Alpha Protocol

chocobodude3's Alpha Protocol (Xbox 360) review

An underrated gem

Alpha Protocol was a long delayed game, and when it came out it was bashed by many reviews for bad shooting and dumb ai, plus glitches. After playing it though i feel the game does not deserve the hate it gets. People compare Alpha Protocol to Mass Effect, while part of that is true, the most distinct comparison i can make is Deus Ex, because of the many was you can approach the game, such as stealth, shooting, and talking. I can forgive the shooting because this not a 3rd person shooter it is a rpg. And while Mass Effect 2 is an awesome game it felt more like a shooter than an rpg. Also this game handles choice better than most game do  as you will see the ramifications of your actions.  I recommend you should take a look at it it is a good game in its own right.

Ignore the reviews, any fan of RPG's MUST play this game. If you can look past the texture pop-in, stiff animations, and various bugs, there is a hidden gem to be played.  Let's start with the positives, the dialogue system is one of the best in gaming. Dialogue choices actually effect the overall story and how certain characters view you. It doesn't have empty choices that lead nowhere (Mass Effect, etc.). It also has a great cast of characters and an intriguing storyline. The RPG elements in t...
