Holy crap it looked awesome, can't wait for the PC release! I really hope they gave you more options to customize your soldiers than the first one thou,

On a sidenote, while looking at this does anyone else think that a XCom style game set in the Halo universe would perfect for each other? Given the rich Halo universe lore and story telling, added to the combat and management of bases/squads of XCom = probably never gonna happen

Damn it Microsoft/Firaxis, start talking and take my money!

That could be cool.

Mass Effect would also be cool.

Fuck dude, most properties would probably work. XCOM is a blast.

@theht:

Agreed, Firaxis is sitting gold mine right there.

Yep, it looks great. The premise actually seems pretty disturbing.

Also, give me Tetris Tactics. That would totally work, right?

It looked bad.

Edit: Rather, I'm sure it's a fine game. It's just not what I was hoping for.

I really liked the 2012 game, and grew up playing the first three games. I really liked the 2012 game because I felt it honored the first game while adapting t for ,odeon audiences. As much as I liked UFO Defense, I liked Terror From the Deep just as much if not more. This new premise seems boring and more of the same.

Also, wtf everything looks nice and clean under the new alien regime.

Yes going in new directions is bad

terror of the deep was a reskin

Never leave a man (or woman as the case my be) behind!
