So they're doing a reimagining of X-COM. I must admit I haven't gotten around to playing the previous games despite owning them, so I can't comment on how "X-COM-y" the thing is, but in it's own right it looks pretty interesting.

While we're on the subject of X-COM, have a look at
Xenonauts too. It's a remake which I think sticks closer to the exact mechanisms of X-COM.

Either way, we can't lose.
