Default still getting the press
after all the time its been out, especially for a rather small distributor, SE4 is still hitting some headlines:

but for some reason, their 'buy now' link goes to chips and bits. didn't Shrap say that they were the sole distro and there was no known contract with C&B?

Well, if you go to www.ugtz.com, they have a top selling games list from Chips & Bits. And SEIV has been been in the top 5 or so for months. For a while, C&B even had a banner ad featuring SEIV.
