That's a shame, I think R2 only had like a 50mb file it had to set up for some data. It was kinda the first game in Sony's first party initiative to have games with no installs to show you don't need to compensate for Blu Ray's slower read speeds.
MAG had a similar day one patch, because, like Resistance, they ran a beta almost up to the release of the game so they had tons of stuff to fix before launch.
SO HOW IS IT?
