Xcom 3 zal weer menige uren spanning opleveren. Zij die het in turn-based doen, zullen er langer mee bezig zijn dan zij die het realtime doen, maar spelplezier is zeker gegarandeerd.

X-COM: Apocalypse has some pretty big futuristic combat boots to fill. stands among the best turn-based strategy games of the past decade. Apocalypse does indeed fill those boots - the problem is, it may fill them with too much. The addition of a real-time combat option, the announcement of which had X-COM purists protesting in horror, does not make X-COM the Command & Conquer clone that everyone feared. In fact, it works quite well, to a certain point. This is almost the X-COM sequel that folks have been hoping for, so close that at times it's impossible to fault the game for a few minor problems.

Ich kann sie nicht mehr sehen, diese Grünlinge von fernen Planeten und aus parallelen Dimensionen. Zum dritten Mal greifen sie unsere Erde an, und wieder werden die Menschen siegen. Wie immer töten wir zuerst einige Exemplare der Fremdlinge, untersuchen sie, schauen uns das eine oder andere UFO genauer an und schwupps ... verfolgen wir die garstigen Schleimbeutel in ihre Heimatdimension. Dort wird alles dem Erdboden gleichgemacht, während außerirdische Generäle schon über den Invasionsplänen zum vierten Teil der X-COM-Serie sitzen. Was soll ich dazu noch groß sagen?
