sorry but the problem persists. Is only a reload of the same page one time and another.

is this game really not as good as the first? the screenshots in the review looked awesome...im contemplating whether to download it or not (its gonna take a few hours)...i played 10mins of the second one and did not like it whatsoever (the whole underwater sea thing seemed too far fetched...and the graphics werent as good for some reason)

It is indeed clearly inferior to the original. The best way to play this game is to play it without thinking it's part of the Xcom triology. It's a pretty slightly above average game if not played as one of the successors to one of the best game of all time...

"Guest" is right. The download/"Get It" link seems to be broken. It just loads the review site again. Please have a look into this.

It's... different. At first I thougt it was a cheap attempt to get more money by sticking "X-com" into the title, but I soon changed my mind. You'll either love it or hate it - just don't expect it to be like x-com 1 or 2. And don't play it in turn-based mode, as real-time is far better and in fact easier (you can pause the game to give orders etc.).

Bottom line is you can't really be sure of it until you've tried it. I find it a very entertaining and interesting game (although not as good as x-com 1).

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie on this site. I can't dowload XCOM Apocalypse. I have still the original CD but it don't work with XP.

Could you please, make the dowload available.

See you

The download is available. You are probably trying to use a multi-download program, which is why you can't download. Disable that and download it normally and it should work fine.

Oh, noes. I just redownloaded the game and started a new campaign on the medium difficulty setting. Diablo has just been taken over, and my sources confirm me that they will attack me at 17:05 hours. (it's 14:00 hours) Is there a way to regain Diablo's trust?
