The first game was awesome, particularly the terror missions at night. The suspense hung in the air like a dense layer of fog as your team creeped through the unknown.
The third one (Apocalypse) was okay but not as good as the first.
Currently there is already a XCOM-lookalike called UFO: Aftermath in the works. For those who don't know UFO: Enemy Unknown is the original name of XCOM.
Anybody who hasn't played the game should definitely download it from an abandonware site.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

I've heard that Novermber 17 is trying to do do Xcom and that therfore fireaxis should stick to Pirates!!!!I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

If Firaxis and Nov 17 are both doing an XCom style game, then chances are the quality of both will be greater than if they were the only XCom style around.
/me thinks back to CtP
... well, in theory it should make them produce better quality products.I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).
