Xenonauts - The proper X-COM?

Recommended Posts

Hello all, just came across this:

http://store.steampowered.com/app/223830/?snr=1_7_15__13

It's said to be a proper X-COM remake, but having never played x-com before, I couldn't tell. But what I can tell is it is fun. The ground combat is turn-based and it feels like Jagged Alliance 2, so for me it is a plus.

It's still in early-access stage at $19.99, but for me it's playable enough, don't have that many crash or things like that.

Ehhh, the way I see it is is that Xenonauts is intentionally closer to the mechanics/UI of the earlier X-COM games while X-COM: Enemy Unknown is instead an attempt at a remake with "the X-COM essence", though this shouldn't be considered a knock on either game (and the developers' statements about each other in 2012 have been rather cordial).
