Summary: The Best
Review: X-Com UFO Defense and Apocolypse are the best games I have ever played. UFO Defense had som much suspense and addiction that I played for three days straight without sleep just for one mission. I haven't played TFTD yet. Apocolypse is simply the best. With new aliens, a so-so story line and a new function: Real time. Once you use it, you will never go back to turn base. You can pause the game right before something hits you and dodge or find some way to block it. Plus the gravity factor is immense. I lost my best soldier from a collapsing building.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definately a collectors item
Review: X-Com UFO Defense was one of the best games I've ever played. In depth story lines, good control of players and strategy. Very much a good, basic game.

Summary: Best Turn-Based Strat Series Ever
Review: X-Com: UFO Defense is the single greatest turn-based strategy game ever made. Period. Ever feature of the game, from the pressures of maintaining economic success, to the intriguing research of the alien technology, to the slow-paced yet high stakes ground combat will have you playing through the night.By comparison, Terror from the Deep is a much weaker game which will only interest those that haven't played UFO Defense yet. It has the same basic story as UFO Defense, all of the same gameplay elements, and the same alien races and technology only thinly disguised with new names and graphics. TFTD is hardly worth playing.But Apocalypse is another story altogether. This is the first(and so far, only) X-Com sequel that deserves to be associated with the original; the several new gameplay options, most notably the real-time battle engine and a new, interesting race of aliens, mak this X-Com a worthy sequel to the original.So aside from TFTD, X-Com is an awesome series of games that no strategy fan should miss. If you haven't played at least one of these games yet, check 'em out.
