  1. wow he is bad at the game, in the clips you almost see his soldiers out of cover as much as in it

  2. You should not use your voice professionally. You start every sentence up an octave and then come down. Please stop.

  3. Quite possibly the most overrated game of the decade. When all of your guys die in one hit and the enemies critical you every single time they hit you… yah trash

  4. I didn't see who did this review before watching. Then he says something negative about a great game, and I'm like… "Oh, its IGN. Makes sense." IGN is a joke and their reviews hold no merit. This game, and its series, are amazing. Sorry it's not an A-Listed FPS. There ARE other genres out there.

  5. Steve, the next time someone is harassed by a coworker and come to you bc you a the person in charge of that area, don't ever tell them "don't make it a big deal" just so you don't have to deal with the situation. It's called being a grown up, now act like one.

  6. I see what the reviewer means about the learning curve, in the context of the review: he isn't complaining that it's difficult, but that it's obtuse enough that by the time you figure it out, your first play through is likely affected. Difficult games aren't a bad thing, but that doesn't means games can't outline your objectives and priorities earlier on.
    Either way, it's not like 8+ is a bad score. People have become so expectant of that "10/10" rating that they seem to have forgotten that this means perfect, not average. Difficulty aside, XCOM isn't perfect. The linearity of the levels is enough to kick it down a level for me, fun though it is.

  7. Your complaints stood out more than how really good this game is.
    That's why I miss GameTrailers… without them, I have no choice but to put up with these hipster reviewers.

  8. I remember Team PGP playing this. I think they played it. Anyway going to install this as while I don't usually play this sort of game I like how it has cut scenes which this reviewer disliked. I think they are needed to attract new players like me. Thanks for this review IGN.

  9. Yay!
    I'm downloading this at 3:41am and watching the review to get an idea of what to expect, never played one of these. Also have the free Second Assault pack for BF4 in queue 🙂 oh and workshop contraptions for Fallout.
    So much to play and I have summer school.
    I'm sad now..

  10. Its pretty scary when a review tells you that its the kind of game where you could get 12 hours into it and discover that there is no way you can win. This seemed to be the only descent GWG title for June 2016….and now I think that I won't even get THIS.
