Yes Cult of Sirius!!! That was them!!!!

Only a dead member is a good member! ;)

I really liked to use them to level up my soldiers ;)

I only found it funny that no matter how often I raided the, no matter how much they were in the red: They always had goodies to pinch and still members around!!!!

Sometimes I raided them the whole day, didn´t matter, still goodies and members around.

Once, I swear, by mistake I damaged one of the producing companies quite heavily (Rocketthrower blew up quite a bit of their rather fragile building ;) ) it took weeks before they were back in full production....
I must admit, my English wasn´t so good either, but looking at the math, it was becoming obvious :P Yes I made once a blowup of the city as well. taking my fighters and blowing up whole blocks ;)

Stumbled on this article:

I'm so excited about this game! Though I have to admit Metal Gear Solid V seems to be outdoing the base building thing by a long shot, but still, really REALLY excited for this title :D

And now the long wait for the Collector's Edition to become available, then the hunt for who will be selling it. And the usual question of "Day 1 or Collector's Edition?", unless I double dip again.

The last XCOM was the only game of the 7th generation besides Demon Souls that kicked the shit out of me.

Avenger gameplay:

I liked having the option to have the Xcom soldiers use their own language (for those countries it had been translated in) but I have to say I don't mind the way they're doing it in 2 so far either. They're all speaking English but clearly in dialects from the region they're from.

New Video. Jake Solomon gives some more insight on the strategy layer, though didn't notice any new info. Let's see what next week brings.

Thanks for the video.
Cant believe that i lost the stream. Did they announce on the Xcom page?
They released the game on Steam.

Now just takes a good non-scripted demo and the game is set.

The hype is really starting to hit me ...

I'm trying to avoid too much footage on the game to leave some surprises open but couldn't avoid watching some soldier creation and weapon customizations ... I wants it .... my precious!~~~

Does the Digital Deluxe edition worth it?

Edit: I have no idea why the italic tag doesnt work.

Haha, I recall visiting Youtube every day for X-Com news the month Enemy Unknown was due to come out. It was the longest month of my life.

You buy for €14.99 content that will cost €19.99 before any discounts, and get said content on day 1. Whether that is worth it to you or not is up to you to decide.
Oh, and the soundtrack as well.

New lines break the italic tags.
