Alpha Protocol music video trailer

by


Seems that this whole “music video trailer” thing seems to be a popular thing to do, now SEGA is flexing their rhythm and trying to make you remember the name of the protagonist in Alpha Protocol.

All I got out of the trailer is that Michael Thornton’s name is said by a ton of characters in the game, so much so that they can make a 1 minute music video out of it.

Alpha Protocol features a SEGA Saturn

by


This is probably the best news piece out of Alpha Protocol, it has a SEGA Saturn! Reminds me of Shenmue and it also having a SEGA Saturn. Not that it made sense in that game, since it was the 80’s.

But who cares, lets all go on youtube now and watch Segata Sanshiro adverts and wonder if the 3-D SEGA Saturn in game lets you play some Saturn games like on Shenmue.

First Alpha Protocol review comes in

by

The first review is in, from Spanish magazine PlayMania (issue 127). The review is that the game is great, scoring a 88 out of a hundred.

Graphics -> 80 – The exteriors are not so bad but the models and their animations are far from perfect.
Sound -> 90 – Appropriate soundtrack.
Diversity -> 89 – Even though it’s the same game, there are many possibilities when it comes to customizing your character and deciding how to play.
Duration -> 90 – The replayability factor is really high. You can play Alpha Protocol a lot of times without experiencing the same adventure.
Overall -> 88 – A spy role playing game that succeeds in blending action with stealth and gives players a high degree of freedom in choosing how they want to proceed.

Game comes out on June 1st in America, you can pre-order it on Amazon [360 – PS3 – PC] and save yourself a few bucks.

Alpha Protocol, Small World Trailer.

by

The newest trailer for Sega and Obsidians Alpha Protocol: The espionage RPG. here is the related info,

With a plot torn from todays headlines and more twists than a blockbuster movie, Alpha Protocol brings a new level of modern day realism to the world of RPGs. Tasked with uncovering the perpetrators behind a tragic missile attack on a passenger jetliner, players dive into a story rich with characters and locations to discover an international arms-dealing conspiracy. Through their actions and choices, players direct the outcome of the game as they ultimately decide who to befriend, trust or kill. Out May 28th.

The game looks like great fun, even though the graphics leave a lot to be desired.  It’ll be interesting to see how this game fairs sales wise.

Alpha Protocol has gone gold

Alpha Protocol has finally gone gold. After all the damn delays, it is now guaranteed to come out May 28th in Europe and June 1st in America.

Unless for some reason SEGA decides not to release the title at all. That would suck!

Alpha Protocol character profiles: Grigori and Sie

by


SEGA has made two new trailers for Alpha Prtocol, dealing with a couple of characters you will meet in the full game. The first character is Grigori Pazinhov, a Russian that sells information. What kind of spy game wouldn’t have a Russian?

The next character is Sie, a operative. In the game you will get to betray her or keep her around, the choice is yours. She also appears to be a nympho. Hit the jump for her trailer.

Alpha Protocol debuts tonight on 24

by


Tick-tock! The clock is ticking for Alpha Protocol’s marketing campaign. It seems that it will start tonight on 24. I usually dislike how SEGA markets their games, but this seems to be pretty fitting way to start it.

If you did not know, Jack Bauer was one of the influences in choices you can make. He was the ‘aggressive’ character. The other two influences were Jason Bourne and James Bond. Connection? All their first names start with J.

Alpha Protocol is coming out in the United States on June 1st on the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Alpha Protocol achievements revealed

by


If you are a achievement/trophy hunter, then you will be thrilled to find out that Alpha Protocol’s achievements are not that hard; at least they don’t seem that hard.

It seems that there are about twenty secret achievements. I assume they are story related and they don’t want to spoil it, seems fair. The trophies are usually the same as achievements, with a Platinum added.

It seems we may finally get a solid date for SEGA’s latest RPG developed by Obsidian. Schedule for release way back in 2009 and delayed, if my memory serves me right, upto three times, SEGA has finally penciled in a date, May 27th and May 28th for Australia and Europe respectively and a slightly later date of June 1st for North America. In the mean time we get to enjoy a snazzy new trailer that shows a little more about the world and the events occurring in Alpha Protocol.
