mkreku Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 So.. time for the most burning questions of the CENTURY! Which of Obsidian Entertainment's current projects seems the most interesting to you? Which one gets your juices flowing the most? If you had to choose just one game to play from these two potential masterpieces, which would it be? If you were to be stranded alone on a distant island (with a powerful computer, food and electricity to last you a game's lifetime.. and no access to pr0n), which of these two titles would you bring? If you were abducted by aliens.. nevermind. Just choose. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Right now I'm going for Aliens. It's easier to have confidence in what I know nothing about, in this case. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveThaiBinh Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Knowing so little about either game, it's hard to vote. Thinking just of the concept, a modern-day setting is great and more interesting than either sci-fi or fantasy, but I'm sure the Aliens RPG will be good, too.

Deadly_Nightshade Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I've got to go with the Aliens RPG. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorth Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I am leaning towards Aliens at the moment, but that is based entirely on setting. I have no clue who Bauer or Bourne are and never got into the Frederick Forsyth stuff either “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Probably AP, based solely on greater familiarity with the source material/inspiration. (I liked Alien well enough, but I've never gotten around to seeing more than bits and pieces of any of the sequels.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigranes Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Purely in terms of setting, AP, as I'm not a big fan of the Alien franchise.

Deraldin Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I've gotta go with AP. Aliens are great and all, but the spies are calling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I kinda see Aliens as being more action-y, and AP being more adventure-y. So I voted AP. But hey, hopefully both will rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure79 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I'm much more excited about Alpha Protocol. Just because its a RPG not set in a fantasy/scifi universe. Plus spy action seems awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@\NightandtheShape/@ Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 They both seem like they're going to be awesome, I'm totally impartial, I can't decide. "I'm a programmer at a games company... REET GOOD!" - Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Di Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I honestly don't know. I'm pretty disappointed at Alpha's apparent preset male character. However, I don't know enough about either of them to make a decision. It could very well be that neither game will be my cuppa, although I have purchased and loved what Obsidian has so far given us. I purchased NWN2 the day it was released. I doubt I'll do so for either of the upcoming projects, unless I know a great deal more than I know so far. They both sound a bit iffy to me at this point.

sharkz Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 On one hand, Alpha Protocol looks awesome and it's an RPG not set in a fantasy or sifi setting so thats a big plus but on the other hand I really love the Alien series... I think at the mo, I'm going to hold off the vote until I know more about both. It will be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pidesco Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Alpha Protocol. A real world RPG is something I've been wanting for a long time.

Musopticon? Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Bug hunt. Seconded. Smart guns, low-tech scifi, Gigerian vistas and claustrophobic dungeoneering are selling points for me. I'll get Alpha Protocol on the release day as well. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai.

mkreku Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Maybe I should chime in to my own thread.. I'm pretty stoked about both (naturally), but I've been getting these Deus Ex flashbacks the last couple of days just thinking about Alpha Protocol and what it could become, so much so that it's sailed right up to the top part of my list of games I'm looking forward to. I'm probably going to be hugely disappointed, but that's life. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humodour Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Wow. I figured this poll would be a no-brainer in favour of Alpha Protocol. Not by a long shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
