They basically just admitted their actual intentions ("We have a valuable IP, and FPS games are popular. Let's slap the name on it, old fans be damned."), all the while pointing out one of the most tortured and painful comparisons I've ever heard. It's kinda funny, because the reaction most of us would have to Ray Charles doing his music in Kanye West's style is one of absolute revulsion. I don't think that's what Chris Hartman was intending, but then again, I don't think he quite understands - or cares - the powerful effect this is going to have on people that actually liked X-COM back in the day.
This is just further proof: the casuals run the industry at large in 2011. Fans who made X-COM popular and iconic are largely irrelevant due to sheer attrition.
