Best game of 1996, my best game in 2006 ten years on!
X-Com is one of those games that I was unsure of buying, the idea that turn based strategy could be fun just wasn't a reality at the time. Sure the PC has had some strategy games like C&C but they were real time stra... Read Full Review

Supprisingly good game, even today when 3d shaded characters with dynamic lighting is the norm.
When you first pick up this game, you probably won’t understand it. You’ll boot it up, select your language, watch the decent intro trailer, pick the difficulty (easy, or course, you noob), and start to play. You fight... Read Full Review

This is a great game that slipped under the radar, and is extremely fun and addicting.
This game is very fun. You run your own little base and you defend the Earth from the UFOs the aliens send. You have to shoot them down and some of them shoot back, others are very easy to kill. After you shoot them down... Read Full Review

Greatest. Game. Ever.
X-com UFO Defense, is, quite frankly, the greatest computer game ever. I first played this game when I was 10. 10! Up until that point I had only known Mario and Sonic. And then came the brutal, creepy, downright scary ... Read Full Review

An classic game, that's as fresh as it ever was!
In my humble opinion, there has yet to be a turn based strategy game of this caliber released since this games release back in 1993. Sure there have been sequels - some of them complete rip-offs that just fall short, ot... Read Full Review
