I finished pre-loading mine off Steam. I was surprised, it didn't take as long as I thought it would. I kinda wish I picked it up a the store instead, but I hate having to go to the store. I like to play as soon as I can, or as soon as it comes out. Alas! I must work that day, but it's an early shift so I'll be able to play that night.

Upon installing the game, 16GB (compressed and decompressed files) may be deleted from the hard drive. Please make note of where the compressed and decompressed files are being saved on your hard drive in order to later locate these temporary files for removal.

I am getting mine from the store, so I have no idea where it puts the files. I would imagine the files for deleting will be the ones that are on your PC now, and have not installed the game just yet. Once it installs it will most likely put the game on your C drive in the steam folder.

Just finished the Single Player today... It's the best SP in the entire Call of Duty franchise, imo. Incredible story, and with a nice twist in the end. And it's more than the same old, "Stop the communists before they destroy America and take over the world!". Because it tells that story in a much more mature and complex way. Not just some wacked-out communist Soviet bastard who is making secret WMDs. The conspiracy in this story is so riveting and well-structured. Hats off to Treyarch for a master piece of a Campaign. The twist in the end is the best part, after you beat the game. Can't tell, though. It's a secret. And the multi-player is also well done. Of course, Treyarch didn't need to do much. IW has pretty much taken care of the multi-player elements. Treyarch just added a few new details, such as the ranking system, and weapons. I think the online will be even better knowing we have full control of our servers again, plus zombies and co-op. All I gotta do is fix my little video problem as well as Treyarch fixing the lag issues, and this game will be fantastic!
