Well, bollocks to that. I'd rather wait until 2012, when they finally come out with a remake. I bet it'll run on the Source engine. And it'll have 30% less moronic-looking purple bodysuit comic book reject character models.

Look up "UFO: Extraterrestrials". It's pretty much exactly what you described.

I just installed Xcom from your site but im having problems.

I downloaded the windows version, it works perfect except for the sound, i really like the sound in xcom as it creates the atmosphere like no other game ive ever played ..... so:

I installed the DOS version in the Dosbox window but now i have no sound at all, not even effects, i do notice however that you have all music files available on the xcom page, is this to solve the problem or something?
if it is i dont know what to do or where to put them.

Anyway i tried searching these 200 odd pages of information, i found alot of people with the same problem have posted but no solution has worked for me, i tried making the sound settings 220, 7, 1 blah blah but that doesnt work, i tried starting with the go, full, short blah blah modes but none work either. Please help, all this reading about the game really gets you rearing to play it.

Im running XP if that helps.

A Beginner's Guide to DOSBox will have you playing the game in no time.
