Another hurried game leads to flaws.

User Rating: 7.5 | Alpha Protocol PS3
I don't know what are people standard and tolerance level for a game that is market for 60 bucks. But certainly they can make this a lot better if they spent more time on refining some aspect of the game.

The flaws are everywhere and they are really noticeable from the beginning of the game. Voice acting is inconsistent, sometime your main character is really professional and sometime he sounds like he is reading off a script.

Animation is really stiff and the connection between each animation is obviously not smooth. Clashing meshes like the arms and the torso is unforgiven since the character is wearing t shirt and thin body armor. I know Dragon Age have clipping too but they all wear XL armor.

The game is very good for the first half until you find yourself doing the same puzzle and shooting and running most of the time, It gets boring.

Dialogue option is very limited compare to bioware's dragon age and mass effect. Most of the time the right option is the standard and you just go along with the default. The timer also gives some tension to how you react first thing it comes to your mind and I found that pretty cool.

The stealth system is random, with stealth armor and stealth skills upgraded, most of the time I found myself hidden as I expected. However, sometimes it is broken that the enemy will hear you anyway you approach him, and obviously they are just normal grunts.

The game itself is really enteraining if you can look pass the flaws I mention above, I enjoy the game very much but the game could be a 9+ if they can spend some more time on it.
