Must be a good deal - their site is crawling - it's taken me more than 10 minutes just to register

You don't have to install their download manager, if you choose not to then you will get a page which says:

"Unable to install the FilePlanet Download Control!
Possible Reasons...

The control requires Internet Explorer 5 or higher running on Windows 9x/NT4/2000/XP
If you are running NT, XP or 2000 you must have Administrator privileges
Your Internet security settings do not allow ActiveX plugins to be downloaded
You declined to install the control on the previous screen
Click here to continue to the public queue!"

If you click that link then it takes you to a webpage where you can wait a while, and then directly download the setup.

Just waited 24minutes as I was in a queue...number 71/72....it then said that file was ready to download, pressed the button and it then said that the server was busy and I was put back into the queue! This has happened 4 times now, so I will give it a miss I think!

(You need to supply an email address for the registration code for the game)

Good find...if only I had more time to waste waiting for my turn....LOL

I've not played it but It's probably not really worth the time to download it.

The score on metacritic is 45/100 so nothing drastic missed by not getting it.


EDIT: Ah beat me to it =D

I have found in the past that the Fileplanet queues are shorter in the mornings - probably because it's night time for all the Americans.

not worth jumping through all the hoops to get a game that is probably no good and loads of spam!
Voted cold

Try putting the code in the online activation box (one at the very top), I accidently put into the offline first.
