Alpha Protocol

Alpha Protocol recently came out. I like guns and I like RPGs. So this game seems to be perfect for me. Wrong. I may like guns and RPGs but I don't like dated graphics and horrible gameplay. This game puts you in the shoes of the newest Alpha Protocol agent, Michael Thornton. The story and plot in this game are quite amazing but have been brought down by the poor cover system and glitchy gameplay. I get tired of trying to take cover behind a bench and I end up taking cover in front of the bench. This game plays out like a regular RPG. There's mission and things you can do on the side. But it's all very forgetable. I don't remember half the things that I did and I didn't really care about the plot that much. That's a bad step for an RPG. I played this on my PS3 and I was amazed at how bad the graphics were. If this supported Playstation Move it could pass for a Wii game based on the graphics. The VO I found was pretty solid but there are never any memorable lines like in games with terrific VO. (Which is every game that Nolan North is in) In the end a good story with good sound can't pick up the sloppy gameplay and aged graphics. I'm giving this a 6.5/10
