In an early mission of The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, a deer clattered across the pavement of a wrecked college town's main drag as I took my orders. It paused and looked at me, and I at it. Even before this invasion, that deer's world was under constant threat from death-dealing technology beyond its comprehension.… » 8/20/13 9:20am 8/20/13 9:20am

I propose a new rule: no releasing "launch" trailers until the game has actually launched. Now I have to watch this over and over again until The Bureau: XCOM Declassified actually launches, which is tomorrow. Hmph. » 8/19/13 9:40am 8/19/13 9:40am

Video game permadeath is not a concept unique to XCOM but it has, perhaps, its most visceral application in that series.

The developers at 2K Marin working on The Bureau: XCOM Declassified say that they're going to be throwing serious challenge at you. And from what I played a few months ago, this 1962-set prequel to last year's hit release isn't the kind of game that you just coast through.

The folks over at Twitch have been streaming live gameplay demos from E3 all week.
