i'll add roza and smhs...do we all have mics?
Just picked up Alpha Protocol...
Wow, I'm completely taken aback. I bought it thinking 'I'll just play for the dialogue and story-line' and this has to be (for me) one of my favourite of this year so far. The combat was constantly complained about, and I just can't see where the criticism is coming from (its based on dice-rolls, yes, but its exactly the same as any other shooter, and once specialized in weapons, its just awesome). The characters are top-notch too, and the story is really interesting thus far. Seriously, I was expecting nothing from this, and it really is great. Sure, its not as good as BioWare's work, but hell is it bordering on close.
I'd suggest specilizing in stealth and pistols (which is what I'm doing). The way you can approach missions however you want reminds me of Deus Ex, and thats and extremely good thing!
There are downfalls, but these can be easily overlooked (the graphics, some annoying bugs).
Anyone who enjoyed the Mass Effect series, buy this game!!
