"Everyone who likes the game is a fanboy." Mods, please? Trolling doesn't get much more blatant than this. "mods please?" are you serious??? LOL! Well according to you all, everyone who says another game is better is also a fanboy, so whatdaya have to say about that? don't worry I'll wait... List reasons. Listen to reasons. Also, if you like a game more than another is entirely subjective and not a problem. However, if you BASH another Game for NO GOOD REASON...... That is entirly another story. Especially if you are ignoring flaws of other games you like when you do it. Never once ignored a flaw of ME1 or 2. I fully acknowledge the few there. ME1 - barren planets and framerate issues, which was the number one problem with the game. The story, characters and just about everything else rocked. Read reviews and you'll see those sentiments seconded. ME2 - slow paced story and mini games. On a personal level, they left out some very key character progression. Outside of that, both games were perfect. Looking at Alpha Protocol, the main problems acknowledged by everyone (including a friggin insider developer ) framerate, bugs, bugs, and more bugs (simply climbing a ladder breeds frustration), no polish, lack of explorable world, limited characters. No vehicles, squadmates, side quest, and its a short story for an RPG. Truthfully I can keep going. The sad thing is that I found most of these flaws just in the first mission. The atmosphere in Mass Effect blows Alpha protocol out of the water. Alpha Protocol has a wonderful dialog system though, which is the only thing I give it over ME1 & 2, outside of that, it is simply not on the same level to even be compared. Top Tier Western RPGs (latest decade): My Opinion Mass Effect 1 & 2 Fallout franchise Dragon Age Oblivion Second Tier: Alpha Protocol Fable I & II others It doesn't mean its not a good game, but the overall picture which include technical problems as well as overall enjoyment of the games, I'd have to say this list sums it up for me.

The funny thing is that you can prove the fanboyism here by simply going outside of this forum to other game sites and look at what they have to say and you'd laugh at the isolated nature of the fanboys in this thread.

I read this and all I have to say is that all you have to do is read this and you can tell that there is a problem with it. It is amazing the lengths people will go to support and boost their favorite game just to give it some credibility. "As a story narrated by a smoking man" - I had to laugh hard at this one. "Mass Effect 2 moves you through sparsely populated boxes asking you to believe they're vast cities or sprawling space stations. It is absolutely not up to the task of what it intends to show you. But Alpha Protocol is under no such delusion. Its hubs are simply safe houses, and its levels are simply its missions. And although many of the missions are chintzy, there is no failed attempts at world building, because there is no attempt at world building. Alpha Protocol knows its limitations." Great attempt to hide the huge flaw that Ap doesn't even have a world to ME great worlds. Calling it "boxes", again laughable. there is a very biased writer on display here, lol. Tom Chick is a chick, LOL!!!

double post.

me too, hehe. That is such a fanboy statement, whenever someone says something that is against what they believe, it becomes a automatic response - TROLL!!! Trolls love to call other people trolls Fanboys love to conTROLL everything don't they? Since I'm one of the few people to criticize AP on this forums, calling me a fanboy is a joke. The fact you think ME is better does not make you a troll. This does: Well I personally like ME better, does that make me a troll??? I think not. I never said I hated AP, in fact I like it. I call this a serious case of fanboyism because when a person is so tight to the point of not being able to accept other people's opinion, they are butthurt over something and it is plain to see that the poor reviews this game has recieved is making more than a few people in need a butt pillow...with a lot of cusion., lol Have you ever thought about the way you put it? Honestly it came across as condescending and smug. Not exactly the way I'd like to present myself on a new forum. Well I wasn't trying to be perfect in my writing, but for what it is worth I did not mean to come across like that. I again really like AP, which is why I bought it and I am currently playing it. I haven't beat it so there is still more for me to see.

Look I have nothing against you, but if you take a step back and look at this thread and just read with an objective eye, you will start laughing, trust me.

A conspiracy??? You have got to be kidding me. From the outside looking in, you people claiming conspiracy are having a severe case of fanboyitis. It is incredibly laughable to think company's care enough to derail a game company just for the heck of it. anything to make you feel better I guess, well I sure hope it worked, lol.

Uh-huh uh-huh. Unlike you I "at least" managed to list reasons, but feel free to ignore them, you're opinion-that's-fact is clearly superior to anyone's. I never said that, but it seems we both are suffering from the same issue so it's like throwing stones that have your own name on it. Either way AP is fun, I like it, but obviously ME is on a whole different level.

ME 1 may be better on the technical side, but the AI is nonexistent (enemies running around between two points - except the geth snipers and Final Saren, who jump around between four points!, totally random ability usage), Mako controls are a sin against humanity, combat utterly imbalanced, cover unneeded (and useless anyway) after the first two missions, exploration...palette swapped planets, side missions taking place in all of two kinds of warehouses, some (and IMO the best) exposition delivered in text only in a pop-up at the mission's end, bugs which I thankfully did not encounter.. Ignoring the crapload of faults ME 1 had, and you call others epic fanboys? Pfft. Everything you said had no explanation, just your blind opinion. good job with that argument /sarcasm Wow, I state an opinion as a simple matter of fact that is pretty plain to see by the main stream and the non-mainstream. I like AP okay!!! My point is still true and I am no fanboy, fantasy or not, sci-fi or not, Mass Effect 1 and 2 are better in almost every category. Ap suffers from a lot of negatives. Massively buggy, no open world to play with. unless I'm mistaken, no vehicles. Also no squadmates, yes relationships but no squaddies, unless I'm mistaken again. This game suffers hugely, yet it is fun and has a very good story.

As much as I Am enjoying AP, it cannot hold a candle to Either Mass Effect 1 or 2. It's just the plain truth. Anyone saying otherwise is a pure fanboy of epic proportions.
