Can we do anything to speed it up?
Or what can be taking it so long?

Update files for fortnite can be quite large the time will just depend on your internet speed. Wired will be much faster than Wifi.

The skins will be kept once he signs into his epic games account. If its not installing it might be worth restarting thel xbox. The update file should be saved so you wont have to download it again

I'd imagine how all profit is measured.

revenue received -  the cost.
That is the easy bit! I meant what do they class as an entertainment product! Surely Brian Epstein made more from his product, for example.

Really looking forward to Jurassic World Evolution, initial gameplay it looks fantastic though unless they keep it interesting with DLC or modding then it's longevity could be hampered.

No real surprise there. It has consistently evolved itself to online players to keep it fresh and interesting. Loved the most recent update Hotring Stock Car Racing.

They'll do very well to match half of the overall appeal and success in the next version

I brought up this exact point to my friends when talking about it earlier. RDR 2 will hopefully be a great game, but what do Rockstar do for GTA 6? How do you follow this level of success? The expectations will be through the roof

The new Far Cry game is out today. Looks pretty good. 

Storyline/Main missions are supposed to be a let down but the pick up and play exploration bits are mean't to be very good. 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.
