Gaming Xcom on PC

[Rangent]

Anyone else ever play the original X-Com UFO Defense/Enemy Unknown? I love that game, and just got my dosbox together last week and am playing it now.

Anyway, there's supposedly a (sort of) remake of the original game coming out in the next few weeks called UFO - Extraterrestrials. Anyone else following this release?

there is??
How cool, I havn't heard about it...

Love the original tho!

EDIT:

Okay looks somewhat like the other UFO-games... (as in, aftermath, afterburn (or whatever it is called))
I want a X-com-ier one!

After following this game for a while though, it looks like this one may hold fairly true to the original gameplay.

oh okay!
That's one thing the other's lacked... the research parts, and all.... I really liked researching all the things, and build a base....

not just wait for ages for one autopsy, or so... damn... this makes me want to download x-com again!

abandonwares yay!

researching and stealing alien technology was most of the fun i thought. damn i was such a big xcom geek, getting 3 other of my friends hooked on it.

gonna look into it, thanks
