Everything apart from the actual gameplay looked cool. Those alien sound effects.
I can see why xcom fans are pissed off though, looks like it retains nothing from how deep the PC games were, and especially after deus ex HR being so faithful for a reboot of a complex beloved PC franchise.
Animations are a bit strangle, but visually and atmosphere wise it's looking quite good. Sadly performance looks dredful and the gameplay itself looks a bit...boring. We'll see. Is this coming this year or next?
Doesn't look too bad actually. I suppose people who have been waiting for a real reboot or continuation of the xcom series feel disappointed. For me who never played any of those this looks like a normal shooter with Mass Effect mechanics.

@Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Weeks ago)

Commented on 2011-08-29 12:36:44Though the whole old setting alien invasion reminds me of Resistance, but I dont mind, I enjoy it!
Gameplay looks to be fun as well, especially with the tactical approach of commands, kind of reminds me of Mass Effect in a way.
Definitely a game I will keep my eye on.

It gets a lot of hate.

I dont like the "fake" zoom were the camera zooms close to the weapon and make the view closer and crosshair smaller, nasty (bodycount).
