        I enjoyed it when i got it for $30 and beat it twice, once with keyboard/mouse 2nd time i used 360 pad, both were great I felt like i got my moneys worth and now it's $2 lol i don't care what your reason for not getting it before now but this is rediculous value. I felt like it was mass effect dialogue style+bond+splinter cell. I had some complaints but I still think I'll replay it a 3rd time sometime.

        I bought it at release and enjoyed it, but it did have bugs it was not a perfect game by any means. It was a good game though.

        Yeah don't pass it up, although not perfect it is still a very playable and very enjoyable game and you cant beat the $2 deal.

        Have you ever wanted a game you could play 5 times and have the story play out significantly differently AT EVERY TURN each time?


        Then buy Alpha Protocol.


        Also, spec pistols and stealth, you'll be a walking god by mid-game. Which is only like 5-6 hours of play, at most, hence the replayability.
