The tutorial is in the spoiler...

So one of many issues with downloading games are the file size of the download!
One of the easy ways to cut down on parts of the size is to remove a language you dont need/understand.
For example ill be downloading "Call of Duty: Black Ops" for PS3.

IMG #1: As you can see ive already got the torrent for "Call of Duty: Black Ops"

IMG #2: Lets try and locate the languages. Lets open the PS3_GAME folder.

IMG #3: Lets open USRDIR.

IMG #4: Now you can see the languages that came with the game rip. Ive got French and English, i only need English!

IMG #5: Since i don't need French, ill uncheck the box.

Doing that will lower the torrent size so its done sooner and can get installed faster. We took off 4.22GB of data that i dont need, so now the download is 13.8GB instead of 18.0GB!

I hope this has helped you a little bit on how to lower torrent file sizes. If there is a thread which explains this already, then im sorry i reposted.

NOTE: I wont link the torrent, go looking for it :p
