Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: stray on January 12, 2010, 12:05:26 AM More Xcom "rumors" popping up actually.
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Margalis on January 12, 2010, 12:23:11 AM I love X-Com but I have a great deal of trouble seeing how it could come back in anything other than an awful bastardized form, most likely a squad based FPS.
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: NiX on January 12, 2010, 05:27:26 AM Their site is getting hammered. Only loads text for me.
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Trippy on January 12, 2010, 06:22:37 AM No it looks like that cause they fail at HTML (their paths in their WordPress setup are wrong).
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Mrbloodworth on January 12, 2010, 06:29:24 AM No it looks like that cause they fail at HTML (their paths in their WordPress setup are wrong). That's just irrational. Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: KallDrexx on January 12, 2010, 06:42:24 AM And the site is password protected.
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: kildorn on January 12, 2010, 07:16:16 AM More Xcom "rumors" popping up actually. Naturally, it'll be a sequel to Xcom:TFTD, and your squad will land at rapture and have to take it back over. Because I've become convinced no good can ever come of trying to redo a classic. Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Mosesandstick on January 12, 2010, 07:28:15 AM There's a countdown to the end of the hour now.
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: kildorn on January 12, 2010, 07:31:45 AM Hey, their web admin passes the dumbass test. The counter is based on your system clock, but at least it doesn't have an auto redirect to the new site when it hits 0!
Hey look! It's a... blog. Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Sky on January 12, 2010, 08:10:25 AM I love X-Com but I have a great deal of trouble seeing how it could come back in anything other than an awful bastardized form, most likely a squad based FPS. After Colonization I'm done pining away for remakes of old favorites.I would like a Simgolf, but they'd probably remake that in the Civ 4 engine somehow. Thank God! Hopefully this means Freedom Force will come back somehow! :awesome_for_real: Unfortunately, I think that ship has sailed due to poor popularity. No idea why, they were awesome games.Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Mosesandstick on January 12, 2010, 09:43:12 AM I just earned myself 15 points for finding a 404 :awesome_for_real:
The blog is a game itself!

I'm going on remembered dislike when it came out. I'm not sure I agree about the graphics; I don't like the Civ4 engine, though. I am able to look past it for FFH2, I should give Col a whirl if it comes back around on a steam deal.
Title: Re: Irrational Games relaunching Post by: Teleku on January 12, 2010, 03:07:03 PM Eh, maybe thats just the difference then, I love the Civ4 engine.
