Introversion Software's strategy hit, Defcon, is now seeing a retail release alongside Uplink.

Great stuff - Uplink was one of my very favourite games ever made, it was just an awesome blend of puzzle, story and a little bit of sillyness. Phenomenal game, well worth a purchase.

And me. Except my copy of Uplink is just the 'normal' one.

Always wanted to play Defcon - never wanted to use my credit card on Steam.

I'll be buying it, despite having bought Defcon already.

Besides which, £20-£30 is nothing when it comes down it it, especially if it's supporting such a small group as Introversion, they deserve the money IMO.

Great news for those of us that dont have a credit-card.

Steam now supports payments over paypal ya know. Pretty handy if you already have an account

On another note, neat, I actually saw a Darwinia box in the shop the other day, almost bought it too.
