The levels you DL from the net take about a minute (much faster than actual game updates and system updates). I'm not sure you ever really download them to your HDD, I think they are just loaded into your system memory. Then again, I may be wrong on this detail.

The gameplay in LBP has always reminded me of Yoshi's Island, what with the floaty jumps and slippery-looking physics. Cameron's observation that one of the levels reminded him of the Poochy level in YI reinforced that notion. It looks fun. I have to wonder, though, just how long it takes to download a level. People are adding custom assets, right? Surely these levels must take a good chunk of hard drive space. Is it anywhere near as bad to wait for as the system updates?
