i started to care the moment it was announced

Same here. Been a huge X-COM fan since the original, and 2k Marin's bastardization of the series broke my heart. I'm very eager to play Enemy Unknown because it looks like a proper X-COM title.

Great to see a true remake of such a classic, instead of turning it into a stale, boring first person shooter.

Now, if only someone would take notice and do the same for Syndicate...

EA listen to their consumers? ha ha ha

There's more chance of Activision giving out free COD DLC :D

The new Syndicate game is Syndicate in name only :(

XCOM: Enemy Unknown rebooted the series back in 2012, and has since inspired numerous new strategy game series to be born.

If someone gets into this I'd recommend getting the enemy within version. It's got all the dlc included so it's the better version. Wish the author would've atleast mentioned it. I didn't see it.

Fantastic game though. Xcom 2 is top notch also. I've spent countless hours in these games.

Excellent game.
Played to death on PS3 years ago.

What other games were inspired by this game?

JL2930924d ago

Gears Of War Tactics, Phoenix Point. Many others.

shinoff2183924d ago

Phoenix point if I remember was created by the original xcom developer or something to that affect. I did try gears tactics some months ago and I just couldn't get into it. It's probably just me

JL2930923d ago (Edited 923d ago )

It was, but it was really closer to the newer XCOM than the older ones. Gears Tactics was okay but was hard to get into knowing there probably wont be a sequel.

Ten Best Tactical Mobile Games

There are few things more gratifying in gaming than skillfully turning the tide of a conflict. And few genres provide as many opportunities to abruptly reverse the odds via skill and forethought as tactical strategy.
