the new xcom titled Alliance may be a first person shooter, but it still has
enough origonal touches to make it truly origonal. It still has some Quasi-
base building modes, so those that liked that aspect should be allright. The
best way Ive heard it described is Xcom 1 but instead of an overhead view,
its first person (meaning the battle structure is the same). I dont know
whether this means realtime or if they are embracing a turn based mode but
it still should be worthwhile and a definate time waster.
