    Is there anywhere that I can get this game. I've searched bargain bin and the internet and am unable to find it.

    I wish I had bought it years ago when I had the chance, everybody says that it is awesome.

    ACK!

    Underdogs has the second one. They're practically the same game.

    I had the first but accidently threw the disks away last year. I have not seen the first on the net recently.

          Thank you. Now I just need the first one.

          Oh, and I can't use this because we don't do abandonware or warez here.

            I thought the Underdogs would have it. Ah well.

              http://xcomufo.com - I've downloaded XCOM-1, XCOM-2 and XCOM-3 from the site.

                Does XCom 1 work though. For my (bought years ago) version, it has copy protection.

                  The site that muxec mentions has all the copy protection codes.

                    You'll love the game. One of the all time best.

                      I have the first and second one but my comp. is too fast. I used to try and mess with mo-slo but I gave that up.

                      Now, I'm hoping I can get my parents' old comp. I'm pretty sure it's slow enough that it'll run fine.

                        There are several versions of X-COM. The one that came on floppy disks has copy protection, but the version that came out on CD-ROM does not. I got the CD version in a bargain bin. I had no clue what it was but it looked cool. It turned out to be the best $3 I ever spent.

                        Both these versions run too fast on modern computers, and both are a bit buggy. However, there was a bonus CD that came out with some computer game magazine that included a version designed to run on modern computers. It also seems less buggy; this is the version you want to get.
