Amazing game, underrated :)

Alpha Protocol is one of the most underrated games of all time. The gameplay, the choices, etc.. are all so well done, this game is fun as heck and very underrated! Thank you for bringing it back GOG and Obsidian! I would love a Alpha Protocol 2 one day, as this game is so much fun and offers so much replability. When it first came out I thought I would like the Mass effect series more, but to my surprise I ended up liking this game way more, despite some jank. If you have never played this game and you like choices in your rpgs PICK THIS UP ASAP!!! Obsidian are my favorite dev team of all time and this is one of there most underrated games and up there with KOTOR2, Pillars of Eternity 2 and Fallout New Vegas as my favorite games they have made over the years. Big thank you again for reviving this wonderful, underrated gem of a game!

An underrated gem

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.

The Best Jank Returns!

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.

A flawed RPG gem worth preserving.

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.
