  • I still haven't picked this game up. I want it so bad!
  • Somewhere out there...beyond the sea...is a wild turkey that still is subjected to dial up speeds and the inability to print his coupons for seven dollars off an oil change. Call today at 1800-FIXATURKEYLIFEBEFOREDEPRESSIONSETSIN. Toll free of course.
  • That new soldier looks pretty cool. My only question is: when you get the new soldier can you use his new class for other soldiers?
  • Personally, I think all of the DLC for XCOM has been absolutely terrible. 7 dollars for a little variety in council missions, some customization options, and a single unique soldier? Not for me. Then again, Firaxis has never impressed me with their DLC, particularly compared to its cost.
  • Finally! Some better helmet options.

  • DLC, DLC, DLC, and more DLC. . .
  • Looking great.

  • 4 great DLCs, one day. Dragonborn, BF3 Aftermath, AC3 DLC, and this.

  • Probably will pick this up after I finish the main story.

  • Makes me want to get back into XCOM.

  • Got the DLC on PS3, now the game wont load, tried it on a second PS3, also crashed it. Now I get no Xcom. Sad day

  • They need to have dlc for a variety of death animations.  I would definitely pay for that.

  • Will definitely grab this after Im done with exams and can play more.

  • Hope I get this game for Christmas. I'm not into strategy games that much, probably because I rarely play games on PC, but this game looks awesome. If it's as good as I've heard it's been, DLC will be a welcome addition.
  • I think I spoke of some fixes this game needed in my blog.

  • This game looks really awesome. To bad I suck at Strategy games.
  • SWEEEEET.

  • I would have to say this sounds a bit pricey. There doesn't seem to be enough playable content to put out 6.99 for. The customization seems cool but it still seems like too much money.
