It appears Sega's Alpha Protocol is going to suffer a delay, the precise length of which is the topic in question. The last official word we heard from the publisher was Alpha Protocol was to be released October 6 (that's next week!), a release date that has seemed unlikely for quite some time as numerous retailers have long since shifted that date to late October. The latest release date change causing questions is that mega-retailer GameStop has shifted its expected launch date for the title to 6/1/2010, with Amazon Canada also showing a 2010 release (Amazon US has not made any change). Developer Obsidian Entertainment is forwarding all requests for comment to Sega which, in traditional Sega fashion, means all requests for comment have been met with the Sega Wall of Silence[TM]. We'll update as soon as somebody decides to say something. Remember, the company line from Sega is that Alpha Protocol is supposed to hit store shelves next week.
