    Default Alpha Protocol

    Anybody been waiting for this one, bit surprised it hasn't been mentioned much here as there are a lot of RPG players and a spy RPG sounds pretty awesome. I'm guessing a lot would be put off by it's being made by Obsidian, personally I found NWN2 and KoTOR2 more enjoyable than the originals, I can put up with a buggy game if it has a good story to it. It's pre-loading on Steam as I type, going to bed soon so hopefully it'll be released when I get up and I can play a few hours before work.

    Superb, the game won't launch. Obsidian have done it again, seems a few people have problems with Windows 7 systems.

    edit: Got it running after changing to XP compatability mode.

    Obsidion have a bad track record for the last few years. NWN2 was OK, but it was still "gamey" while KOTOR2 was horrid and ruined the original's plot.

    Overall, they have yet to produce anything of the artistic integrity of BIOWARE.

    So I'm not especially interested.
