Another new guy here just saying Hi.
I've been waiting for this remake for probably close to 18 years now so kudos for not straying too far from the original. Looking forward to the final product.
Short story:
When I was 12 I collected coins and small paper bills for close to 8 months in a ziplock bag, I did not know for what. One day I read about X-Com in a PC Gamer magazine many years ago. At that point I knew where that money was going, and so I purchased my first PC game, much to my fathers objections and "wasting" of my money. I'm still amazed that such fun and addictive game was made so many years ago, one of the best games I've ever spent money on to this day.
I still have the original box, books, and floppies (and copies) in a card board box somewhere in the basement.
