An RTS I can visualise. However an FPS would be just plain wrong.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

This is probably the best news I've heard in quite some time. Of any sort.

I've just had to play a couple of rounds of laser squad online. Crappy spectrum graphics rather then the Amiga version. :)

Click Me

Flash based though. :|

I only wanted a quick online game so used the first link I found. It does look as though the XCOM games are abandonware so it is easy to get emulators/downloads, and there are also fan versions that have been updated.
