XCOM: Enemy Unknown

So... is anyone else excited for this? If you've played the original it keeps the real-time geoscape view, and the turn based isometric combat. The videos/screen look awesome, and from the way it's going if you pre-purchase you'll get Civilization 5 too. If you haven't played the original it's called XCOM: UFO Defense and it's available on steam for $5, and it's frikken awesome if you can deal with the fact it's from '95.

Never played the original, but this remake got my attention as it's from Firaxis

I played the original, ima go look for some screenies as if they have made the game play more interesting, I will play this one.

Demo is up on Steam.

Disappoint I am - the demo is very locked down super linear with like 15 minutes of play for a 5.4GB download. Makes the game look fun tho, just lame 5.4G demo that you can't really do anything in.

I thought the exact same thing. Judging by the size of the demo I thought it would 3-4 missions and allow you to mess around with the base stuff. Wasn't that at all.
