Free game?

Postby oRCeN » Sat Aug 11, 2007 12:46 am

Heres the deal, I bought a full, legit copy of Defcon, the one with the black CD, white text/world outlines. Somehow when I first installed it on my PC, it also installed the full version of Uplink (NOTE: not the demo). Now im trying to install the game on my laptop and Defcon installs ok but I can only get the demo version of Uplink on my laptop. Was I meant to get the full version on my PC or was it a bug?

Not complaining, just wondering if I can have Uplink on my laptop too :)

I'm pretty sure that Defcon only has the demo of Uplink on it, not the full version.

I believe the new retail release includes Uplink free (EDIT: see here). However, I've no idea what would cause the demo vs. full version issue.

I think on the Defcon CD there is Uplink demo and there is a second CD with Uplink full.
