Cool. I'm glad to hear that the core gameplay has stayed intact from Xcom. I could care less how a game looks or sounds if the gameplay is clunky or boring.

That's new?..hmm.. I already saw that one last week but hadn't seen the others..anyways..I like what I see. I'm feeling better about it now. I know there are some graphic whores who won't like the retro look...but to me it's just what I was hoping. They are updated enough that it's a big improvement over X-com but still has little touches that remind me of X-Com.

Also in the one vid I posted towards the end it looks like Grey's sitting in mini saucers..or at least their version of them...It's the first I've seen of them ..I was hoping they would make an appearence to give me the complete X-Com feel.\ [:D]
