A third-person, squad-based, tactical game that recounts humanity's first contact with aliens during the Cold War in the 1960s, and the subsequent founding of the XCOM organization.
Eh... I'm not sure. I really enjoyed the earlier coverage where it made the game look like less of a straight up shooter and more like something similar to Bioshock.
Wish they could just have made a new tactical x-com game instead (not that it has to play exactly like the first). The art style look fine but everything else made it look like an really average FPS.
Awesome scenario and art style ... and all of it dragged down by what seems to be utterly forgettable gameplay.
I'm in agreement with this comment. This trailer makes it look like just another run-of-the-mill shooter. Considering the franchise's pedigree, I was hoping for something more.
So the Husks form Mass Effect invaded the world of Tron and returned to destroy earth in the 50s leading to the apocalypse that forced people into underground vaults and caused them to build rapture? It all makes sense now.
