X-COM: UFO Defense Review (ashes102307)
Absolutely amazed to find this game after many years. I used to play on the Playstation but had to borrow a playstation mouse to play it. I loved this game. Later versions sped up the visuals which caused me to stop playing any later versions. Seeing 'flaming skulls' rising when an incendiary grenade went off was a cool effect of the times in 'cutting edge visuals'. Also amazing how little space the game uses for all it does. A 'lot of strategy needs to be learned as you play. Funny that I never made it past 'Beginner' level and it was a real challenge even then. I'm glad I remembered some of the 'tricks' needed to succeed. I would have kept playing but lost everything to a SoCal Wildfire in 2007. Bummer that. I was born in 1964 for those that might wonder about my comments.
