While waiting for my 20 minute download (yup, only 20 minutes!) I decided to mess with the demo and such. All I can say is WOW! This looks really sharp! And yes, I made it do every possible form of weather not possible in real life
About the link, I was given one that was different than what was included in the emails (due to the fact that my email just had my code only from that "early purchase.") I'm going to respect the NL team 100% of the way though and not give that link out, not even PM. I'm sure once the initial hype settles, download speeds will increase.
What was frustrating: I was downloading it at work earlier (and going to put the file onto a disc for backup purposes) and when I was on the final stretch, the download cut off. But my connection speed at work is rather...slow...to say the least.
