I’ve not played anything more thanturn-based strategy gamesin recent months, years.Massive Chalice.Invisible, Inc.Fire Emblem: Awakening.XCOM: Enemy Unknown. I started anEnemy Withinplaythrough one evening last year and suddenly it was 4am. “Not again,” I thought, unwilling to lose a few dozen more hours to the game.

My resolve has lasted months now, thoughInvisible, Inc.andMassive Chalicewere my nicotine gum and I dropped as many hours in them as I did sucking on smokes…anyways, whatever, the point is that I’m going to playXCOMagain, don’t judge me.
