Explicit Gamer: Alpha Protocol Preview

Explicit Gamer: The idea of a real-world spy RPG with Mass Effect as a template and Obsidian (Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Fallout: New Vegas) at the helm with the freedom to be whatever type of spy you want – Daniel Craig, Sean Connery, Roger Moore, whatever – sent me into a whirlwind of excitement immediately. Playing Shepherd as either Paragon or Renegade never appealed to me (I'd pick one and stick with it), but the idea of choosing between smooth-talking your opponent, using some gadget to blow up something, sneaking past them altogether or just kicking the crap out of them suggests that I'm going to be replaying Alpha Protocol a lot.

One of the few 7th gen game that I'll full heartedly support for a remake.
Its a very unique RPG and deserves its faults fixed the 2nd time.

TheNamelessOne352d ago

I would be so for this. Alpha Protocol is the definition of a diamond in the rough. Before being acquired by Microsoft, Obsidian presented their ideas for a sequel, multiple times, but were always shot down. Even something simple like a remaster is very unlikely.

ZeekQuattro352d ago

Still have a physical copy for my PS3. Clunky at times but I had a lot of fun with it back in the day.

TheColbertinator352d ago

Had some issues but that game was brilliant.

LordoftheCritics478d ago

Spec Ops: The Line was super dark.

Incredible story.

SheenuTheLegend478d ago

all the games in the above list are bang on. this is the only reason we need backwards compatibility and physical presense of games for the upcoming future, no matter what.

Yi-Long479d ago

Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.

melons479d ago

yes! incredible rain effects; so good to drive along in rain with your Spotify playlist blaring

Skuletor479d ago

I really wanted a MotorStorm using the same engine, Driveclub is easily one of the best looking games on PS4 and I'm surprised they didn't even give it a PS4 Pro patch.

ravens52478d ago

Yes indeed. May just install it on my PS5. You know, physical copy and all.

monkey602478d ago

I adored Driveclub and the Bike expansion. I also loved Motorstorm. Evolution shutting down was a crime

Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.

Skuletor479d ago

I have quite a few of these. Timed licenses suck.

Terry_B478d ago (Edited 478d ago )

wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.

Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
