Aftermath really crosses the line from the X-Com games which are more strategic to games like Silent Storm (I think it is called that) which is really a tactical strategy game.
Whilst I do miss the geoscape element of the game, I think that Aftermath is still a good game.
TfTD not only didn't improve on the orginal's graphics or gameplay, IMO it actually made it worse.
At the start of the game, it is nearly impossible to get anywhere due to the awful weapons you start with, and it doesn't get any easier as the game goes on.
The graphics are worse (more pixellated) and the environment you fight in gets very boring quickly.
Anyway, that's enough ranting.
