"Luckily Firaxis has come to save the day."

We'll see. As I mentioned on BN, every developer who has made an X-Com game since TFTD have claimed to be "huge fans of the original", and they've all failed to capture what made EU and TFTD so good, or just outright sucked.

X-Com with updated graphics. That's all we want. Don't add a RTS component. Don't change the camera perspective. Don't change the genre. Don't need a multiplayer or online component. Don't add new "features" that change the gameplay and feel of the game. X-com with updated graphics. That's it. Turn-based, research tree, base building, fog of war, line-of-sight, destructable environment, a classic 50's sci-fi Forbidden Planet/This Island Earth vibe, and ominous, moody music. Why is that so hard?
