Recipe for Disaster: X-COM INTERCEPTOR

Excessive cursor ghosting is the only fun you have to look forward to.
Enjoy it while you can.

5 cups Least Interesting Bits of X-Com With all the Pretty Sprites Excised
1 Space Station Made of FOUR ENTIRE POLYGONS
1 Reasonably Amusing "I Brake For Sectoids" Bumper Sticker
3 tbsp. Worst Parts of the Old X-Wing Game
1 Total Refusal to Run Gracefully on Modern Hardware
8 gal. Mediocrity

Mix dry ingredients in a big, crappy bowl. Rub Mediocrity all over body until rash forms. Then throw the rest of it out, or whatever. Nobody cares.
Disappoints 8.

Alternate recipe: Place large iron bucket over head. Bang bucket with wooden spoon for three hours or until unconscious. Easily as fun as playing X-COM Interceptor.

Pictured: Worst part of game.
Also pictured: Best part of game (the bumper sticker).


Addendum: It is thoroughly ridiculous that you have to lead your targets so much. You are firing lasers over a distance of kilometers. THIS IS NOT SCIENCE.
