I always thought this game was over-rated.
I give it cred for it's fun value once you get into it.
But ANY game that requires such a steep learning curve has severe balancing problems. This is a large hind-sight and a very negative impact to the game, they should at least have made it more accesible to newer players, as even the lowest difficulty is nearly impossible to new-comers.

So in theory, if the average X-Com fan gave this a 9.5, it'd give it something like a 8.9.

I learned it in a couple of weeks. I reckon it's fantastic. The learning curve is brutal, but that's the way it is.

Well I don't doubt it's quality when it comes to having fun, but some people will give up before they even get to the fun.
That and it's arsenal of bugs are about it's only faults.

i downloaded ufo defense from this site and attempted to run it in dos box since it was not working on my 2.6 ghz windows 2000 computer.

is this the windows version? because when i try to open the exe in dos box it says 'this program cannot be run in dos mode'

if it is the windows version, how do i run it?

sorry. this must certainly be redundant.

thanks in advance

o wait, nevermind

i had the same problem as a previous user!

my winzip decided not to unzip all the files!

thanks anyway :)

looking forward to playing again, even though i already beat this game i love it!!!


what are your opinions on apocalypse? i tried playing it once, many years ago, but i wasnt patient enough to get into it, but i will give it another shot after this one!

on a last note, THIS WEBSITE RULES!!!!

Cheers. All I can say is - read just up the page.

Use the blue Sectoid icon. If that doesn't work then use the one that looks like the sun.

:not_ok:

I didn't like this game at all. Why is there two different UFO's execution files in the file anyway?
