Alpha Protocol Possibly Delayed

Posted by IcyStorm on September 28th, 2009

Sega’s Alpha Protocol may have been delayed from its original October 6th release date to a currently unknown time. GameStop’s US site and Amazon’s Canada site have listed a new release date of June 2010, implying that the game will not drop next week. Obsidian Entertaiment and Sega of America are unfortunately silent at the moment and have not commented on the delay yet.

Alpha Protocol is a third-person action RPG being developed by Obsidian Entertainment. It features a rookie CIA agent that tries to uncover a conspiracy after he is betrayed and wanted by the U.S. government. The game also has a dialogue system with choices based on the “three J.B.s”: James Bond, Jason Bourne, and Jack Bauer. Sega and Obsidian intend to release Alpha Protocol on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows platforms.

    As much as this popular delaying business is in effect, Alpha Protocol might really benefit from this, too many life-consuming games are heading our way in the next few months like Dragon Age and Modern Warfare 2. Games like Bioshock and Mass Effect 2 will also hurt it if it falls around that time gap so I hope they pick wisely. People are tough when it comes to length games, it’s hard to pick up too many of them as forgetting you have a life leads to bad B.O. and a lot of friendly hand time.

      I’d assume the Jack Bauer path just has you screaming and firing guns indiscriminently at whoever happens to be in your line of sight.

      There should be a Jack Black option, which causes you to rock their fucking socks off.
