| | AVault | PC | X-Com: Interceptor Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) |
 | | X-COM: Interceptor is Microprose's fourth entry into the unbelievably popular X-COM series, with a twist: The turn-based tactical combat has been replaced by real-time, fast-paced space simulator action, a la X-Wing. |
 | | In Interceptor, though, the battleground is as far removed from the farms, waterways, and mega-cities of Earth as you can get. |
 | | The Lightning II light fighter sacrifices armament for increased speed and maneuverability; the Firestar multi-role fighter is a good all-purpose ship, with a good balance of speed and firepower; and the Super Avenger heavy bomber can be considered the Y-Wing of the game, slow and lumbering but thickly armored and packed with heavy weapons. |
