XCOM enemy unknown is great fun.
Before I start I just want to say this is the first XCOM I have ever played, actually, I have never played a turn based shooter until now. XCOM is about an alien invasion on earth, you are the commander of the "XCOM... Read Full Review

Revised
I'm very surprised GS only gave this game an 8.5. It's a tremendous effort and one of (if not the) best game of the year. It's tough, it's unforgiving but it's exactly for this reason that it's so brilliant. You'll bu... Read Full Review

The only thing I am eager for right now in the game industry is more XCOM.
It is amazing that although some truly excellent games have come out the last few years, XCOM, just a simple "lame strategy" game, wound up being one of the ONLY games I have been able to get this excited about in a long... Read Full Review

Very picky gamer here.
First off I just want people to know I lose interest quite quick in games. This did not let me down. If your a fan of MOBA games or any tactics for that matter than this will be for you. Even if you not I bet if you try ... Read Full Review

Difficulty might be a turn-off to some (and a turn-on to others), but you can't deny its replayability.
As a long-time player of the D20 system, as soon as I was shown XCOM:EU I rushed to check it out. I was pleased to see that like some other D20-using games (lookin' at you, Temple of Elemental Evil), there was an "Ironma... Read Full Review

A remake with Less, add a twist and add stability issues.
The Character special abilities are the twist, while useful in game play they do not improve the game. Less seems to be what the developers had in mind little more than 1 machine gun, 1 hand gun, and 1 heavy weapon f... Read Full Review
