We got the chance to check out XCOM: Enemy Unknown at PAX East 2012 and Eric "The Boss" Eckstein let us know why the game’s cinematic experience is so riveting:
"In the middle of issuing orders to a soldier, we cut to an in-game cutscene, eyeing Sectoids who are clustered, almost as if feeding, around a human corpse. They scatter off, and their "turn" begins, seamlessly after the cinematic ends. This happens again later when we meet another race of aliens, Mutons,...

The trailer goes through briefly some of the new aspects of the gameplay, such as using the touchscreens for controlling the camera. Among these changes is the inclusion of GPS support, which tracks actual player movement while playing the game.

Remember 2009, when we were fixated on the original Borderlands? Three years later, having spent countless hours Phase-blasting bandits, we still haven’t had our fill of vault-hunter combat fantasies.

I’ve never seen anything quite like what Ironclad Games is doing with their RTS hit Sins of a Solar Empire.
