XCOM: Enemy Unknown Review - Gaming Nexus

From the review: "XCOM: Enemy Unknown is an expertly crafted strategy game that improves on the original in every way. It's a cinematic treat that is accessible enough for gamers of all experience. Best of all, it's not a bore. With more than 70 missions and a competitive two-player mode, XCOM is a high water mark for 2012!" 9.5/10

hell yeah. its doing great! although i would have gotten it even if it were 7's. the game looks fantastic and considering what they did with civ rev and the lack of these types of games on consoles, this was a no brainer

Crap! I have to decide between this and dishonored! :(

This game will likely last you much longer (much more replayable). Plus, it has been a LONG while since consoles got a decent strategy game (I'm getting it on PC, but console gamers rarely get good strategy games).
