Three months after E3, 2K Games finally decided to share the walkthrough of XCOM they presented back then and Seth had told us about.

Looked interesting, and that might be because I never played an XCOM game before. :D

Love the setting and love the concept of the game.
Though the whole old setting alien invasion reminds me of Resistance, but I dont mind, I enjoy it!

Gameplay looks to be fun as well, especially with the tactical approach of commands, kind of reminds me of Mass Effect in a way.

Definitely a game I will keep my eye on.

Everything apart from the actual gameplay looked cool. Those alien sound effects.

I can see why xcom fans are pissed off though, looks like it retains nothing from how deep the PC games were, and especially after deus ex HR being so faithful for a reboot of a complex beloved PC franchise.

Cool. Graphics looks quite amazing in some regards (the indoor environments in the beginning and the facial detail & animation)...

Looking forward to see more. :)

Animations are a bit strangle, but visually and atmosphere wise it's looking quite good. Sadly performance looks dredful and the gameplay itself looks a bit...boring. We'll see. Is this coming this year or next?

Looks to me like another uninspiring shooter.

LOL @ crosshairs over ironsights. And LOL at himarkers in singleplayer.

And whats with the hate?

I think they are a solid addition to the genre for us console gamers, you know we dont have the accuracy of teh greatest mouse to shot.

It gets a lot of hate.

More realistic look on how to aim from weapons, and better accuracy for pinpointing your shots.

So...ADS>>>no ADS, IMO.

I dont like the "fake" zoom were the camera zooms close to the weapon and make the view closer and crosshair smaller, nasty (bodycount).

Doesn't look too bad actually. I suppose people who have been waiting for a real reboot or continuation of the xcom series feel disappointed. For me who never played any of those this looks like a normal shooter with Mass Effect mechanics.
