If it wasn't for Firaxis' game, then I wouldn't have discovered Xenonauts any time soon.
5 minutes after looking at Xenonauts website, I preordered...
I'll definitely try Firaxis' game at some point (I *have* to see the antfarm base in action), but this sounds much more like the original. True to the tactics and no "dumbed down" inventory.
I could go on, but just wanted to say, Firaxis bought me here, so probably more people will come to enjoy Xenonauts because of Firaxis.
