I've always been amazed at how complex of a game they fit on 4 floppy disks. (UFO Defense)

Time to fire up Dosbox and moslo! (or whatever it's called)

It says it runs 2000/XP only, so they must have updated the .exe file. So, what is the game about anyway? I have heard the name over and over, but have never had the chance to see or play it.

There can be only one. X-com was the best. It will never be surpassed.

X-COM series is great, I have all of them. The first X-COM game is the best game I've ever played. :p:
