Alpha Protocol manages sell 700k in spite of itself
Jul 31st
I like Alpha Protocol. I like it a lot. So far it’s one of my favorite games of the year in a year already full of superb RPGs and promising more to come.

Review: Alpha Protocol
May 28th
Your weapon is choice. That’s what Alpha Protocol proudly declares in this spy RPG with more than a shade of Mass Effect about it. Developed by the fine folk at Obsidian, Alpha Protocol has been a most promising prospect since it was first revealed, and the mixture of choice-laden RPG with secret agent shenanigans made More >
For every Alpha Protocol video, there’s a Joystiq post
May 26th
Being a spy means being versatile. Sometimes you have to scrap the plan and just wing it. Believe us, we know all about that.
This latest Alpha Protocol trailer embodies the importance of impromptu solutions to unexpected problems. It shows us that for every ambush, there’s an escape; for every system, there’s an override; and for More >
