This has not been done as an admission of wrong doing but rather to respect the request for them to be removed by our server admin. It seems the IDSA are interested in Alien Vs Predator which I believe Activision now hold the rights for. I have contacted the IDSA directly regarding the matter and await their response so we can resolve the situation.       We will still be hosting our Xor's which can be found on our Downloads page. - C-GenX • FBA fix: If you were having speed issues with the new FBA, Jan Klaasen recently released a fix for this.
