My UFO: Alien Invasion review

(1/5) > >>

Ildamos:
I've been playing this game for quite some time now (way back 2007 or so) and I felt it's high time to give it a review and the acknowledgment it deserves. I've also put in my honest feedbacks about the game's low points. I hope nobody will get mad about my 6.5 rating regarding its graphics but in order to be consistent, I had to give it that (I gave several AAA games average scores in the graphics department so it's not that bad).

Anyway, here's my:

It's a 5,000-word article so I hope I haven't meandered.

The gameplay is a solid 9.5 though. It's that jaw-dropping. Thank you to the developers who have painstakingly created this game for all X-Com fans.


EDIT: I've also created a UFO: AI album in my Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.366486093383501.89907.180717828626996&type=1#!/pages/Imbacore/180717828626996 (If you like the page please Like it :) )

You are welcome!

Sorry for the very late reply but I got inundated with work. Glad to know my review was a pleasure to read!

Crystan:
It looks like your review is based on the 2 years old 2.3.1 version? ;) Anyway nice review you wrote although iam a bit sad it doesnt feature the whole new sfx & revisted music play list i contributed to this project for 2.4. :D We also fixed some of the things you criticise, like the weapon sfx for the aircrafts.

Falkon Nightsdale:
Nicely written  ;)

YES! In this case, I consider best was system featured in X-COM:Apocalypse, with each solder having it's personal equipment and teams being created from independently equiped soldiers..

I agree... But I must admit, that sniping ET's in parking lot in "bigcity" map isn't very exciting... ???

(Today i deleted ver 2.3.1. and try to dl 2.4)
