Aye, good stuff. Also it seems like there's atleast few internal titles in the work :brows:

Hate the living, love the dead.

Ah, all good to whet the appetite more..

Yeah, those are good interviews. And it will be really interesting to see what other stuff OEI has in the works as well. New Vegas we know about, but it hasn't been shown off yet. And then the other stuff using the Onyx engine.

Wow, Avellone actually said this about comparing AP to ME:

New interview :

I wish people would focus those questions more on the actual game than on Chris' opinion on everything going on in the game industry! Come on, it's an interview about the game, please try to have more than the third of the questions dedicated to it!

:sweat: The Bond vs Bauer vs Bourne story is truly hilarious.

 

Good stuff over all, can't wait to get the game.

True 'nough... However, Derek Flint could take all three...

Weren't we promised more promotion material for Alpha Protocol at the beginning of November? What's up with that?

It's probably going to drown in DA:O and later ME2 stuff anyway. I suspect the level of interest for Alpha Protocol is so low, Obsidian is better served with holding back and then build momentum a few weeks prior to the release.

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

Agreed. It's probably wiser to build up for a media blitz in the last weeks before release. AP's current release date is in a rather quiet time of the year anyway (not that many game releases in late spring or early summer), it will not have much competition.

Got Final Fantasy 13 due in March, and given track records, it's entirely possible that ME2 and Splinter Cell (who I suppose are Alpha Protocol's biggest competitors) will both be delayed to around about that time. Bah.

And Alpha Protocol is due May 31, according to Amazon. There's plenty of time between the two to not cause friction.

Those are two big MAYBEs. I don't rule out the possibility, but there's little evidence that this will happen.

Oh, I thought AP was March for some reason. Looks like I wasn't paying enough attention.

The dates are all over the place, the retailers have probably been given a vague Q2 2010 timeframe. I've seen dates from late March to June depending on what source you check.

Yes, it's all a big conspiracy plot to have widely different dates showing to confuse the hell out of people... 8)

Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

Not the most exciting news, but apparently new pictures of the game were given recently :

Okay, the image of the Russian mob boss still bugs me : is that real, or is it photoshoped? I mean, he looks almost "real" :skull:

Its real. Its shown in one of AP's trailers though I can't remember which one.

Think they've got some sort of filter going there? It does look a bit better than the earlier screenshots.

They have more time to polish the graphics perhaps? I saw recently an old movie of Mike slamming Gregory's head on the bar, I think you can really see the difference with the most recent ones, both in animation, design, and ambiance (in the last one I saw, people in the background actually reacted to the slamming).

We've been tightening up the graphics on level three.

Let me get back to sleeping. I'm tired...
