    Good overview I enjoyed that.

    Amazing they were able to restore the xcom rep with the last couple of releases. I thought it would never happen.

    The first two xcoms are stone cold classics that still hold up today. Chaos (8bit) is a lot of fun. Rebelstar raiders II was great at the time.
