    When it's that cheap you should buy it twice. Who knows when another incredible offer like this presents itself in a Silellak post?

    Of course I already know The Codex loves Alpha Protocol this much!

    Worth buying if it is on sale. There's lots of good stuff in that game.

    I've avoided it in the past given the flaws but at $2 they're basically giving it away.

    I would buy it 10 times if Steam would let me. Maybe I should gift it to someone. :roll:

    If you haven't played it yet and don't buy it for 2 dollars you are officially retarded.

    I actually bought it again even though I have a physical copy. £1.50 is a good price to pay for a digital backup of a game I quite enjoyed.

    It is 2 euro BUY IT.

    The game is flawed as hell, but is worth it for 2 DOLLARS.

    A game would have to come over to my house and kick me in the balls for it to not be worth $2.

    "Processor: 2.4+ GHZ Intel® or 2.0+ GHZ AMD™ "


    There isn't a "dual core" missing there right? My 3.06 GHZ Pentium 4 machine (Old, building something new next year) will run it right? (note: I have upgraded my graphics card and RAM so they will easily run it).


    Damn it Steam! I was so close to finishing Baten Kaitos Orgins!

    Are there any mods or fixes out there that make maneuvering the ingame menus(minigames mostly) not suck so fucking much?

    Fucking Christ, it's just about unplayable.

    Already have it for my xbox360 but bought it anyway. Truly a flawed gem.

    Yeah, does the Steam version fix all the problems Alpha Protocol has with Windows 7?

    Not sure what problems you're talking about, but I played the non-Steam version earlier this year on a computer running Windows 7 and only encountered two minor bugs. So either they fixed them or Windows 7 alone wasn't the source of them.

    (One was that enemies occasionally failed to appear when I loaded the game; reloading fixed this. And the other one involved the hotel level in Taiwan, although I don't remember the details.)

    A small warning the first part of the game is SHIT!.

    The whole Middle east part of the game is ANNOYING as fuck, but it gets more fun after that.

    Crashing or errors on start ups, usually. Didn't have those problems with Windows XP but after I upgraded to 7 I hit those issues. Didn't really care enough for replaying the game to bother looking for workarounds though.

    Hm. Still not sure if $2 is low enough after my last experience with the game.
