Judging from your last thread, I'm going with pebkac.

Wrong, and not helpful anyway.

To answer the OP:
The problem with so many people buying shit in mass quantities over the past weekend is the servers really are too damn busy. And I can only recommend you keep checking back, like once an hour, until you download and can play your games.
Same thing happens anytime they have a major sale.
