Video Game Baldness: The Hairless Gaming Heroes

These game figures have all adopted a shaved head as part of their signature look. Their shiny melon's have become as much, if not more, a part of their image than anything else. This rings especially true of the ladies who find themselves on the list who prove that bald is still beautiful.

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
