XCOM: Enemy Unknown hits store shelves in just a week, and Firaxis and 2K have created a little YouTube experience for those who want to get an idea of what a game of their new turn based strategy plays like, but don’t want to download a huge demo to do so. Get an idea of how the game plays by choosing from multiple options and watch as your choices play out for you, allowing you to see different tactics – and consequences – of your actions, not unlike that of a “Choose Your Own Adventure” novel. Turn to page 56 to wait for XCOM: Enemy Unknown to drop on Tuesday, October 9th for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC, or turn to page 78 to watch the video below the break.
I've been gaming since my dad made the bad decision of buying me a Nintendo when I was four years old. Every day I'd find myself with my face glued to a TV screen, punching away at buttons, getting furious with Bowser, Dr. Wily, and those freakin' birds in Ninja Gaiden. Since then I have failed to get my parents to play any board game with me, I sold my full copy of Earthbound with box and guide for $300 to some dude in Austria for rent money, and I still believe in Nintendo even after all these years.
