Alpha Protocol release

28 May

Alpha Protocol is one of the latest games released this month. Labeled as a Spy Action RPG game, Alpha Protocol will put you in the personage of Michael Thorton, a fallen governmental agent carrying a heavy secret that could prevent a international catastrophe.

The game graphics looks alright and the gameplay sounds fun. We haven’t had a chance to test the game yet but we will do very soon. The “action rpg” is intriguing and done correctly, could start a new genre of games. You don’t see that many spy games that are really revolutionary. When you’ve played the like of Metal Gear and Splinter Cell you’ve played them all, we say.

GeForce GTX 480

480card

Nvidia’s latest range of graphic chips is a feast of power that will set you wallet on fire. Based on the new Fermi architecture, this range of graphic card is literally what is meant to be the most powerful chip on the planet.

For the price we were really expecting something amazing. But it’s not quite that. First the card is very noisy and seem to get very hot very quickly.

In games tests show that it is indeed very fast but also overkill when used in single monitors set up. An ATI 5870 will do just as good for £100 less.
