x360a: Alpha Protocol Preview

x360a writes: "With the popularity of modern day espionage films like the James Bond franchise, The Bourne trilogy and of course who can forget TV's compelling 24, it really is a surprise that the espionage genre in video games is relatively untouched. Usually, when a popular genre booms in the traditional mainstream media, we see games crop up all over the shop looking to mimic its success. That's not the case here though and that is obviously one of Alpha Protocol's initial hooks – the fact that it's fresh – but you can't measure success on the strength of a fresh idea, right? Thankfully Obsidian and SEGA's upcoming espionage RPG is more than just that, and they're looking to bring a rich, detailed RPG to the table with a few innovations of its own".

look so terrible on xbox make me want to puke

am i playing a nes game?

Thank goodness for ps3 version

Peter North6075d ago

Thank God the Ps3 version supports uncompressed graphics.

Tony P6075d ago

So basically Fallout-style gameplay:

Guns. Special attacks aka V.A.T.S. Perks. Not too surprising coming from the devs who originally helped make the Fallout series. But hopefully with better, scenario affecting choices than F3. I think I'll get this.

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.

TheNamelessOne658d 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.

ZeekQuattro658d 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.

TheColbertinator658d ago

Had some issues but that game was brilliant.

Cacabunga784d ago

LordoftheCritics784d ago

Spec Ops: The Line was super dark.

Incredible story.

SheenuTheLegend784d 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-Long784d ago

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

melons784d ago

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

Skuletor784d 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.

ravens52784d ago

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

monkey602784d 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.

Skuletor784d ago

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

Terry_B784d ago (Edited 784d 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.
