UFO: Aftermath

Not X-Com, but not bad either.

Well it seems that I am not the only X-Com fan that bought this game without doing some proper searching, still though I consider it to be more of a win than a loss. The atmosphere is set perfectly for this kind of game, the streets are abandoned and filled with mutated freaks, the music in the geoscape is also perfect for the situation. The game has some very interesting story and the combat is solid, my one complaint with it is the difficulty curve, and this seems to be a problem that all of the games in the UFO trilogy suffer from, you will find yourself in a situation where a new unfimiliar enemy appears, and you are not at all prepared, and before you know it these new enemies are EVERYWHERE. on one side this does make the game more interesting and make you adapt your strategies, improve your weapons, etc. on the other hand it gets REALLY fucking frustrating in situations like attacks on bases that are overrun with aliens that have highly advanced weaponry.
