RPG Vault writes: "It's 2009. An optimist would have hoped to see the world a better place by now. That simply hasn't happened. On the other hand, civilization hasn't collapsed due to corruption within its major governments, or obliterated itself in a mindless paroxysm of nuclear self-destruction. So, Earth is largely unchanged, neither an idyllic utopia nor a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Of course, this also means there are many nations, regions, corporations, organizations and factions seeking to advance their own interests, beliefs and agendas. Disagreements are commonplace. Some are recent, while others have lasted for decades or even centuries. On occasion, these situations flare up into outright hostilities, but most of the time, they fester in a shadowy realm of conspiracy, innuendo and intrigue that is outside the public eye. As a result, the threats they pose, while still very real, are effectively invisible.
Alpha Protocol is Obsidian's RPG in which you're Michael Thorton, an operative employed by the titular agency, which is so secretive that almost no one knows it exists. Its purpose is to do the jobs no one else will, the ones they don't want to be associated with, but that still have to be done. One such task is finding out how a high-tech US missile system made its way into the hands of someone who used it to blast a commercial airliner out of the Eastern European skies. Naturally, you'll also want to be certain the culprits are held accountable. As always, our mission objective was clear immediately, to learn as much about the game as possible. We got of to a great start by questioning Lead Designer Chris Avellone, Senior Producer Ryan Rucinski and Systems Lead Matt MacLean."
Cultured Vultures: In the spirit of preserving some kind of history of this industry, we’ve decided to list some of the best games that you just simply can’t get hold of digitally at the minute.
I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.
Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.
Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.
wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.
Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
Many overlooked RPGs lie dormant in the catalogues of gaming, but players can pick up their swords and shields with these amazing JRPG hidden gems!
Kevin F. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Many of the best Xbox 360 games are playable on the Xbox One and Series X|S consoles. Some even with some enhanced visuals and performance. Unfortunately, not every game from the Xbox 360 library has received this glorious feat of being able to be played on more modern Microsoft consoles."
The Spider-man games will never happen. The xbox 360 Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have a better chance of happening than Spider-man titles but won't happen. The Xbox One Ultimate Alliance games delisted years ago
Yeah... you can totally forget about those entries that got delisted because of licensing issues. Those are not happening.
