Offtopic / Re: hint X-COM remake in the works with 2K
« on: June 03, 2010, 12:37:24 pm »
I heard that this new remake is to take place in the 50's. Sounds like a bad move imo, as the tasteless, boring, and almost comical qualities that usually characterize 50's aliens don't belong in the X-Com universe. Not to mention all the chrome and shiny metals used in construction. It's just too sterile for X-Com. Hopefully they won't go down that route.
Besides that, I feel as though the way the original X-Com was set in modern, present times gave it a better fear factor. Almost as though an invasion could really happen. It at least made you think about the possibility.
