Someone needs to ask Xcom's creator what he thinks of this game. As I recall, he was pretty pissed when he first lost Xcom series, wonder what he now thinks of this tragedy of a game.
It will be probably hard to get in touch with them, since brothers Gollop don't have time for their own child, Laser Squad Nemesis. For three years they didn't update the game.

IGN's comments make no sense.

Maybe... No. I don't get it.
Did IGN ever made sense? ;)

Turn-based strategy games are a complex genre. They are, Civilization's gentle, strategic beauty aside, for the hardcore! In case you've been asleep the past 2-3 years, games of this scale (big publisher, big developers) can't afford to appeal just to the hardcore anymore.
Turn-based strategies like Civ are now hardcore... Civs and X-Com are as simple as they get (especially compared to complex economic strategies and tactics like SS/JA2 respectively), you just need to pay attention. Fucking dumb ADD faggots
