    There is one thing thad really bugs me about X-COM games (well actually
theres a few things but I'll just stick to the one). So what are your
soldiers: Humans, in Apoc you get Mutant things and robots; what do the
aliens have? They've got Anthropods, spitters, skelitoids (or something like
that), psimorphs, multiworms, mega spawns and fucking poppers. I mean what
the fuck is this, the united league of aliens who want to conquer earth.
Which brings up another problem i have with the storyline, why does every
bastard in the universe want to conquer earth, whats their fucking problem?
    Well fair do's, they couldnt bring out another X-COM game if somebody
didnt have a problem with humanity, but i still dont understand why you have
an entire united planets league trying to conquer earth in a single game.
