[b]Underrated: Alpha Protocol[/b] 

Obsidian is an under-appreciated studio. Not only did they make sequels that were better than the games they followed (KOTOR 2, Neverwinter Nights 2, Fallout New Vegas) they also are making decent CRPGs in an era where western RPG means 'BioWare or Skyrim'. Alpha Protocol was a little game that squeaked out in the era of moral choice and it was almost dismissed on launch because though it presented itself like a third person shooter it was truly an RPG at heart. It's an espionage RPG where you play as a secret agent and your skill selection influences the way the mission unfolds which is standard stuff for any decent RPG; Alpha Protocol's other quirk was its choice mechanic. Unlike in other games popular at the time, you know the ones, Alpha Protocol actually made choice matter because things weren't a simple red and blue good and bad response plus you were on a time limit with each and every response long before TellTale made that their only gameplay element. Your choices were important and changed the progression of the plot down to different final bosses and endings and even mission scenarios. The femme fatale you meet on a plane could be an ally or not, the mute assassin could try to kill you or help you out down the line or several other scenarios. It wasn't perfect, in true Obsidian fashion there were bugs and the RPG mechanics were easily broken making for a horribly imbalanced game but the writing and strength of the choice system makes this a game worth playing even today.

I think I recall seeing [b][i]"[/i][/b]Alpha Protocol[b][i]"[/i][/b] on the front of an Xbox 360 game I own that is gathering dust in the corner of my room, among many others. I might just find up my Xbox and play it, if it's as good as you say it is. I know I enjoyed [i]Fallout: New Vegas[/i] quite a bit, though not as much as I enjoy [i]Fallout 3[/i], since it took me 50% less time to give in and enable godmode when playing the former. I think that's a habit I have with Bethesda games, honestly.
