Video Review - XCOM: Enemy Unknown

LOOKS AWESOME

This game is super fun and  addictive. If you don't like this game, your a super GOON!

Went ahead and got the game, will give it a try, why not.

Plays so much like the older titles, yet is a distinctly excellent re-imagining of the franchise. Time and again we've seen other such re-introductions of popular "oldies" fall flat on their virtual faces.

Thanks Kevin, great review.

is this like warhammer dawn of war 2?

i never heard of this but it looks really fun!

To bad they can't make a warhammer game play this well.

man this game was so cool back in the day...

best ever

This game is SO much Fun!  I  played it for 6 hours straight last night and that is something I have not done with any game for years.

Building your base, researching new items for new armor, weapons and items for your base, your ships and yourself. Promoting, outfitting, customizing and recruiting new soldiers. So fun and I just did not want to stop.

Great story, nice graphics (nothing cutting edge but nice), good sound effects and more importantly just plain freaking fun.  It is a VERY addicting game.

These game is the fuking Awesome SHIT!!!!

Just like he said, your biggest enemy in the game is your patience. As long as you keep your cool, you will do fine.

Interesting game... but like he said, buggy as hell. Might wait a bit before getting it.

Interesting very interesting :D

commandos in a future way

AC3 or Xcom? After playing this demo it's a no-brainer, Xcom all the way! Now I just have to decide which console to get it on.

Im gonna get this game Wow! 

This game looks like spyro the dragon

more hard and more hard

good game i like it

Firaxis did a really nice job here. Although not as good as the original UFO Defense this game clearly appeals to older players and new ones alike without losing too much of what made the original one of the best games ever made. In a gaming generation with almost non-existant innovation this game comes pretty close as an instant modern classic.

Great game, I love this. Its like the 1990 game.

moreover if you compare this to medieval/magical RPG Tactic game.

Ogre Tactics, Final Fantasy Tactics... Almost the same gameplay the differences are XCOM's Gameplay have a unique strategical and tactical gameplay that will never find to those.

anyway kudos. The best remake of XCOM deserving as a 8.5 - 9.0 ratings

This looks good. Is it a bit like Valkyria Chronicles in terms of gameplay? Also is there an easy mode? I don't like getting stuck in strategy games.

I still have the PS1 versions (Enemy and Terror) of this game and am happy I can let em gather some dust for a while now cause this one is gonna suck up a load of my life again, DAMN YOU ALIEN SCUM. 

Am I missing something here!  How is this point and click crap fun?

This is utterly a fantastic strategy game!

not played the old one, but what do u think abt it? help pls

Great game! Great Review! Check out my gameply vid and let me know what you guy and gals think!

@dave2k2

btw bro..its called an achievement of real life...its called money...i must have it but i guess you dont...lol...rocking the usa out for 51 yrs

@dave2k2 rugripper40Albaficas Not sure what you're getting at here? You've thrown insignificant amounts of money at hardware. This is an achievement how? If you had any net worth whatsoever, you wouldn't be spouting off like a teenager about this. Nobody really cares other than how much of a loser it makes you come off as. A guy with your attitude will always be socially inept, and that?s something no amount of nerd hardware purchased at Chinamart can fix.

lmfao...when you grow up maybe you will be like me. huh??? chinamart??? try gamestop bro  " power to the people"...lol

I know that they wanted to make big come back of legendary game, but this is most annoying and stupidest game that I ever played and has nothing to do with old x-com or laser squad or any such a game. Management of the base is too simplified, and combat is crowded with some stupid rules, not to mention that man with a rank of colonel misses every time when he shots. Enemies are excessively superior and some missions are not playable at all, it's just frustrating. Jagged Alliance for example is much better tactical game.
