Power almost as addictive as the original

Bin Xcom-fan from the start, and was captivated by the first two XCOM Games, back in the 90s.
I did not know what was expected of XCOM, and (another version) was tremendously excited in 2013 already in the first Preview. It may not be quite reached the depth of the original, yet it is truly captivating and can be addictive ... have that weekend for the first time for a long time almost played through the night, as even then the original.

There are some changes, however, make sense. One or the other may miss that one can not, as before, build more bases (it can be but almost everywhere satellites designed to monitor use). Money is tight and it is worth quite early and persistently expand its satellite network so as not to lose important sponsors.

A great asset should be recorded at the fair. Yes, the game is sometimes difficult, sometimes you aliens grinds his teeth, when, once again shoots past the half team, however, take (the shoot by the way sometimes be wrong, do not worry). But scenes like in the original game, in which an alien out of the dark cross with an incredible shot kills with the map a team member, it no longer exists. It had at that time might be used, the fair still was not but, and here something does not appear.
The extension that is part of it, adds Mechwarrior Suites that you explore and for which one has to collect raw material in missions. The haste with which this should be done, adds a new component to the missions, and the suits are great improvements ... so you can see the aliens panic or tackle stronger enemies.
Going with five soldiers in these suits in the fight, the fun factor increases again.

Although this edition is often criticized ... in my view, as a fan of the original, has really brought a lot of fun, exciting hours to me this version, and whether the bar of the original and particularly the falsification through rose-colored glasses, and given the easy other times can be achieved ever that everyone is happy, is highly questionable for me. This remake anyway has me more than impressed, and even if there are changes, many of which are also improvements!
