    Installing as I type.

    DAMN I'm looking forward to this.

    If only I didn't have to work tomorrow.

    I so want this game. It looks like it will have all the elements that we know and love. Hurrah for perma death

    18 years puts me a 6 so its not suprising i didn't know anything about it

    A lot of this in dev has passed me by, but all i'm hearing recently, it sounds like my kind of thing. Will have to pick it up at some point, but gaming calender is already very full

    I was too busy playing colonisation to play xcom...

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    I have already felt the fringe benefits of XCOM, a friend got a free copy of Civ V which he gave me so I have leap frogged from Civ II to Civ V and I feel epic!

    Well 3 was very like two with a few added tweaks, but diplomacy was a step backwards if you'd played alpha centuri.
    and I never got on with 4.

    I am hoping for a steam sale to get XCOM, I've read the reviews and I want that game.
    It is on my list of games to buy (as was Civ V)
