the irony, openxcom makes me play less x-com
« on: March 09, 2011, 05:49:38 pm »
One funny thing is, I stopped playing X-Com completely ever since I found this place.

Over the past decade(s) I periodically dug up my old X-Com cd and played for weeks like there is no tomorrow.

But with so many better features that "will be" in openxcom, I treated the original like it was some unpatched inferior version.  Like I'd stopped playing Caesar1,2,3 after Caesar 4.

Funny, I find myself playing the original X-Com more and more... I wonder why. :P

After I discovered this place, I  started to play X-Com on PC and PSX version on my Nexus One.  ;D

How's the performance of the PlayStation emulator on your Nexus One?

I maybe a noob on this but why run PSX version on Nexus One?  Does it only run PSX games?

The performance of PSX emulator is much  better than Dos Box for android.

Which is ironic because the performance of X-COM PSX is much worse than X-COM DOS. :P
