Alpha Protocol

I bought this game despite already owning it simply because I felt it was right to support the people who made it available again. This game is an extremely fun game with a very enjoyable dialogue system and a huge variety of ways to approach it.

It's crazy how so many video games get lost to time that why i am so gald this game is back and can be played by all. This game may not be the best but it is an experiance that no other game can replicate.

Man, this is one of my all-time faves. Nostalgia aside, this game offers SO much. Yes, it's janky. Yes, there were bugs on the console that drove me insane. But the sheer roleplay and immersion really brought it home. This is a MASSIVE win for games preservation. Hands down, blows all the recent AAAA games out of the water by MILES.

One of Obsidian Entertainment's more obscure titles, Alpha Protocol was slatmmed on release for jankiness, but garnered a cult following for its plot, writing and innovative choice system only to then become abandonware due to copyrighted music. And now this year, GOG has preserved it with a brand new and improved version. And it's worth the preservation IMO. The game is very influenced by Mass Effect, being an action Role Playing title with Third Person Shooter combat and a choice system, but Alpha Protocol adds to the choice system concept by making it so that there are no "good" or "bad" choices: just results. Every choice you make has both benefits and downsides, and can influence the plot in many different ways. And THIS is why Alpha Protocol is a cult game: The amount of choices you're given is unparalleled, and when coupled with a damn fine plot and script by Obsidian regular Chris Avellone, it makes for one of the best RPGs of the seventh generation. Really, I think the reason critics lambasted it (and why I'm giving it a very high four stars) was because of the janky combat and flawed AI, but the former can easily be remedied with a mod that fixes the aiming reticules. If you're looking for a unique Role-Playing experience, or are all for games preservation (which you should be), or both, Alpha Protocol is a must-own.

Curently playing my third game in a row. What a game ! It perfectlyencapsulates what Jason Bournesque's adventures should be. Give it a try... hey, it's g.o.g., this game is the reason you are here.
