I haven't played Enemy Unknown *dodges thrown boot* but did they characterize the NPCs there? I thought a big part of the game was that faceless government agents were being fed into the alien meat grinder as governments try desperately to stop the invasion.
It was. There were mindless missions that pretended to offer something different, but always degraded to "if it moves and, it is not you, kill it, a lot". It was also far less of a meat grinder, than a kiddie ride (until modded), except for all the magical bugs where enemies appear out of nowhere and kill half the team. I hear they just got that patched, so perhaps I will play it again . So really it was just a third person version of this mouthful (tB:XD), though to mod EU we were forced to hack the EXE. If I thought tB was worth the time I would probably find out if it can be fixed (aka modded by those the know what they are doing). Since it is too generically lame and with far too small an audience, I will go back to my mega-mod for Xenonauts (due out sometime in 20<mumble, mumble>).
HalfTangible - No. Fire codes prevented it, unfortunately. Yahtzee will have to wait until he is state-side, where I believe it is called the Pizza Royale. To date it has only claimed 639 lives, so it is still legal in most states.
