"Meanwhile, Alpha Protocol (PC, PS3, 360) is projected for a February 2009 release, firming up that "early 2009" estimate."

 

I bet it gets postponed a few times, every time for a few months, just like NWN2. So that means November 2009 then.

it'll be done when it's done

 

no rush release like K2 this time hopefully

Rush release? AP has been in development since March 2006. Far away from "rushing".

I hope it comes out before schedule!! Maybe September or October '08

at least it's not gonna be like Duke Nukem Forever, or Prey

Sounds like a nice date, bit surprised they aren't projecting Christmas release, but that's a good thing for us, really - and th e devs, who won't have to crunch like a pyramid building slave for the xmas rush.

 

Seems like they announced the title at a nice date, they will dip low for a few months then restart the hype just as the christmas frantic rush fades.

Even though if the game is not rushed, its still concerning to know that the project had been switched hands between three lead designers with MCA being the third.

 

Hopefully the inner working's finally finds its pacing and consistency again by now.

See, this doesn't worry me. It should have something like a year and a half in Chris's hands, so the earlier two leads can be seen as 'variety introducers'. You know, like a boiling pot of ideas where in the end the best few are selected by peer review and worked on the most extensively. Or something.

[Xard]

What do you mean with earlier two leads?

[Zoma]

Two baby. Unless I got mixed up with the extra from Project New Jersey, but if I recall correctly, its two.

 

Maybe the devs could give a precise answer instead.

[Humodour]

What do you mean with earlier two leads?

 

Zoma said there has been 3 leads.

[Xard]

Yeah, Avellone that guy whose name started R (gahh, Raynolds?) and ?

[Humodour]

The Muffin Man.

[Master Assassin]

Oh goody, a release date! I'm pretty sure that isn't the one where it actually comes out...like others have said, I look fwd to a couple of delays for whatever reason. Better be a good reason.
