Rating:8.5
I am a fan of the original X-COM, and I am enjoying this "reboot".
As I stated, I am a fan of the original series. Firaxis and 2K did an awesome job in the re-imagining of this game. There are a couple of things I miss from the original. Being unable to sell items you have built, not... Read Full Review

I no like
This game is good or great or even a masterpiece, but I never liked management games. In the demo this game tricked me into thinking that it's a tactical combat game but in the full version I was in for a surprise - most... Read Full Review

The old game is a fantastic piece of gaming goodness, the new one not so great.
Now, don't get me wrong, for it is not the original game that came out by the Gollop Brothers back in the year 1994, but still it retains a sense of why computer games are written, although I wonder how they think nowada... Read Full Review

A challenging and addicting turn based strategy game.
I liked Xcom Enemy Unknown a lot. I thought the turn based strategy concept was executed well and added to the addictive nature of the gameplay. The base building and squad selection was also a smart feature that helped ... Read Full Review

Combat mechanics and physics : broken. Good if you're up for a brainless turn-based + base management
Started out quite well, I'm a sucker for turn-based squad combat with great base management behind. Didn't play the original X-com, I could smell the oversimplification trend affecting this remake... but it was alright.... Read Full Review

X-Com simplifies many aspects of the originals, but this works both for and against it.
The X-Com series is still fondly remembered as one of the best Turn Based Strategy/Tactical series for the PC, despite being over 20 years old. Firaxis made an attempt at returning to this series and bringing the many ad... Read Full Review

What a Waist!
This is undoubtly the worst DLC in history. Its almost as bad as the game. I just cant believe that these gaming blogs gave X-com the ratings it did. The DLC is a almost a carbon copy of the game. It adds nothing to the ... Read Full Review
