Title: The Bureau: XCOM Declassified
Post by: Xessive on Friday, April 26, 2013, 10:13:22 AM

XCOM reborn as The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, hits Aug. 20 (http://www.polygon.com/2013/4/26/4268456/the-bureau-xcom-declassified-hits-aug-20)

Awesome, interesting, I am piqued.

I remember THIS thread about that XCOM Tac-Shooter from 2K Marin... (http://www.overwritten.net/forum/index.php?topic=6497.0)

So, it has went from a FPS to now a TPS shooter? Interesting....

Also, I find it interesting - and probably smart - that they're using the XCOM tag as a subtitle, instead of the main title. Brand awareness (XCOM is in there) and letting the player know this is maybe something different (from the normal XCOM) by making it a subtitle.
