I want to tell you about an often overlooked game that I really enjoyed my time with.
The setting is AMAZING, you are in 1960s America trying to contain an alien invasion with your team.
It got a lot of flak because it used the XCOM name while being a completely different type of game and it definitely had some flaws (the gameplay reminds one most of Mass Effect 1) - but if you see it on sale somewhere give it a chance, I think you won’t regret it. If anyone else has played it, do share your thoughts :)
I have the same thoughts as you. I love the rebooted XCOM series but The Bureau is a lot of fun too and definitely didn’t deserve the criticism just for being an experiment in a different genre. The Mass Effect comparison is spot on, too.
