
