X-COM: UFO Defense aka UFO: Enemy Unknown

It is 1999 and Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) have started appearing with disturbing
regularity in the night skies. Reports of violent human abductions and horrific
experimentation struck terror into the hearts of millions. The mass public hysteria has only
served to expose Earth's impotence against a vastly superior technology.
On December 11, 1998, representatives from the worlds most economically powerful countries
gathered secretly in Geneva. After much debate, the decision was made to establish a covert
independent body to combat, investigate and defeat the alien threat. This organization would be
equipped with the world's finest pilots, soldiers, scientists and engineers, working together as
one multi-national force. This organization was named the Extraterrestrial Combat Unit: X-Com.
