Yup, only america. And considering that America is a big country, the money IV got off it were just as big. I hoped you could get to that on your own. Again, you amaze me with your imbecility.
As for what IV said, I don't really trust them. Of course, they would like to finish the game, you would like to play it, so they said the thing everyone wanted to hear. I don't know if you distinguish the facts from the promises - for you seem not to. Just because IV said that, it doesn't mean it will be possible - and what should they do if that would be true? Sit down and say "sorry guys, we're stopping darwinia at this moment and going back to window cleaning, bye!"? No, they would try to make the game.
As an uplink fan, you should know that trust is a weakness...
America is by far NOT the biggest country in the world. It has a population of ~200million. China, has ~1200million. So go figure how much more money Iv could make there.
Secondly, as Stews pointed out (which you seemed to have nicely missed) SF isn't the sole supplier in the US. And the fact Uplink was on sale for a good year and a bit before Iv signed the dotted line with SF, most Gamers who had heard about Uplink had bought it online (looks at Stews). And the whole news posts from Iv prove what Stews have said. WELL DONE NEWB WHO DOESNT KNOW THE HISTORY OF THIS COMPANY. Etc.
The whole point of signing SF was to get the game into the high street shops where people who hadn't already heard of Uplink could get it.
Iv hasn't lost its income just because SF cant pay at the moment. Its like some guy having an office job, a window cleaning job, and an ebay seller job. One day he gets told he's getting fired from the office. He can still live on the other jobs until he gets a new office job.
Good that you dont want Iv to break up. Well done. But I trust them. If you dont, your choice. But why stick around if you think they aren't gonna finish this game?
DIE STRATERGY FIRST! DIE!!
I say, LIVE SF! LIVE!
