Lulz. That was an abomination.

morganfell5477d ago

To fix the major issues the patch will have to be about the size of a retail game.

Well...actually...it will have to be a completely new retail game.

FanboysWillHateMe5477d ago

As soon as I finished the first mission, I returned it.The combat was plain awful. Took 4-5 bullets to kills someone, and it's one of those games where the "super agent" has to rest for a few seconds before each shot because apparently these silenced pistols have the recoil of a deagle.

I applaud whoever enjoyed this game.

branchedout5477d ago

I've actually enjoyed the game. And now they're going to fix up the small little problems it had?

That's pretty awesome. but I do fear that it's a bit too late, as the gaming community read 3 reviews and followed them blindly. Anyone who's actually picked it up and played it with an open mind has found themselves enjoying it.

Christopher5477d ago

There were a crap-load of issues with the game, but it was still enjoyable. Especially once you got up in levels in some of the skills. Honestly, nothing more bad-ass than either going all stealth with ridiculous pistol skills or going all tactical with ridiculous assault rifle skills and grenades up the wazoo.

skip2mylou5477d ago

i agree the game is enjoyable if people actually tried it out

Spenok5476d ago

I havent had a chance to play it yet, but its something i wouldnt mind playing. Obsidian usually has a pretty good track record.

thisguywithhair5477d ago

Beat the game twice myself. Sent it back and now they want to patch it. I have the worst timing somethimes lol.

ArchangelMike5476d ago

I was one of those had had all the will to get Alpha protocol, and then read the poor reviews. Nah... gonna get Red Dead now instead!

Hopefully most of what the game needs is in that new patch, and no dlc is needed to make it better.

BeaArthur5477d ago

It's already $40 at Gamestop new. I don't think there is a patch out there that can turn a piece of crap into a good game.

Darkfocus5477d ago

that's really it's only problem other than the graphics not being that great but I can look past that.

BeaArthur5477d ago (Edited 5477d ago )

Yeah but I've seen someone play it and the hit detection is horrid. I don't think you can get that right by patching it.

Don't forget they've put a lot of these on gamepass and ps plus so you can add that money to it. Good to see Sega going strong

shinXseijuro12h ago

Happy for sega ! I was expecting some kind of showing of their newer games at game fest but maybe they’re keeling it for TGS? Crazy taxi and jet set needs a trailer or something soon !!!

Atlus coming in strong for Sega thankfully

CrimsonWing6940d ago

What about the Yakuza series and Sonic?

_Decadent_Descent39d ago

I like what's on their legacy IP list, but there are still many more franchises they could revive. Shining Force and Chakan come to mind.

The Dreamcast was the biggest gamble and way ahead of its time.

OtterX41d ago

I wish we lived in the Alternate Timeline where Sega was still a dominant force in the console space and it hadn't been Microsoft.

Deeeeznuuuts40d ago

I've always said this, would much prefer SEGA, such a shame.

blacktiger40d ago

this was all part of the plan to give Microsoft the spot

chicken_in_the_corn40d ago

Would be interesting to see what they would do for a modern console.

Saturn was a fantastic piece of kit... they just went a little too ambitious with its dual CPU setup. which turned a lot of developers off (at the time). The homebrew community have done some amazing work many years later, thanks to multichip experience. It is still the best platform for arcade fighters and shmups of all time. Dreamcast is a close 2nd though.

Profchaos40d ago

Yeah it was a interesting decision especially when looking at how dual CPU is considered a root cause of why the Jaguar was a failure.

Also the hardware rendered four sided polygons where the standard was three if they kept with triangle polygons I feel the systems development would have been easier to work with and we would have seen more third party ports in the west.

I think it was a victim of its time more than anything it saw huge success in Japan but the leadership and internal turmoil in the west meant games were not getting localised along with a focus on arcade like games were the PlayStation and later the N64 were pushing more in depth experiences over coin munching high score driven games.

Knightofelemia41d ago

I still enjoy my Saturn it was the first console I mowed lawns for and saved up for to purchase. I went so far as to purchase a used Saturn to run off an SD card. I even have a second Dreamcast modded to run off an SD card as well.
