The Bureau: XCOM Declassified

Played the entire game on Deck, had a blast. If you love campy alien invasion stories and Mass Effect 2 I'd pick it up on sale

i love this style of Xcom played it when i was young picked it up recently to play again and im in love with it. highly recommended if you dont like the new Xcom games.

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is a good game. I played through the original series of games that were rebooted on PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. I think The Bureau is a prequel of some sorts, since it's dealing with the same alien invasion theme as Enemy Unknown, but with a 50s inspired style instead of the modern, contemporary style of the future found in XCOM: Enemy Unknown, its DLC (Enemy Within), and XCOM 2. Anybody into real-time 3rd person shooters with a bit of tactical and strategy style combat won't be disappointed with The Bureau: XCOM Declassified.

After a ten year break I came back thinking I'd finally beat this one. Nope. Enemies still spawn endlessly and kill you almost instantly. You can barely even shoot before you either run out of ammo or have to save the AI only to discover that they're stuck standing on each others shoulders in a wall. Also has stability issues and nearly crashed my computer when it froze up trying to exit. Game is trash, man.

Good fun!

Un XCOM con una nueva perpectiva de acción y con la ambientación de época... Como todos los juegos de la saga, llega un momento en el que el juego se vuelve bastante complicado y necesitas tener bastante subidos a tus reclutas y con buenas armas (y en este caso, habilidades especiales también) Si te gustan los juegos de la saga es un MUST HAVE

Look, this game starts very strong and has a general if simple premise. The era is fun, the secret org vibes are great, the wacky alien stuff works for what the game is going for up until the 3/4 hour mark, then the entire game just looses any sense of pacing and flow. The story introduces and kill villains, characters make strange and disjointed statements compared to how the dialogue choices point you to allowing you to do, and the combat gets extremely boring after they run out of ideas in a hand full of missions. The vision is there, but the execution suffers. Its worth a playthrough if you really are craving that 1960s cold war or twilight zone feeling.

Got the game for free on some sale years back. Was gonna give it a fair chance. It crashes in the first sequence. Hot, steamin', stinkin', poopin' garbadge.
