And not any funky new shit multiplayer!

I want X-Com 1 turn based... I wanna be able to go against a buddy as
the aliens for once, or even just a X-Com vs. X-Com skirmish!

It'd take what? A week for some of the coders at Microprose to release
and IPX or TCP/IP patch for X-Com 1 that had some manner of head to
head combat in it.

That's my gripe.

Ufo.
