    So, which system will you guys who're buying AP get it for?

    I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to buy Alpha Protocol for PC or the 360. I kind of don't really care for achievements... or do I? Haven't decided. I'm pretty confident my PC will be up to snuff to run AP if it's the same engine as Mass Effect. But, ugh, if there's any sort of invasive DRM / activation limit / have-to-be-always-connected-to-play activation then I'll just pay the extra $10 and get it for the 360.

    For the 360. Reminds me of Mass Effect which was really fun. :)

    Most likely the 360.  My comp won't be able to handle it.

    I'll get it for the 360, since it seems pretty streamlined for that sort of experience and my computer sounds like it's trying to fly to the sun when it's stressed the slightest bit.

    I think this is my most anticipated game right now.

    360. One of the things I adore about console gaming is I don't have to worry about if any particular game will actually run on it. Now, I just have to worry if the console itself will run. *RIMSHOT!*

    I'll probably pick it up for the PC. Can't believe I'm saying this but... I hope it's for Games for Windows Live, then I can still get achievements. I just bought a brand new high-end PC (Fragbox 2), so I'm good to go for the next while on new PC games.

    If there's no demo Ima download it to the PC to see if I like the shooting and if it's more than a 3rd person shooter because that's all I get from the gameplay videos, other than that CG trailer but that's CG anyway to sell a game, right?
    But following if I like it I'll get it for 360, I love the concept but the shooting is holding me back.

    Sounds more Deus Ex than Mass Effect.
    And the fact that Chris Avellone is behind it rather than Drew Karpshyn is a very good thing.

    Anyway, PC.
