Any X-Com fans?
Man, have I just showed my age or what?

I'm using Dosbox on Win XP to run both X-Com: UFO Defense and X-Com: Terror From the Deep.

1. This was a great game,
but I usually sucked at it no matter what the scenario. I really did like it though. I just couldn't seem to find the right balanced strategy to beating those damn aliens!:banghead:

2. I remember playing XCOM
It was amazing. Havent touched it in years and I wonder where it is.

I did find this:

An open source remake of XCOM...

Looks cool but I will wait for version 1.0

3. You can usually find it for $5 on the net
And you can run it in Dosbox.

4. I like it a lot
I'm using the Gold Edition, which runs more or less under Windows XP.
