New XCOM walk through demo, damn this looks cool! :)

It absolutely was not a Real Time Strategy game, it was a turn based tactical game. Big difference.

Well, Apocalypse did have a real time option. Which was brilliant.

Edit: but I really do have to add that I preferred the way combat was done in the original.

Anyone remember Incubation? That's the style I'd like a new X-COM game to use.

This is also not the first time someone has made an X-COM FPS.

Okay, the tactical part of the game WAS turn based, but the Strategic part, was not... Remember having to wait for R&D to build crap? Sure, it's nothing like say, Starcraft or Age of Empires, but, there was some serious ground-work laid...

And I missed the first XCOM knock off... but then again, any FPS I saw in the late 90s early 2000's was an automatic "pass", I'm just not that good of a twitch fighter on the computer.
