Needless to say that the game got bad reviews simply because most people are used to the mindless FPS where you hit the deck raining bullets, and this is not. The game is a turn-based strategy game, its incredible addicting and difficult. The extended tutorial is extremely helpful to see how to properly excavate the game to its full potential. although you literally spend the first half of the game playing catchup for resources and troops, once you get through the fundamentals, the game really kicks off into high gear. Then again, that's just me, maybe for those you pro gamers found it a breeze and just blasted through those aliens, but I still enjoyed being able to command my troops, position them for attack, doing R&D, level up my solders (now 5 to Colonel rank within 6 hours of gameplay), and then ultimately conquering the enemies.
