OnlySP – XCOM Enemy Unknown | Review
When X-COM: UFO Defence released way back in 1994, it established itself as one of the greatest strategy titles of all time, still holding that honour to its name even in today’s market. Its exploration of science fiction kept gamers glued to their seats, perspiration dripping from sweaty foreheads as each new alien type was uncovered, the next always more fearful than the last. Microprose had nailed the turn-based gameplay, yet over the last decade, the public have seen their strategic outputs take a real-time, rather than turn-based approach. Should Firaxis Games have sped things up in their reboot of this old-school classic, or should we revel in the slow paced, intellectual action that hooked fans to the original in the first place?
