 Today, IGN First officially announces that the game 2K hinted at is in fact Firaxis Games XCOM 2, a full sequel to 2012s critically acclaimed XCOM: Enemy Unknown and a continuation of the now 20-year-old legendary turn-based tactical squad combat series, which will be available exclusively on PC this November. Watch the debut trailer above for a glimpse into a future where the aliens are in control of the Earth, and XCOM has gone underground to fight to overthrow their Advent government. This new guerrilla force will face more powerful enemies in unpredictable combat scenarios as they fight to turn the tables on a technologically superior enemy. http://uk.ign.com/articles/2015/06/01/xcom-2-announced-ign-first XCOM 2 Reveal Trailer |

Not surprising that 2k decided to take the series back to pc considering how poorly enemy unknown scored with reviews.. let alone the extremely poor sales on console.

Xcom was a great game. Got it on steam or pennies. Really well made game and fun to play. I'd never get the peasant version |

'really well made and fun to play' clearly you played a different game then the vast majority of reviewers, players that gave reviews and the whole gaming community as well. The game was a below average game at best. What's that about a certain type of gamer taking whatever Sh** is shoved down their throats?

Shame it's only going on PC as I wanted a next generation console version of this. Time to fire the old gal back up

These games reminds me of playing chess with big flashy graphics, never been into turned based combat games.

@ gooji - 2.06.15 - 08:11am Errrr what game was you playing then? Both enemy unknown and enemy within scored pretty d*mn good. Even the Mobile versions scored great Mediocre scores all round with some below average. The game brought nothing new and original to the vast library of turn based games just like it. Both games were released extremely full of bugs and still to this day have plenty of bugs that have never been fixed by official patchs. The game is a good time waster if you only owned it.. Not much else. |

Jake Solomon said on a couple occasions that the series will go in the direction of XCOM Apocalypse rather than TFTD as far as story. The trailer definitely mirrors that statement.

Not much else. That's just plain lying. Great scores and reviews from nearly every site who reviewed it (sites that matter). Across all three platforms it got two 'mixed' reviews, the rest being good. Metascore of 89, 89 and 90 on the three platforms. You don't half talk some s**t. http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/xcom-enemy-unknown Metascore 89 Generally favorable reviews based on 57 Critics User Score 8.1 Generally favorable reviews based on 1967 Ratings |

Mediocre at best given the time table when the game was released, reviews were given out like candy. The games are all terrible and half arsed. Definitely not the type of game to pay full price for and rather picking up extremely cheap. I don't expect Xcom2 to be any different. |

Turning this into your subjective opinion. You can't argue with facts, that it got really good reviews. |

You can't argue with facts, that it got really good reviews. back tracking? sorry no.. just calling it as I see it and many others see it I'm afraid  It's a mediocre game and no amount of review scores can change that. 7.5-8 mediocre but slightly above average. 9 being good 10 being great.

There is no sense in trying to argue about it with any of you since your all so thick skulled and just accept any piece of cr*p that's shoved down your throats anyways

@ newt182 - 2.06.15 - 01:00pm You are still doing it. Have some dignity. Not sure what you are trying to imply here.. That and clearly have a very poor taste in games as evident by your defense of a terrible series of games But again, I'm not going to argue about it. But I'm also not going to let you sit up on a high horse
