Gosh, it's not so bad being wrong when I'm corrected by Chris himself. That was an honor.
I thought it was too much of a coincidence that both Darwinia and Uplink involved a virus and that Darwinia was based off a server in Uplink. I thought that Darwinia was the moment Revelation hit the Darwin server. But I was wrong.
However, note that he never said anything about whether or not the next game will be Uplink 2. He's said before that his next game should be an easy guess based on the pattern set in the past and the fact that he started making it right after Uplink. The pattern has been creating games off of existing Uplink servers. Unless someone can think of another Uplink server that could make for a good game, I still predict that it will be Uplink 2, only they'll probably make drastic changes to the gameplay, not just better graphics and a more intuitive UI. Multiplayer maybe.
Are there any other servers in Uplink that would make for a good game? What else could possibly fit the pattern?
BTW, if Uplink takes place after Darwinia, then what happened to the Darwinians that launched off into space (the internet)?
