Alpha Protocol

Anyone here play Alpha Protocol?

I picked it up last week. It was always one of those games that looked interesting, but I never seemed to buy it. Well I am glad I did.

It is an espionage RPG as long as you define espionage as secret agent killing people and blowing up stuff.

While the missions are set, the game prides itself that there are many ways to accomplish the missions.

I like the way you can specialize skills. I always tend to lean toward sneaking and sniping so the stealth specialization was attractive.

The programmers claim that there are no bad decisions in the game but all decisions affect future game events significantly.

The re-playability seems nice. I am on my third time. As long as you try different ways and do the missions in different orders, the game replays nicely.

Anyone else checked out this game?
