UFO: Extraterrestrials - Chaos Concept Review

Well, there's no doubt in my mind that this is a major XCOM clone. If you enjoyed the original you'll love this game. Although, I still think XCOM Apocalypse is better. Basically, the game is played on a map where you see continents and a UFO appears and you have to shoot it down. AFter it's shot down you send your ground units into kill/stun the aliens and capture equipment. And of course, there's loads of science to research and build. Half the fun is arming your units with the aliens weapons and killing them with it.However regular gamers will definitely be turned off by how unpolished this game is. The resolution is set at a low level and cannot be adjusted by the menu. The graphics are barely any better than the original XCOM. You can't control your aircrafts when you send them to intercept the UFOs. They'll basically just follow it and shoot or they'll just hover in the same place and shoot one another. Also, your units can't die so there's not really a big loss that you feel when your unit gets blasted by a UFO. And recruitment is automatic which might be a turn off.It's a clone to XCOM but it just lacks the soul that Microprose put in the games.PROS:
XCOM Clone down to small details
Great assortment of weapons and research to do
Killing UFOS with their own weapons!CONS:
Piss poor graphics especially in the main map
Difficulty level is all over the place. Sometimes the first UFO ground mission contains like 20 aliens sometimes 5.
Rather unpolished game and lacks heart
You can't kneel or allocate time for flash hits or aimed hits - they're automatic

Konung 2 Review

I'm a fan of RPG's, and have played even some poor ones through to completion. That said, I've had root canals that were more fun than this. The game tries to combine genres and, as usual with that attempt, does nothing well. The game looks promising at the character creation screen, but goes rapidly downhill thereafter. The character plods (running, the usual default, is difficult to achieve), switches weapons with no reason, and the combat is hard to control. The map is dreadful. Village management is a pain. Henchmen seem impossible to obtain in the beginning game, and there is no ramp-up in battle. Possibly the game improves in later stages, I have no idea, I gave up. Save your money and buy Sacred.
