XCOM: Enemy Within trailer promises metal men or GM soldiers, but not both

xcom_enemy_within_trailer_innit

Do you like gammon? I ask because Firaxis have got their hammy shadow council spokes-bureaucrat to narrate the latest XCOM trailer. It’s framed as a military briefing, but employs bullet point phrases like ‘new units’ that would presumably baffle any video game-illiterate generals in attendance. He makes a strong case for the existence of XCOM: Enemy Within, though – even with the tantalising possibility of mods on the horizon.

A substantial increase in combat effectiveness? Oh, go on then. I’ll take the genetically-modified buffness over the tin folk though, if it’s all the same to you. I didn’t even watch Pacific Rim.

Which’ll you choose?

Thanks, RPS.
