I really enjoyed Alpha Protocol even though it had an unfavourable reception for being buggy and unpolished. I didn't play it at release so they might have ironed out a few of the bugs by then but I enjoyed the whole secret agent theme and the fact that your decisions had significant consequences, impacting who would be your ally and who would be your enemies. I even remember feeling a bit remorseful for making a selfish decision on one of the missions.
The gameplay could be frustrating, especially if taking the stealth approach. And the game made the same mistake with the bosses as Deus Ex Human Revolution, BEFORE DR:HR did. Despite this, the story line had some interesting twists and a few interesting characters and the gameplay had some good moments. Overall I enjoyed the 20+ hours I sunk into it.
