You're thinking about Alliance. That one's dead, buried and exorcised.
The "new" XCOM game doesn't have any direct connection with Alliance.
I know that very well. But there cannot be a difference from one or the other in my mind. I don't see why there should even be one.

FPS games are not the kind of games which have much difference in their gameplay. It didn't really evolve much if at all since Doom. Okay, you can strafe now and you can use your mouse to aim. And except that? You still see your gun in your hands in front of you, you aim, you shoot, you kill. That's a generic FPS for ya.

I guess the same can be said from most genres, but no other genres have been nailed as often than FPSes.

If and when that Xcom FPS get out I'll expect exactly what I saw in that magazine over 10 years ago. Because that's what it will be anyways.
