So frustrating, but I loved that game, so spooly too between turns.

I beat it on hardcore mode and began to feel genuine anguish for all the soldiers who died under my command. Even learnt to protect my favourites by keeping a low level grunt on the squad who's only job it was to capture aliens. The odd grunt would do well enough to level up into a real team member, but mostly they were alien fodder. Brave young men and women standing up to fight the alien horde, only to have their lives callously thrown away by a commander who's interested in upgading tech as cheaply as possible.
Other perfect games:

World of Warcraft (the pvp system alone is a perfect game)
Starcraft
Rocket League
Portal 1&2
