looks like The Bureau is going more towards a 'real time' game. I'm sure many butts will be hurt about that

The original was just greatness personified. The new one is ehhh. Repetitive as hell. A lot of elements from the old one aren't there. It looks a lot better, but the execution was mediocre to me.


Eh, for what it was, I was pleased with it. It had to be simpler to appeal to the console crowd. I'm hoping we get a full-fleshed out XCOM game coming up here soon.

Yea I feel you. I played it on my pc, if I was on the xbox, I probably would have felt differently.

I still havent touched this game, sitting on my PS3 hard drive.

I'm an OG X-Com and TFTD veteran, so I already know what this game is hitting for.

They got tentaculats in this game? (zombie turning aliens) :why: I hated those things.
Bad memories of playing X-Com on the pc as a yute late at night.

I don't think they have that exact alien (I never played the OG), but they have aliens that turn humans into zombies, and aliens that can straight up mind control humans

XCOM: Enemy Unknown's expansion, Enemy Within, will be issued as DLC on PC and Mac for $30, but the only way to get it on consoles is through a new Commander's Edition – a retail re-release that includes the XCOM: Enemy Unknown game, the Slingshot and Elite Soldier add-ons, plus the Enemy Within expansion.

The reason for issuing the Commander's Edition is because Enemy Within is simply too large a file to patch into the console game as DLC. "For the expansion on the PC, it was fairly straightforward," Garth DeAngelis, senior producer at Firaxis Games, said during aPAX Prime interview. "But when it came to the consoles, it was too big. If we wanted to deliver the same content to the console players, we had to do it this way as a standalone expansion on a disc. We couldn't simply just patch it in."

PC Gaming :blessed:
