 Re: Let's Play X-COM: UFO DEFENSE - Captain's Log Wayyyyy too short, especially given the size of it. Music's nice and the gameplay was decent though.

Re: Let's Play X-COM: UFO DEFENSE - Captain's Log Quote: "I enjoyed the game, but it was kinda like Duke Nukem 3D, i thought it would be fantastic, but it wasn't. Luckily it wasn't as bad as Duke Nukem 3D" -Motochad 6.8/10 Wouldn't play again. Thats my review.

About an hour's worth of gameplay or so. It was more like 15 minutes of gameplay and 45 of cutscenes and tutorial, what little I did play was fun though.

Re: Let's Play X-COM: UFO DEFENSE - Captain's Log I think they simplified X-COM too much for the new one. The geoscape seems to function more like a board game, and you can't have multiple bases(?).
That said, going to preorder it as soon as I physically can.

That said, going to preorder it as soon as I physically can. You have one main base, plus launching centers for your interceptors and you get a satellite network to manage as well.

Re: Let's Play X-COM: UFO DEFENSE - Captain's Log That's not really the same though. In the original you could have your very first base completely wiped out without losing.
Only being able to have one central base of operations seems like it'll change the dynamics - I'm not sure how that'll work out personally.

They axed base invasions, IIRC, so that's not as much of an issue. I assume the aliens will probably still try to attack it (or your sub-bases) somehow, but an actual invasion? Nah.

Re: Let's Play X-COM: UFO DEFENSE - Fence Chronicles would it be possiable for me to adopt a soldier with the name of COmissionar Kain?
On a related site note, Only having played UFO Afterlight, UFO Aftermatch (both quite gun games might i add) and the recent x-com enemy unknown, Is the Older X-com games worth getting?

Re: Let's Play X-COM: UFO DEFENSE - Fence Chronicles Completely. The first game especially has actually aged really well.
