Up to the top you go.

Game comes out in a month. Pre-ordered it on Steam and I can't wait to get playing.

I've pumped quite a few hours into this already. Doesn't have the same level of freedom that the original had, but it is still damn fun, and damn hard.

wow I suck at this game. 2 days in and ive lost 4 council members. Maybe i'll just start over. Too hard to keep panic levels from rising in different places at once. Only so many godamn satellites I can build for christs sake

It's kind of formulaic in the panic rising sense. I've only lost one country so far because I don't care about Africa (lol racism, but they don't pay shit anyways, so they're not worth the benefits I would sacrifice by going to that terror site over say Asia's)

must be getting close to the end? just got an achievement for doing an autopsy on every kind of alien after whacking the ethereal on the cloaked ship and stealing the blue ball

need to run a few more missions and get the last couple of satellites set up so i can build the special training facility and exploit the psi-link thingy, then take on the big huge earthquake-causing ship that just showed up and win teh game
