For those who haven’t played it, the main gist of the story is as follows (minor spoilers ahead): You play as Michael Thorton, a secret agent type that is on the run from his own government in a frantic game of cat and mouse. If you’re not familiar with the team, they were the group behind the ever popular Fallout: New Vegas, a game so good that Bethesda refuses the creation of a second one… I’m not bitter, you’re bitter.Īnyway, Obsidian Entertainment has certainly been involved with some fantastic titles over the years, with Alpha Protocol definitely being one of the more talked about entries in their history. One such game that comes to mind is the espionage-RPG-thriller, Alpha Protocol, a gem of a game that was designed by the wonderful people over at Obsidian Entertainment. As a developer, how many times has a new Sonic game had people nervous before release? As a publisher, however, how many times has SEGA been apart of something that’s garnered the reaction of: “Oh, they supported that? Cool.” Probably more than one would admit. The same could be said for any developer, honestly, but with SEGA it’s a more consistent feeling of curiosity and worry. SEGA has always had an interesting history of developing and producing titles. With that being said, today I’ll be asking the question: “Whatever Happened To… Alpha Protocol?” Has there ever been a point when you’ve looked through your gaming library and wondered, “Huh, whatever happened to this title?” Well, I’ll be taking a look at videogame standalones/franchises and the lead up to their eventual absence.
