Overgunned

I built a new PC a few months ago... 3.4 Ghz Dual Core P4... 4 gigs of DDR3 Ram... a graphics card so impressive it needs its own power source... It has 512Mb or Ram by itself... and a HD widescreen monitor polishes out the affair... and what do I do with this machine?

I play a game a 11 year old machine would handle without a sweat.

Though, "Apocalypse" is alot better than I recall initially giving it credit. After playing the first 2 XCOM games again, I have to admit I like this one more now. In part however, I think this is because my tastes have changed.
I believe the XCOM experience is simply better heeled and polished in Apocalypse as opposed to the previous titles. The nuanced details really shine in the title making every little decision an important one. The rest of it holds up real well being both tactically flexible and strategically full of character.

All in all, it aged well despite its prerendered 3d sprites. Of which, the previous XCOM titles seemed to weather the tolls of age much better.
