James Bond. Your move. :smuggo:

e: actually, now that I think about it, since he's obviously fronting hard in order to be taken seriously and not seen as just the senator's son (wasn't Bond also a benificiary of nepotism in the original books?), his insecurity arguably makes him a more interesting and moral character than Bond.

I can think of about six hundred fictional spies, off the top of my head, who are more moral than Bond, so I'm not sure that's much of a compliment.

ps. this. game.

It was a long while back. It might have even been in the earlier thread.

I'll put it in spoilers because it touches on a lot of plot stuff including things that not everyone would know after beating the game just once.


Crazy theory


For whatever it's worth, I love this theory. I declare it canon.

It looked like a shooter. It is not a good shooter.

This is so true. I really like Alpha Protocol but it fails pretty spectacularly as a straight up third person action shooter.

And keep playing, once you get out of Saudi Arabia it opens up and becomes the best game.

Pretty much this. Saudia Arabia is a bit of a slag but it's so worth it.

Why would you want to change Alpha Protocol?

It's basically perfect as it is, even though there are parts of it that are totally atrocious and broken. It's an artifact at this point, and I think it should be enjoyed in its full, and truthful, splendor.

haha my next sentence completely explains why you want to play those parts.

But anyways, it's cool! I just hope everyone gets to enjoy Alpha Protocol because it is bonkers awesome. It is the best choose your own adventure novel ever written.
