    And then there’s XCOM… which thankfully 2 is amazing.

    Really? It wouldn’t play on my machine back when it first came out so I returned it and never went back after seeing a ton of negative reviews about the timed missions. Did they update that part or was the bad feedback overblown?

      Oh man I have a couple thousand hours logged in on that game. It’s beautiful.

      You get past the “timed” missions as soon as you learn how to play the game. They’re a non-issue. I honestly completely forgot about that until you just brought it up.

        Oh awesome. I’ll have to try it again. I have a couple hundred hours in xcom 1 and play long war from time to time. Exciting to have a ‘new’ game to play!
