Alpha Protocol is now available for pre-order on Steam, and if you pre-order it, it'll come with a free copy of Space Siege that you can play right away!

Oooooooooooooooo!

 

What's Space Siege? >.>

 

 

EDIT: Ignoring the fact I can find out on my own really easily ...

Space Siege is kind of a spiritual successor to Dungeon Siege, made by Gas Powered Games. You play only one character, but you have a robot helper who can be upgraded. I played it through to the end earlier this year and had a good time with it.

I see it has coop

 

That might entice me!

 

 

 

If you can say, how do preorder perks get determined?

Cool but, I noticed it said "Alpha Protocol is set to release in October, 2009." No specific date given like before. Does that mean the delay to late october is true? Please confirm soon..

Bundling this with Space Siege may have been this game's biggest blunder so far!

It's also available for pre-order on amazon. The release date there is set for October 6th. That's where I pre-ordered it . No Space Siege unfortunately :thumbsup: but i'll have the disc. A 12 gb or so download is a bit steep for me.

I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God.

So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me?

Nothing personal. It's just revenge.

Had the system requirements been released already? AP's Steam page has them.

Seriously. Is this a pre-order bonus or punishment? Did Obsidian have any say in that. Why would you want your name associated with Space Siege. It'd make sense if the two games were at all similar but this... I'm GLAD I'm not buying it on Steam.

Windows 7 isn't supported. Shouldn't it be supported?

 

No, Windows 7 has not been released yet. Support teams generally don't support beta versions and the like.

Wow, people hate Space Siege so much I'm kind of curious now.

What is my dad doing in this game? The resemblance is uncanny.

I laughed at the "Rome-ance" perk that gives Michael a +5 Endurance :ermm:

 

I like the two first pics, menu of the perks and customization of armor. Apparently, we can get a discount on almost anything with Grigori : we knew about the armor one when being nice, the weapon one when being violent, now we know the gadget one when being professional.

 

And I quite like the appearance we can give to Michael in the second pic. Feels natural, especially the hair.

Don't all spies have secret identities :) ? Or maybe I'm confusing with super-heroes...

I won't say that great minds think alike, because mine isn't that great. But fans do think alike. Especially when they're eager for any news about the most RPG part of the game :ermm:

 

I prefer to think that :

 

--- a perk named like that with that kind of effect is funny to anyone

--- everyone is happy to learn more about things that we knew, but we're never actually shown

--- Grigori has received a lot of focus recently, anything more about him is noticeable. Wonder what happens when we threaten him? He laughs in our face?

Now now, just because I find the joke funny/ the info is new doesn't mean I feel a compulsion to write it down. Especially exactly those 3 things. :p

Some of those screens are pretty sweet.

 

I like the way Mike looks. It's really starting to become apparent that head and face customization is really powerful. It's always the same basic structure, but the different choices make for really different Mikes. Much better than customized Pete Postlethwaite.

 

 

 

P.S.: I spelled "Postlethwaite" correctly without checking. Because I'm awesome.

I wonder if those system requirements are real, if so, this are some low ones. This game supports single core processors and NVIDIA

You could have packed in Bloodlines, such a missed opportunity :shifty:

 

Nice to see AP on Steam, though.

I'm guessing that Space Seige was picked because it was also published by Sega.

Sega is like a ball and chain on Obsidian's leg.
