None of these videos play in either Chrome or Firefox when the HD option is selected unless Streaming playback is used. Attempts to download the HD version in Chrome don't work but it does in Firefox. Playing or downloading any other quality/playback option works fine on both browsers. The specific error message I get in Chrome when attempting to download a video is this:

The webpage at

http://v.giantbomb.com/2015/01/29/vf_dyinglight_coop_ql_01292015_4000.mp4

might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.

Error code: ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH

These are the only videos I've seen with this problem. I have not checked every single video so it's possible some others might have the same problem. Not every recent video has had this issue. For example, Unfinished: Battlefield Hardline Beta 02/03/2015 and Unfinished: Toxikk 02/02/2015 both play and download fine in HD.

I'm using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and both Chrome and Firefox are updated to their latest stable version.

@tinkelp: Interesting. They play in HD fine here on Progressive, Streaming and HTML5. Wondering if we have another Akamai issue.

Just chiming in to say it works for me on Chrome, Mac OS X Yosemite.
