I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I am thrilled with the multiplayer addition. I still remember playing 'co-op' with my friends on the original xbox...each of us controlling x amount of people on the away mission.

I didn't like the ideas of mix-n-match teams at first, but I think it could be interesting.

I have my copy pre-ordered...can't wait!

Some Germans play through what I think is one of the tutorial missions. http://youtu.be/muvjy3yEn1c

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

 bought it for my friend's birthday.  He's a long time fan of the game.  I'm waiting for the release and his appreciation to see if it's worth it.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

This is pretty much one of the funnest interpretations of X-Com I've played.

Mr. Grey

a little over 2 weeks before release...I haven't been this excited for a video game in years.

I couldn't decide if I wanted it for xbox or pc....so I pre-ordered both  :D
