Alpha Protocol Flops! 6.0 @ GS

Link. Called it 8)

Hmm looks like gs pulled the review description. Said it was filled with bugs and low production values.

It isn't reviewed yet. :?

brickdoctor

they are now. just wasn't updated all at once.

Page has been edited. It's still N/A.

They unblocked the thread lol

um I think it is reviewed but they released it out to earlier.

That is what it said before the craziness begin. Might be another Prince of persia moment, might be a gamespot mistake. We will see.

Guys, type in "Alpha Protocol" in the search engine at the top. It gives a 6.0 score to the PS3 and PC versions.

I'll still rent it, I've been craving to play a bad RPG.

That's odd. I hate it when it does that. 6.0 for 3 refreshes then NA. But this happened with Modnation. It was a point lower so hmmm...

CaseyWegner

the score is up for the 360 version.

NUUUUUUUUUU

I was actually looking forward to this game..:(.. Oh well a rent I guess but I will still hold my judgement until it's ... Clearly a 6.0 lol.

But at this moment, Blur wins the race... See what I did thar? Har har!:P

1.) To play something that I wouldn't normally

2.) To learn more about what I like/dislike in video games

3.) To learn more about some video game mechanics

4.) To think about how the game could have been good

5.) To insult it

okey dokey

Well I wish I could actually read the review. Im pretty sure I will disagree with it when I get the game next week. Iv done it plenty of times with gs.

This happend with Modnation racers, it got a 8 instead of the 7 the glitchy page was showing.

Was the game even hyped?

Hope this glitch lasts into Reach, GT5 etc. It would scare the hell out of people..

It's a glitch, it shows N/A at times. Until it goes away, it's not technically scored yet.

Maybe they hit the wrong key when they went to put in the score, i.e. 6 instead of 5 or 7.

[QUOTE="skinny_man_69"][QUOTE="toast_burner"]It could but im just going to wait and see. A score is useless if you cant read the reviewtoast_burner

Well they could release patches...

damn, Obsidian is struggling right now.

I hope they clean up their act for New Vegas.

Looks alright, wasn't really hyped so I wouldn't call it a flop.

And SEGA wanted to make a AAA game out of this, right? Looks like they failed there.

See, THIS is why I don't trust Obsidian with Fallout NV. They ALWAYS screw up something critical in one way or another in their games. I HOPE that they clean up their act before Fallout NV releases.

Hohoho, silly Sega.

LOL. Agreed.

the game is being worked on by the same people who made the original fallout games.

I'm thinking the score is probably right, which sucks, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I seriously doubt it's worse than Splinter Cell Conviction, one of the most shallow games I've played this year. The funny thing is AP already got 3 AA scores. If the problem is only low production values and the lack of hype, than I'll buy it. ;)

emorainbo

I wouldn't automatically outright dismiss this game just because of a low score. There's always the possibility it's a great game, and the reviewer just wasn't aware of what the game was really about (like the Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn situation). But then again, maybe it is bad.

I can't even read the review, every time I click on it, it just refreshes the page. :?
