Oftentimes, the results are quite shallow, merely changing your character's appearance slightly or giving you a different ending. But what if there was a game where basically every decision you made had a major impact on nearly every aspect of the experience? How would players feel about a game where they honestly never have the same experience twice? Well that question might not be rhetorical for much longer, as Alpha Protocol is setting out to rewrite all the rules, and the results have the potential to be downright overwhelming.
Our demo took us through a Moscow train station on the hunt for a weapons shipment. Our standing orders were to find the gun cache and destroy it, but depending on when you've arrived at the depot in your playthrough (mission structure isn't linear, you always have the choice to go to a bunch of different places) you may also have the option to reroute the weapons to an arms dealer for a tidy profit and a discount on future purchases. Of course, disobeying your handlers will piss off the folks back at HQ, and since they're the ones ultimately footing the bill for your escapades it's dangerous to get on their bad side..."
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!
This is Bob Dole's GOTY mutha-phucka'z!!!!!
