Yes, unfortunately UFO:AI doesn't have the same capturing atmosphere as the original series, though I find it to be a better clone than the afterlight, aftershock and similar releases.

Is there a link to click on to download the game? I quite possibly am being dense, but I don't see a download option! I love this game, haven't played it since high school!

Thanks,

The game is a NO GO meaning it's protected/sold. Can't be downloaded, sorry.

[EDITED]

For the Dos Version of the game.

I have paid, over the years, about £100 to get the first three games when they first came out, paying full retail price. Yes that means I have the boxes and fat manuals, and they look good on my shelf, but the fact is I have got more entertainment out of these games over the last 10 years than any other £100 collection of games I have played!

Remember, games like X-Com have 100's of hours of entertainment in them, so you have to value them on that basis. I have never been a rich man, so gravitated to RPG's because they cost the same but gave 10 times the gameplay entertainment. It has always surprised me, given the greed of the games industry, that games like Morrowind and Oblivion and Fallout 3, with 100 hour gameplay minimums, aren't sold for £79.99! Mind you, maybe then the 12 hour games we get, like Left 4 Dead, Mirror Cracked and The Longest Journey: Dreamfall would have to retail at £9.99!!!!

I bought X-Com with Master of Orion in 1 Box!
Both games where really worth the money. I replayed those games allot.

It's funny how those old games have such high replay value than those you have nowadays.

wtf
