Rock Paper Shotgun: RPS Recommended - "XCOM 2 is a classic in its own right and as good a sequel as I can remember."

Hi guys, our review is up as well.

http://www.gry-online.pl/S020.asp?ID=11005 (polish)

I gave it 8,5/10

Gameplay is amazing, my only complaint is that the camera works even worse than before and there's too much similiarty in mechanics/enemies/story compared to previous entries. If you wanted to see some inovations, well.... you won't find it here

Still, great game worth playing!

Sounds good but a time/round limit on many missions is killer for me

Will update with more reviews once they get posted/go up.

R3TRODYCE · Feb 1, 2016

Tizoc · Feb 1, 2016

FelipeMGM · Feb 1, 2016

Noray · Feb 1, 2016

Essential/10 is pretty good

Dennis · Feb 1, 2016

I was expecting great scores to be honest.

Yup. Seems about right to me.

Hoo-doo · Feb 1, 2016

Hell, even if it is just 'more XCOM' I already know I need to play this game.

Great scores. Have been mostly in the dark on this game aside from the GB quicklook.

Gamer @ Heart · Feb 1, 2016

I'm so fucking sad I can't play this yet. The first one CONSUMED me in a way few games ever have.

And yet, I will read and watch all these reviews and make my anguish worse.

ANDS · Feb 1, 2016

No controller support? Are you kidding? Why do this? It was there front and center in the first game?

ZeroX03 · Feb 1, 2016

Happy First of February. The new champion has landed.

You know shit's good when Polygon gives it an amazing score.

CloudWolf · Feb 1, 2016

I completely forgot that this game was coming out this week. I've got no money now, but in March this and Darkest Dungeon will be the first things I buy.

Oppo · Feb 1, 2016

edit: Oh and these reviews mean I'll feel safe preordering the game. Can't wait to spend my weekend with this!

GrantDaNasty · Feb 1, 2016

GIMME GIMME GIMME!

Friday can't arrive soon enough!

Random17 · Feb 1, 2016

Good scores, good news. Audio desync is odd but will hopefully be fixed quickly. I'm mostly excited about the mods that could make this game a solid 10/10.

My reaction is both Dan's facial expression and Jeff's hootin' and hollering.

Spacecowboy77 · Feb 1, 2016

Oh god, how the hell am I going to make it till Friday?

UnrealEck · Feb 1, 2016

Ahahahahahahaha that reviewer got screwed by the "oh 80% or higher it's a sure fire" line of thinking. Sometimes you just get unlucky.

Souless Squirrel · Feb 1, 2016

Damn they are killing it with this entry I can't wait to pop some alien brains on friday.

Sagittal · Feb 1, 2016

Please sell well, it would be great to see a console port.

Litri · Feb 1, 2016

Ok, I'm buying it. Gotta finish Xenoblade Chronicles X first though.
