The perm-death of your units that may be with you for some 20 missions or more before his/her death, well its genius.

If your new to Xcom, its a 4x turn based strategy, I like to think of it as an advanced version of chess, whereby each unit type has different movement and firing capabilities, to which the alien invaders also have unique skills to exploit or endure.

That doesn't take anything from this masterpiece to re-experience. If you know either Xcom, or Xcom EW, then this is just replaying the entire game with only very very very minor parts missed out (such as they all speak English, no choice to change them to their origins language). If you I am really really really struggling to understand HOW they converted this utter classic so well to mobile. The only real issue I’ve had is that I can’t stop thinking about my crummy experience with the PC game.I am really really really struggling to understand HOW they converted this utter classic so well to mobile. My little squad of alien hunters have been doing their job exceedingly well. Barring a few bugs, I’ve no real complaints. The game and all its DLC make for a fine purchase. I’ve been playing on PlayStation 4, and, despite some loading issues, it’s been an overwhelming positive experience. Which is to say: I’m genuinely loving the console release. It is still dead, and ignored, in a corner of my office. But even when I did, it still died over and over and over.

I did built the thing, and could have gone for better cooling. I dropped over a thousand dollars on parts to build a PC, and XCOM 2 taxed my graphics card to the point that the whole thing overheated. But XCOM 2 on PC was a mess, and it ultimately killed my PC. I even built a brand new PC out of parts just for the occasion. Naturally, I was stoked when Firaxis Games announced they were doing a sequel, XCOM 2.

In case you feel like “love” is a strong word here: The only video game I played during my honeymoon was XCOM. I love the latest incarnation of the XCOM franchise.
