I never understood why they didn't create Darwinia 2 and create more of the awesome gameplay that made them famous in the first place. The need to go on and do different things is what hurt them. I don't care to fight others, so Multiwinia didn't interest me at all. And DefCon... Cripes, they recreated a game that can't be 'won' from a movie 2 and a half decades old. Even Uplink was better than those 2.
And now they're working on 'their most ambitious project yet'... Do they ever learn?
Don't get me wrong. I'm hoping it's awesome. But in the meantime, they should produce some money off something they -know- is awesome. Darwinia+ was apparently supposed to do that, but re-releasing the same old thing on a console isn't quite the right approach. Releasing a sequel could have been.
