UFO Trilogy review for the PC

UFO Trilogy brings together on one disc the series of UFO games, dating back to 2003's UFO Aftermath and including this year's Extraterrestrials. We think that the earliest game here is still the best, albeit in a disappointing collection - it's clear that the series didn't get better as it progressed. We've got a detailed look at UFO Trilogy, with shots of the games involved, so you can make your own mind up about the strategy/action game.

They came from outer space. We think we should send them back On this one, innocent looking disc is a collection of sub-par turnbased- cum-real-time strategy games, that form the UFO series. With the oldest (and by far, the best) game coming from 2003, and the newest one being released just a few months ago in February, this is a hotchpotch collection that varies greatly in quality. So let's start with the good. UFO Aftermath, the oldest game in the collection is also by far the greatest game in the series so far. This isn't to say that it's comparatively very good, but it's certainly better than the other rubbish here. The action is divided into two stages: a tactical and strategic one, with the former being small scale combat between your troops and a few enemies on the planet's surface, and the latter taking place in outer space. Whizzing the 3D model of the world around to pass the time, every now and then a message box will pop up to tell you a mission is available on the planet, and it's up to you to accept the mission, before carrying out the objectives in the strangely turn-based but not surroundings.
