The dl manager is glitchy as hell, and when the game finished downloading it said I had check sum errors so it couldn't update to the latest version. Current version doesn't let me play as I need disc 2...

And now that I deleted it to redo the dl, no games show up that I can install.

Others seem to be having your problem as well.

I give them slack because it is guys doing this for free and worked hard to get MS to finally give it up.

Can anyone else connect to the Mektek website? I can't.

Nope, their website went down early this morning. Too many folks trying to download it at once I think.

Many other sites are blaming mektek like it is a company, it is just a group of guys trying to make it accessible to everyone instead of becoming vaporware.

Blame Kotaku, actually. They posted about the game finally being released and got the Site Kotakilled. Thats what happens when a couple million gamers that read Kotaku all click on the free game link all at once.

It is a subject just about everywhere I post, including places you wouldn't think like gun forums. It is not one site's deal but the fact that the damn game was one of the best of it's day.
