It does its usual thing when i hit 'play' but then it just sits there and doesn't go to the game. when i check the Dev Console, It looks like it's trying to download reasources but failing.

[13:52:26 WARN]: Couldn't download http://resources.download.minecraft.net/27/27fcacc68bb77f01b23ea9c9d36d9018f8509cdf for job 'Resources'
