Thanks for the demo review and sharing the vid. I was already super excited for this title and this demo only heightened my anticipation. I am placated a little when I actually sit down and realize that October 9th really isnt too far away now

Thanks for the demo Kaz, you're becoming a regular celebrity 'round these parts. I can tell I want this game (just found out about it today) because while watching your vid I found myself saying "no, don't send him around that way, there's no cover! send him over there instead!"

I'm going to get this for PC, but I 'm such a huge fan that I will get the Xbox version too to play with some friends.
I have been playing Jagged Alliance Back in Action, to get back in track with Strategy-RPG-Turnbased games

Game is UNBELIEVABLE!
That's all I can say

That's a very short but sweet review.

Out of curiosity, what difficulty are you playing on? This seems like the kind of game where that can make a huge difference.

Yes, I'm playing in classic, no Ironman. I will leave that for the 2nd playground.
Game it's amazing. You really feel like in command of everything, and the creepy atmosphere during missions will keep you on your toes.

Agree 100% with Kaz. I do have one small issue with the game and that is the hit percentage. Every soldier has a to hit percentage based on distance etc. I'm not convinced those percentages are based on any kind of reality. I was literally standing next to an alien and the game said my hit percentage was only 30%. I realize I was noob soldier but I'd like to believe I could hit something next to me with a better than 30% chance.

Other than that the sheer amount of decision making in this game is staggering. Not only that those decisions have ramifications as well. When your soldier dies because you made a stupid mistake you actually feel bad. That to me is the sign of a good game: when your decisions mean something.
