Movies to watch while playing Long War

Post by Jackal »

Okay, so I have netflix and amazon and on demand....what are some good movies to watch while playing xcom

my all time favorite is
Aliens 2

I just watch Spectral, a netflix original, and it LOOKED like it would be good and very xcom-ish, and it wasn't bad, but it turned out to be the opposite of an xxom-ish movie.

Did you mean... "while waiting for the patch 1.3"? :)

I just ordered the first season DVD of "Expanse". The trailer I viewed looked interesting. I also favor Aliens 2 and Alien Resurrection and of course Serenity.

The Expanse is a great show with almost realistic space scenes, good storyline and excellent feeling.
You won't regret it!

:D

Darker,

LOL, that is a funny suggestion. I totally watched that on Comcast on demand when I was playing xcom2 when i first got it... it helped me justify re-doing some missions that I probably shouldn't have ... LOL

I think I go in a bit different direction with my XCom2 playthroughs, where I try to make some unique cool superhero style characters and watch similarly themed shows, Agents of Shield I feel fit pretty well for it and the various Marvel movies too.
