Ohhhh man this looks like it's going to be awesome.
I'll keep my eyes for it at E3, but till then this game is definantly going to be on my mind for buying.
Right next to GTA V.
Oh fuck yes. I just hope they do as good a job as Firaxis did.
More info from the site.
[quote]The year is 1962, JFK is President and the Cold War has the nation gripped by fear - but a far more powerful and insidious enemy than communism is threatening America. Known only to a select few, a top-secret government unit called The Bureau begins investigating and concealing a series of mysterious attacks by an otherworldly enemy. As special agent William Carter, players call the shots, pull the trigger and lead their squad in a gripping third-person tactical shooter set within a high-stakes, covert war to protect humanity. The Bureau's mission is clear - survive, adapt and overcome the enemy threat. The Bureau has been erasing the truth for decades. The time will come for the truth to be revealed.[/quote]
Honestly surprised that it's still XCOM. Really thought it would have rebranded into something different. I don't care, though. As long as it's as neat as that first bit of gameplay we got back in the day, I'm sold.
Also, what is even going on with that dude's Cowboys Vs. Aliens bracelet thing.

It wasn't [i]that[/i] bad.
It wasn't Infinite, and sure as hell wasn't the first Bio.
But it was still ok.
Impeccably filmed, fuckin bravo.

honestly the only thing that sucked with BS2 was the story, which xcom has no story its just killing aliens to protect the world.

This XCOM does have a story though. It's the origins of XCOM.

which hasnt have to be really deep, just do a quick intro about how it was formed with like first sightings and bam your story is done.
Its made by 2k, The Bioshocks are some of the best games / stories to date in my opinion, so I'm excited.
Kind of disappointed that you're locked into playing one preset character. That isn't very XCOM-y.
I'm not gonna lie, I haven't been much of an X-COM fan, strategy games aren't usually something I can get into, so when I heard there was going to be a shooter in the universe more focused on story, I got excited to play an X-COM game that I could jump right into.
As long as they can make the enemies as creepy, threatening, and imaginative as in the original X-Com this will be golden.

ummm you play as a nameless commander in all xcoms.

[sp]i liked bs2 more than infinite
it grew on me, which was pretty much the opposite of what infinite did[/sp]

ummm the description makes it seem like you're playing over-the-shoulder of one dude with a name.
