Every XCOM Game Ranked From Worst to Best

BLG writes: "COM games have been around for nearly three decades at this point in some form or another. While XCOM never managed to reach the same heights of success as other long-running franchises, the series definitely has its fair share of fans. With XCOM 3 likely still a couple of years away, we figured we’d reminisce a bit about previous games in the series and try to rank them all from worst to best."

I would have put the original game at number one if it didn't crash all the time.
Have the suspense was know if it was going to load the next round of not.

Xenial715d ago

I know these are ranking the "XCOM" games. However, Phoenix Point, which is made by the same team, is much better than all of the XCOM games. Just my opinion though. lol

Minimoth714d ago

That's not quite accurate. Phoenix Point was made by Julian Gollop, the guy who designed the original X-COM games. The new XCOM games from 2012 onward were made by Firaxis and/or other subsidiaries of 2K Games.

Dark_Overlord714d ago

Xcom 1&2 above the original o_O ..... hell no

The more recent games were a massive downgrade (1 was an unfinished mess of a game XD)

I was always partial to the arcade wrestling games like Saturday night slam masters, wwf superstars, wrestlefest, wrestlemania, wrestle war and then a NES classic... pro wrestling. By the time the N64 era of wrestling games happened, I wasnt into wrestling much anymore (tv & games).

jjb1981824d ago

It was all about the Starman Somersault or the Tiger Claw!

Fist4achin824d ago

Starman was awesome. I also remember a tan dude with bright yellow hair. Good times!

gurp825d ago

Smackdown 1+2 on PSX
A lot of hours went into those two games

jbrock11825d ago (Edited 825d ago )

Virtual Pro Wrestling 1 & 2 > Most games on that list.

Also, WCW/NWO Revenge should be #2 minimum.

Are Wrestling Games Getting Worse?

Some of you may know that the latest instalment in the WWE gaming franchise 2K20 was released late last year to generally poor reviews. Some of this was based on graphical issues, but mostly it was due to the many glitches and bugs found – many of which are hilarious to witness.

Fire Pro needs more love. The last PS4 title gets regular playtime from me.

I hear that there are financial troubles at the studio, but I'm hopeful for a Switch port one of these days.

The Wood1557d ago

Anyone remember Giant Gram Wrestling on the Dreamcast .....

Rambokind1557d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1558d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191558d ago

I have Fire Pro for PS4 and PC but it seems more of like a Sim creator rather than people actually playing out matches. I still dont like anything as much as the N64 games

b163o11557d ago (Edited 1557d ago )

Golden Era of wrestling games in the Golden Era of wrestling. I've been contemplating going back and getting a N64 and getting those classic's
