What Gamespot Users have to say about UFO: Aftershock
- Rating:8.7
The hard part is getting to run. I hope my tips help you. Excellent game. This coming from a JA2 and X-com addict .
This is the most fun I've had since playing JA2 and X-com. Very good squad based combat system combined with resource and research based gameplay. While it's not X-com 3 it has alot of elements of X-com in it. ... Read Full Review

Enjoyable game if you liked the original game play!
I absolutely enjoyed this game. I have liked all the games in the UFO series however. It is true that the game wont present you with the worlds most advanced graphics and the game play is very much like the last UFO ga... Read Full Review

Made in the spirit of X-Com, but definitely a different game. Real time tactics combined with empirebuilding-like play.
A lot of people seem to make the mistake of assuming this is an X-Com game or derivative thereof. It's not. It's certainly heavily inspired by the X-Com series, but Altar's attempted to create a game like the classic, ... Read Full Review

It succeeds where its predecessor failed! But fails where Aftermath succeeded!
My impression of the game is/was "Now what the f**k have you done!" When compared to UFO: Aftermath, the followup does improve on some of the aspects but immediatly fails on that what made the original enjoyable. T... Read Full Review

Gimmi a break when will THEY understand that we want the good old fun of the original UFO series.
The UFO game series was a hit for a reasons: it was fun to play and innovative, I still can't compare any game of the genre to the good old UFO Apocalypse. I mean come on, you had a whole city to play with and you could ... Read Full Review

This is a great game that has been rushed in production and was unjustly punished for that in the gamespot review.
I'm not quite sure why a lot of people including gamespot's reviewer are putting this game down so much. In response to that here is a very lengthy review to help defend the great things in this game that have been overs... Read Full Review

When aliens became tuna fish
It's quite an improvement! Aftermath had aliens looking like potatoes, Aftershock turned them into tuna fish, jellyfish and another sorts of fish. The storyline is brilliant! First they say a Council leaves Earth f... Read Full Review

One of the best games. Ever.
I was shocked when I saw the review of Aftershock Gamespot did. I barely made myself to buy the game, I only did it becouse there is nothing closer to the games of old now available. True, Aftershock isn't X-COM or it's ... Read Full Review
