The doors of E3 may have closed, but the screenshots keeps on coming and X-Com ones have been uncovered in the latest content drop.
2K's previously described X-Com as "the re-imagining of one of gaming's most storied and beloved franchises", claiming that it "combines the strategic core of the groundbreaking franchise with a suspense-filled narrative and distils it into a tense and unique first-person shooter experience".
Have a look at the X-Com E3 trailer if you haven't seen it already and don't forget the screenshots below.

I... can't... stand... X-COM as an FPS. My god I'm starting to wish this game style was never invented. This is #$%@^ travesty. Disgusting.

I know what you mean. It's a sad day when everything has to be in first person with ultra realistic graphics but the truth is that if they went with more of the classic X-Com strategy/point-and-click route it just would not sell as well. At least be content that the franchise we all love is still alive. In the mean time if you miss the old style, grab yourself a copy of UFO Extraterrestrials.

More games should be set in the forties and fifties! LA Noire has proved it's a viable (read: popular enough to sell shed-loads) setting and there's a wealth of media to draw inspiration from.
The Blob videogame anyone?!? Anyone?!
