2K Have released a new trailer for XCOM. this trailer appears to be all in-game, either in-game CGi or gameplay. the trailer highlights the games 50's USA Style as well as the graphical strangeness this 50's style has the black goo enemies. the trailer appears to show a gameplay mechanic where you have to record/take pictures of the deceased, and also the FPS mechanics. The FPS appears to have some similarities with BioShock, especially in the way the main character carries grenades.
