Digital Spy: "As we look forward to the release of the Xbox One and PS4 later this year, each week Digital Spy will look back at some of our favorite Xbox 360 and PS3 games of this generation. This week, Ben Lee checks out Alpha Protocol."
Alpha Protocol has sneaked its way back onto Steam as part of its Summer Sale, much to the surprise of a few loyal fans.
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.
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.
Still have a physical copy for my PS3. Clunky at times but I had a lot of fun with it back in the day.
Cultured Vultures: In the spirit of preserving some kind of history of this industry, we’ve decided to list some of the best games that you just simply can’t get hold of digitally at the minute.
I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.
Yes great game spec ops! Since the time we’ve been asking sony to make one:/
Auto Modelista.. a PS2 capcom racer!! A blast to play and great graphics!
Maximo!
Rival Schools!
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.
Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.
yes! incredible rain effects; so good to drive along in rain with your Spotify playlist blaring
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.
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.
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.
Many overlooked RPGs lie dormant in the catalogues of gaming, but players can pick up their swords and shields with these amazing JRPG hidden gems!
I was so hyped for Alpha Protocol until played it
I played like the first 30 minutes of it once, the most boring 30 minutes i honestly ever spent on ps3, even Kane & Lynch 2 was more fun lol
I just bought it the other day to give it another chance. I think I just gave up on it the first time because I think Splinter Cell Conviction just came out and I was into that.
And yeah, you can't beat $5. Watch it be one of the "free" games for XBL on Demand. HAHAHAHAHA!
I somehow enjoyed Alpha Protocol; which, even to this day surprises me considering the gameplay mechanics were outdated at the time of the release (even more so today), the story was decent at best, the multiple endings weren't really worth it (by which I mean they weren't good enough to warrant restarting the game multiple times) and the fact that the graphics, once again, at the time of the release, were subpar.
Like I said, I still enjoyed it, but this game had so much potential, it could have been so much more. But in the end, the retail product was a poor man's splinter cell with some light RPG elements added.
Despite all the bugs and issues I still like the game, too bad it wasn't more polished.
