There's a lot to choose from when it comes to Alpha Protocol but the final section of the game seemed a little barren for me. It's all linked to going back to the main Alpha Protocol facility in order to stop the nefarious business started by Halbech (the name similarity to Halliburton is quite transparent)... |

As I said last time, the honest and professional good-guy approach has proven unusually useful in this foggy world of espionage, where people's intentions are never what they appear to be. There are characters who respect men of honor and mine can testify to that. As it turns out, only one of the women of Alpha ... |

There's one point in Alpha Protocol where, for all the talk about choices and consequences that Obsidian has been linking with their latest release, most players will be trapped and incapable of resisting the temptation to play nice, make a character their friend and then use them as much as possible for the res... |

In many of the role-playing games of old, as players progressed through the story, they got stronger and stronger, until they arrived at a point where they would become overpowered and would easily overcome the challenges presented before them. It was true for Morrowind, it was true for Baldur's Gate and it is ... |

After getting out of the sun and wondering if I was ever going to actually get a good suit to walk around in (I'm even ready to forgo the crisp white shirt), Alpha Protocol allowed me to take on three locations. I chose Moscow, Russia mostly because it was the chilliest location when compared to sunny Rome and t... |

In an impossible situation, I'm about to betray my government to save its people. Left for dead in Saudi Arabia because I uncovered an evil corporation's plot that would threaten peace everywhere, I went rogue and put my life on the line to stop it. Fortunately, not many people know about my existence. Part... |

First off, I am saddened to report that the clothing options in Alpha Protocol do not include a high tech two-piece suit with matching reinforced kevlar shirt, the only way a true James Bond wannabe would head into battle. I hope that the developers at Obsidian or some intrepid PC modders think about this omission an... |

As my colleague previously mentioned, I shall be playing Alpha Protocol from a Jason Bourne-inspired perspective. This means that I will engage in a game that promised me I could play it as I wished, to accommodate choices and actions that would be the result of my asking the question: What would Jason Bourne do? Thi... |

Alpha Protocol is pretty much a proposition impossible to resist to a gamer like me. I love Obsidian and the work they have done on things like Knights of the Old Republic II and Neverwinter Nights II. They have a reputation for offering slightly buggy and overcomplicated experiences but their writing is always top n... |
