Ironworks Gaming Forum - View Single Post - looking for a good XCOM-like game

I'm suffering from a strong squad-tactic addiction!

I bought both Commandos 2 and Fallout tactics from the bargain bin.
The first one is really cool. Good AI, nice graphics, good mission objectives and a lot more. But it is more a sneak-puzzle than a combat game (up to the Kwai river bridge mission, at least).
I've just tried mission 1 of fallout tactics. So far, although the combat system is much better, AI is not as good (you can shoot like a madman, no enemy will hear you if he's 20 yards away). That may change as i go deeper in the game.

I miss the good ol' days of XCOM. Anybody has a title to suggest?
