So, any X-Com fans buying UFO: Aftermath?

is it a remake of the original game? every xcom game since the first one pretty much sucked.
 
since I'm here, maybe someone can help me.

i have the first 3 x-coms, but I can't seem to get it to work under winxp. any ideas?
 
OMFG!!!! I was playing XCOM2 just 4 days ago! I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo getting this! Thank you!!!

I believe Terror from the Deep is the easiest one to get working. Theres a patch thingy some guy made to get it to work. #3 supposedly works by jumping through hoops (for windows2000 anyway) and #1 is near impossible 'cause it demands to run on DOS. But then again, with that compatability doohicky that XP has, they might work better for you.

And I swear, the game must use the spare CPU speed to make their AI smarter. I'm only 1.5 months (x-com time) into the game and the aliens give me an intense fight (the campers suck though) way too often 😀 😀

tks!
 
Looks interesting.

The original X-COM was so awesome. I actually bought a PC to play Master of Orion way back when but X-COM was the game that I enjoyed the most.

Gotta love turning your speakers up at night and turning a corner and getting blown away.
