The Bureau (ex-x-com reboot shooter thing) is back

Here’s the live action trailer.  
Sooooo yeah. Thoughts?  
I was personally really hyped for this when it was announced (I had no idea what a x-com was)  
The setting, the weird geometry ships, the crazy x-files goo, it all looked pretty neat. Now? Eh, could still pretty neat. The live action trailer, while also pretty neat, seems kinda like a waste of time. I’d rather them wait and show us something from the actual game.  
I can’t think of a better name for it than “The Bureau” though. That’s a freaking awesome name for something like this.

I’ll admit that it contains some neat ideas…but calling it x-com was a bad idea. X-com is its own beast entirely, and calling a tactical TPS x-com would (and did) come across as a purely name-recognition marketing ploy.
 
That being said, I’ll give the game a chance, but only if there is more to it than shooting with some minor other aspects thrown in. I certainly don’t want another Bioshock Infinite

I never said it was bad, just ok. See here to read my thoughts on Infinite.
 
I’ll admit you have spurned me to get round to writing up another verbose, generally discombobulated forum post discussing the state of gaming in relation to the means of how we interact with them…and don’t worry, as of the current draft, I don’t once use the word “Kinaesthetics” :P
