5 Stars is not enough!!!, March 30, 2008 Reviewer: Dakota Brown from Bloomington, Indiana USA
2 of 2 people found this review helpful Uplink: Hacker Elite is a very well made game. It has all the realistic features of a real modern day hacker, twisted around with a fun, and exciting storyline. Start off as a hacker who is ready for trouble and work your way up in ranks and hack some particulary troublesome servers until you become an Elite Hacker. And even when you achieve the utmost top status, the fun is not over. So put your skills to the test with this nerve-wracking and edge-gripping game and you will burn the hours away in a more interesting way.

A masterpiece, January 04, 2008 Reviewer: Dakota Brown from Bloomington, IN USA
4 of 4 people found this review helpful Uplink is a truly awesome game. I have looked all over Google for good,fun hacking simulation games. Most of them cost money but are not worth what they cost. This game is definitely worth the cost. i am not currently allowed to buy anything off the internet and have only tried the trial a few times on different computers. But the stuff i did play was extremely fun, and whipped the hour trial by extremely fast. This is a good game to play if you just want to have some fun. i do not promote hacking, and i think this game would help real hackers stay out of trouble. In general this game is a masterpeice, is a lot of fun, and definitely worth the low cost of 20 dollars.
