Offtopic / Why no HD tune of XCom ?
« on: February 25, 2016, 07:34:33 pm »
I'm a huge fan of the original X-Com Enemy unknown (Yes I call it that, thats the name on my Amiga game), I got this great game while I had my Amiga, and it was one of the games I really really sat and played and continued to play even when I had finnished it.
When I got my PC I continued to play this game but on a Amiga emulator, however once Steam released it on their network I bought that and continued to play.
Infact I play it still on my computer !!! hehe
I was so excited whent hey announced a reboot or new X-Com game and it did look promising to they dumbed it down.... they took away so much stuff I loved about the game, I loved for example where you take with you 14 men out on a terrorsite and by luck manage to save 5 after some Chryssalis have done off with your men.
Building new bases to cover the earth was great too, the research tree and getting better weapons to fight them more.
In my view there really was no need to change much ... exept for one thing... the graphics.
So after being so disapointed by the new X-com game (no I did not even bother to buy it.... ) I have been hoping atleast someone would HD-Tune the original game.
I know of Xenonauts and all that (yes I bought that game) but I did not find it all that good, I did not get that good feeling I get when I play the original game.
I also bought these UFO games (Aftermath, AfterShock and one more I don't remember name of) I actually liked those... would have loved to see the original game with that graphic...
Anyone know if there is hope for a HD Tuning of the original game ?
