UFO: Enemy Unknown (as the original UK version is known) is an all-time classic - how can they even think of remaking it? It had better be a damn good remake, this is sacred ground they're treading on!
Slightly more seriously, this is perhaps one of the greatest games ever released. Sort of like chess with aliens and plasma rifles. My mate and I used to play it literally for hours on end (and I do mean literally; the Amiga would go on in the morning and we'd still be playing it when the Sun came up the next morning). I found the PC version somewhere on the web ages ago and I still play it occasionally, though not for quite so long. I only hope this big budget remake really does what they're claiming; I'd hate to see it suffer the same fate as Planet of the Apes after Tim Burton got hold of it.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
