XCom 2 - Xbox One

Amazing game, should be a option to start a new game+ so you can keep your characters. Never played the series before but I have been hooked on this non-stop. It's quite hard but you soon start to learn the mechanics and it becomes a very enjoyable and rewarding game!

I love the Xcom series of PC games refreshing change from the normal shooter type games. More like a miniatures game. Rather tactical. I never get bored redoing missions and trying new tactics. Very recommended

Loved every minute of it. Great for fans of the original or for those who like turn based strategy

Box damaged, disc won't load after 7 cosecutive attempts, circular scratch around license area of the reading side of the disc.

Love the game and came promptly

Love it

I played through a little bit of this RTS with awesome cutscenes in it but if you took the premise of this game and handed it over to ummm anyone else, it could be turned into what it should be and more a first person shooter in a cool world because the action in this is painfully slow. It’s like going back to the original Fallout but worse. I just couldn’t carry on with it and it was a free game as part of Games with Gold.

A great game made infuriating. The balance of power is ridiculous. Someone has already touched on the topic of your own troops missing point blank opportunities. The vipers seem to grab and crush from anywhere on the map...the codex teleports behind your squad, negating all cover, and scores critical hit after critical hit. The less said about the viper king taking a turn after every half movement the better. Alien numbers are just far too many to deal with, especially when half your squad in gripped by vipers, frozen, weapons put out of action or mind controlled..which you'll find is the only time your troops will find their aim!!! Loved XCom 1 but this is far far to difficult even on easy setting.

Me parece un excelente juego, estrategia pura y permadeath que te harán pensar 2 veces antes de realizar un movimiento, si te gustan los juegos con buena dificultad este es para ti por el contrario si creer que es a ir por saco disparando a diestra y siniestra pasa de él.

First off, this game probably isn't for casual gamers. The learning curve is rather steep, having both an overall resource management game encompassing the brilliant turned based squad tactical missions. But, if you invest a little time and get the hang of it, you'll be amazed by the depth this game can offer. The game is challenging, even on its rookie level, and it's easy to invest a ton of time strategically building up your global alien resistance force. Its one of those games that you just need to do 'one more thing' and the next thing you know it's 3 in the morning and you got work in the morning. The strategic depth of it is something I just can't stress enough. I found myself thinking of strategies and tactics throughout the day, and couldn't wait to put them to the test. It's amazing how the overall metagame is so engrossing as you are pulled in many different directions, but that all fades away when you send a squad out on a mission. At that point, you are only worried about is completing the mission, and getting your soldiers home safely. As the game progresses, you become more and more attached to the soldiers that do your grunt work, and it's devastating when one gets seriously injured, or even killed. Customizing them, naming them, and carefully upgrading them is the meat of the game, and it's a blast. The rules and mechanics of the game are as close to a miniatures based tabletop skirmish game you can get without having to paint your own figures. Visually, the graphics are very good. Although, sometimes the camera is a bit wonky, and it's hard to see all the action (not that it really matters, as it's turned based, not real time) I wish you could zoom in a little closer to the battlefield at times, but I just love the look of the maps with the variety of forests, cities, slums, alien bases, trainyards, etc. etc. There are many prettier games, but rarely do you find one with such addicting game play. I finally just finished the campaign (only on rookie) and it still took me a couple of weeks of playing time (after work and on weekends). It was so fun, that I'm going to start a new campaign on veteran level tomorrow. Even though the campaign will roughly be the same, the game randomizes so much that it'll feel like a whole new challenge. After that, I'm probably going to download the DLC to extend it's life even further. I haven't tried multiplayer, but it looks like a blast. It allows PvP action with points based squads of aliens, humans, or a mix of both to face off on random maps. I play all kinds of games on my console, first person shooters, role playing type games, sports, racing, etc...but this game has captured all my attention like no game has in several years. I honestly wish there were more of this type of tactical skirmish turned based game, available in several different genres. Excellent replayablility, engrossing storyline, amazing tactical depth. A perfect mix for me.

I love the XCom series, and I had high hopes for this one. This one, however, has visual issues. I am playing on a hd 70 inch tv, and I can't read any of the words on the screen. After squinting for a few hours, I turned it off. I had other people watch to see if it was just me, but they had issues with the ship visuals and the words on the screen. I won't be able to play this game for hours in a row like the first game. I do like the gameplay though... It has a nice ratio of respect for the 1st game and enough new things to be very interesting. I would probably do a 4 star of visuals were fixed.

Me encantan los juegos de estrategia. Hace muchos años compre el xcom y me gusto mucho. Cuando me di cuenta que había salido él xcom2 lo compre de inmediato. No pude haber estado más acertado. Horas y horas de entretenimiento. Debes meditar cada acción sobre todo conforme vas avanzando. Súper recomendado.

Oh yeah, XCOM Enemy Within on steroids! I love the changes they've made and it's visually great on my new TV. If you're into using a console I would recommend PC, but mine isn't beefy enough for it. This game is pretty difficult, even on easy but it auto saves quite a bit in all the right places in case you need to restart. Definitely recommend! Especially if you liked Enemy Within.
