What site to use to download game patches?

[Reefsmoka]

Hey all,

Just want to know if theres a good universal site to download game patches from? Preferably uk servers as i can imagine some of the patches out there exceed 100mb and downloading from an amercan server isnt really going to be fun!

Steam.

http://www.gamershell.com/

Aye, would second gamershell, a fine site.

Have also found some hard to obtain patches at Softpedia.

I ended up using fileplanet. Not the most ideal site as all the servers seem to be American, I shall try one of your recommendations next time.

Cheers dudes

Well if its STALKER, I recommend looking no further than the STALKER Complete 2009 mod. Not only does it improve on the graphics it fixes all bugs with the game. And there are screens of the next STALKER graphic overhaul in 2012 on the site if you want to see what he has planned.

do you have experience of this patch 1st hand?

Yep, thats what I use.

Tried playing STALKER using the steam auto update and it was crashing like no tomorrow, so I grabbed that instead.
