Let me be clear: I haven't ever played Battle Isle 1, 2, or 3; I've only ever played Incubation and Incubation: The Wilderness Missions. Incubation is an old favourite of mine. It's a core, detailed squad-combat game with a heavy focus on exploiting the puzzle-like environment to your advantage. Each level is expertly crafted and woven together with a compelling story line. Between-mission game play features an accessible but powerful squad management interface, and a command & conquer style mission selection; wherein the benefits of your choice weigh heavily on equipment availability in future missions. Multiplayer is an absolute blast. Once you've mastered the Single Player campaign jumping into MP is a rush. It's almost that Multiplayer X-Com we've always wanted, but never got. Lay down the $10 for Incubation, you won't regret it.
