  Lol. If you haven’t tried I, you really should. It’s like an Enemy Within Demake, with all of the same features and better strategy. You can get an Alien Grenade Launcher that allows you to strategically control the route of the grenade. It allows for absolutely bonkers strategies like blowing a hole in the top of an alien battleship, guiding a grenade in blind to the enemy command structure, and then dropping in afterwards like some sort of Hi-Tech Psionic SWAT Team. Makes the entire enemy team panic. And makes for easy clean up.

  Absolutely loved that game.

    I played it when it came out in the 90s and didn’t like it then, won’t like it now.
    There is a point in time when we understood how to do User interfaces, and a point when we forgot that again. XCOM:Enemy within is smack in the middle of that period.
