The original was badass ... I don't have to say much but these few words : Research, Sectoid, Funding, City Invasion, Crashing UFOs, Interrogations, Ranks, etc...
But don't get me wrong, I'm not here to talk to you about that classic, but the remake. And by remake, I'm not talking about failed attempt by a third small party copying the game but changing the graphics. I'm talking about a BIG remarke , funded by no one but 2k Games !
" 2K pumped all the money and resources needed to make its XCOM remake a triple-A, multiplatform release, developer Firaxis has said. "
Firaxis will be remodeling and improving everything you know about this game, and it wont be a stupid (excuse my opinion here) FPS based in the 50s. We're talking Geoscape again with bases you have to manage the staff , inventory , the funding from the country you're defending, developing weapons, etc..
