Here is the sex scene in Alpha Protocol that unlocks the achievement/trophy ‘Savage Love’. Even though its a sex scene, its very PG-13 and not graphic. I think it does better at showing you the dialog tree than most of the other trailers.
Alpha Protocol is out now in America on PC, PS3 and 360.
It is now official, since IGN has a hands-on preview of the title. It is said the game will revolve around 8 war factions and not have the epic scope that Empire had.
The game will also offer small scale ambush fights to full scale wars. This should be pretty good, since Samurai anything is good in my book.

Alpha Protocol came out on the 28th, the charts ended on the 29th. So how did it do for one day sales? Rather alright actually.The 360 version came in at number 21 and the PS3 version charted at number 24. Not the best, the success of this title will be determine on how it does the upcoming weeks.
Football Manager 2010 is still charting, rather low at number 38. That is SEGA’s money maker as they say. UK loves football.

Could this mystery teaser trailer from IGN be for the long awaited Shogun 2 Total War? It seems to point in that direction.
Currently we have no translation for what is being said or typed but I’ll update you when I find out more.
Here it is the final and arguably the best trailer for Alpha Protocol. In 60 seconds someone HAS to die. Who’s it going to be?
Apparently this is a leaked Press Release of Shogun 2: Total War, It could be a fake so I’m filing it under ‘rumor’ for now, but if it is it’s a very well made one indeed and it promises some pretty cool features!
Hit the jump for the Press Release.
Alpha Protocol has been getting mixed reviews due to its bugs and other issues. Some loved it, guys at Joystiq did not. One of the developers commented on the review, saying SEGA should have canceled Alpha Protocol instead of Aliens RPG. Regardless of drama, I will be bringing you a review in the upcoming days.
To see his full comment, hit the jump.
Sega and the Creative Assembly have been hinting at a new Total War game with a teaser count down on their home page HERE. However this is no ordinary count down! In true Total War style instead of counting down in mere days to announcement it is counting down in historically important dates. The date is currently at 1751 but is almost certain to drop further considering the latest news we have heard.
Creative Assembly first hinted to IGN that the next game would be ‘back to basics’ this made it quite apparent that we would be dealing with a sequel. Having had a sequel to Medieval 2 only recently, this leaves Rome: Total War and Shogun: Total War.
And if Turkish site ‘Oyungezer‘ is to believed it will be Shogun Total War we see at E3 2010. The site claims to have been penciled in by Sega Europe for a 2:30pm appointment to talk about Shogun 2: Total War.
While I would take this as a rumour for now, it was either this or the other and now the scales seem to point to this!
Alpha Protocol is coming out on 3 platforms, but which platform looks the best? I got to say, all three look the same to me. Sure the PC version is a bit sharper. But not by much.
Obviously the site is not running the PC version to its full potential, but since this is the only comparison out so far, it is safe to assume each platform is a safe buy. The game is out today in Europe, out in America on June 1st.

Alpha Protocol comes out tomorrow in Europe and June 1st in the United States, you can check what the first 10 minutes of the game is like. The video was posted by Xbox Evolved.
Why does Micheal walk around like he is a huge body builder unable to move his shoulders or chest? I guess that is how spies walk.
The nifty Alpha Protocol trailer with multiple choice endings is now up on youtube. (So we can finally embed it on Segabits now! Thanks Sega!)
When you hear the woman say ‘Where too Mike?’ you can choose the next step of the trailer by simply clicking on the destination you want on the video. Then it will promptly load the next part. If you ask me it’s a pretty cool way to highlight the ‘choice system’ of the game

OnLive is a ‘cloud computing’ service that will let you play any games (that are on the service), on a decent PC, as long as you have a internet connection. How does it do this? It streams the game online, so the game is never actually playing on your PC, its playing on a PC owned by OnLive. I don’t think the service will be that popular, but we shall see.
The title is suppose to be a launch line-up for OnLive. It is set to launch on June 17th at the E3 Expo. Hopefully you have a fast enough internet connection.

Remember that Alpha Protocol comes out on June 1st in America. Amazon has the game a few bucks cheaper, so drop in that pre-order if you haven’t yet. The game is coming to the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
SEGA’s on a crazy spree, putting out trailers like its going out of fashion. This one shows how you can tackle missions your own way, by eliminating the targets you want.
I know the trailer stops short, that is how the original source had it. Don’t blame me.

SEGA will be bringing some of its SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive classics to a PC near you starting June 1st. SEGA’s first games released will be Golden Axe, Ecco the Dolphin, and Vectorman.
SEGA stated they will cost $2.99 per title. The games will be coming to Steam and “other platforms,” but lets be honest, we all probably use Steam.
SEGA sent out screens for Gain Ground, Altered Beast, Space Harrier, Crack Down, Sonic 3D Blast, and Shadow Dancer; assuming these games will be coming out as well. I did not upload screens of the games because we already know what they look like.
