It is hard to say, most content or updates are usually small in size. Around about 30-50MB but i have come across things in the 700MB+ region. Just depends on the game i guess.

I personally dont use it that often, but if you queue you downloads and use all your ADSL international bandwidth, you still left with 30 Gig local to download a shedload (on my dobroadband 3 for example). So you dont have to buy additional local bandwidth. Just wait til you run out of international.

This is for PSN downloads, but can you play online on local servers?

I second that question. Because if you could you set ur PS3 to dial/connect ur to ur local only account and ur pc to dial/connect international one...? If the modems in bridge mode. If I'm wrong let me know.

Nice guide. My brother will be pleased to hear this cause he wants to download some stuff from PSN. Now he can do it without using his 1GB international cap

I sincerely doubt you can play online as most of the online servers are based outside SA, as for the PSN network it has a mirror of some sort in SA thats makes it possible to download from it using your local only account.

Can a avid online user please correct me if i am wrong...
