If you do this this might be of interest:- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Carrier-Command-Gaea-Mission-DVD/dp/B008AGWIII/ref=pd_rhf_ee_s_cp_4 It looks like its been given a modern day update (in the style of the new X-Com game) and might be worth a look. However whilst I will buy X-Com on release day I think I'll wait for the reviews on this one.
Yes - it's by my favourite developer Bohemia Interactive. If you want to get a sense of how the beta went then check out the forums here; http://forums.bistudio.com/forumdisplay.php?80-CARRIER-COMMAND-GAEA-MISSION The beta was a very early cut of the game and needed some work, but as it has been a good six months since that was released, we are all reasonably confident that it's going to be a good game.
