<strong>[ Interview ]</strong>
<p>The tireless X-Com experts at <a href="http://www.strategycore.co.uk/" target="_blank" title="SC">StrategyCore</a> bring you an interview with the team behind X-Com: Colonisation, a project attempting to expand on the original X-Com rather than just remake it.</p><blockquote><p>What's the background story of XCom : Colonisation?
As I said, Colonisation is a prequel to UFO and other XCom titles and so it takes place before any of the games we already know. Significantly before the original games in fact! Any XCom fan will be able to quote to perfection the UFO end game. That is of course the alien brain claiming that Mars was once a paradise like earth and that it was they who seeded Earth all those years ago. Colonisation is set approximately 65million years before UFO and is played out on that paradise planet that the brain spoke of. In its simplest form, the game follows a human-alien civil war on Mars but there is of course much more to it than that! During the course of the game the player will get to see exactly what the brain was lying about and what was true. It's going to be a real eye opener to anyone who's played the original games! A more in depth background story can be found in the <a href="http://www.strategycore.co.uk/forums/index.php?showforum=74" target="_blank">Project Colonisation forums</a> on this website. </p></blockquote><p>Now let's all wish them luck and hope they actually finish the thing.</p><p>Read: <a href="http://www.strategycore.co.uk/pg/colonisation" target="_blank" title="Interview">X-Com: Colonisation Interview</a></p><p>Spotted @ <a href="http://www.strategycore.co.uk/">StrategyCore</a></p>
