XCOM shooter beamed away

2K has removed the page for their XCOM shooter as well as all the preview videos from their official Youtube page. The game, unveiled at E3 2010, was supposed to be a first-person-shooter set in a version of 1962 America being invaded by aliens and has long been rumored to be in development trouble.

A Superannuation rumor report from last week suggests that the 2K Marin developed shooter may be rebranded as The Bureau, dissassociating it from the X-COM brand. A 2K survey in October 2012 asked respondants if they’d like the game if it was turned into a third-person cover shooter with a less-expensive digital download size.
