I was just peeking around online to see if X-Com 2 was abandonware yet (I actually own it, I was just curious) and I found that it's selling for.... $30.

It's a great game, but a game that old is not worth $30, regardless of quality, except whilst rare... which the game is definitely not.

Has anyone else found a game selling like this?

Edit: Ugh, I really ought to pay attention to the forum names before I post. Stupid Full Throttle thread tricking me >.>

You should check Ufo aftermath or Ufo aftershock, they are cheap and really similar to Xcom (unfortunatly not good as X-com series)
If you have patience you can wait a great title...UFO: Extraterrestials

Google is you're friend... but yeah - 30$? Only with manual and X-com soldier action-figure.

Unfortunately UFO: Extraterrestrials is not the game we were awaiting for... I played it for the Italian localization and sincerely... as fan of original Microprose's serie, I can say with no dubt it's a flop. Too many bugs as well as a very poor graphic resolution and technical implementation. Maybe in the next months developers will patch some of these faults (AI is far from hard-to-beat) but now, if you want the best UFO, play the Microprose's title or the (but it is not so good) Cenega's UFO: Afterlight.

Hmm... yeah, I've been looking all around at it and eventually came to that conclusion.

I guess it was too good to be true.
