xcom-enemy-unknown
I deleted some save games from within the the game and now it seems that I cannot save games anymore, only on rare occasions when a new mission begins. Also a new game that I started does not get saved.
Is there a solution which does not involve re-installing?
Found the answer in the Steam Community page for the demo.
Find XCOM's install folder. For Steam, it's the following:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown~/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/XCom-Enemy-Unknown/XCOMDataThen go through to \XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XComGame\Config\ and open up "DefaultEngine.ini" in a text editor like Notepad.
Under the header ; PC Startup movies (CTRL + F for quicker access), delete the "+" before the 4 entries there. Save and start XCOM and the movies should be gone, however your video settings will be reset. Simply reconfigure your resolution and the changes will stick.
Yes, there is. On the Select Difficulty screen, click the "Advanced Options" button to see a check box for this:
Once the tutorial has started, I don't believe there is any way to skip it besides quitting out and starting the game again.

Ok, I found a solution here: Link to 2k-forums, at least for my problem.
Xcom seems to have problems handling to many save games. So, go into your save game folder (e.g.: "C:\Users\\Documents\my games\XCOM - Enemy Unknown\XComGame\SaveData") and delete or move old save games. Et Viola!
