Managed to sort it in the end by running the exe on a different PC to download the files and then transfering them over. Still pretty weird though.

Ok, so I just found out about this piece of genius, but when I try to run it to give it a go, I just get this message saying: 

Failed to Launch
 
Fatal error occured (5): null
Extracting: lwjgl.jar.lzma to lwjgl.jar 

I've tried deleteing the files under appdata and re-launching, as well as reinstalling java, but to no avail.
 
Does anyone have any ideas?

@Devil240Z: Are you getting any beeping noises coming from the motherboard? Or are there any diagnostic LEDs? Does your motherboard have a built in power button (actually on the board)?

Haha, I'd never seen that before. I guess it's because it's a senario everyone would understand, regardless of whether it's an accurate analogy or not.

This is a meme thread and it only has 3 pages of posts? What is this madness?

Are you saying that short campaigns were a problem when they first came into effect, but now that it's become the industry standard, it's ok? If you are, that's like saying it was a problem when the Nazi's invaded France, but after they'd been there for a while it was fine.
Obviously that's a completely different proportion, but you get my point. Something that used to be a big problem when it came into effect doesn't suddenly stop being a problem because it stayed like that.
 
Anyway, personally I don't think short campaigns are neccesarily a bad thing, but having a fleshed out multiplayer component and/or single player replayability is the key for me. Case in point: L4D/L4D2. Short campaigns, but I've clocked up 105 hours of combined gameplay between them.

Why are people still talking to this Hitman guy? :S
It's pretty clear he's a massive (and apparently pretty successful) troll.
Either that or he's the most misguided and naive person I've ever encountered, and is so brainwashed that he will never understand or accept anything anyone says to him that counters his point.
 
Either way, just flag the posts and move on duders.
