Alpha Protocol Delay Is Real…Now Coming in 2010
There have been several swirling rumors that Alpha Protocol was going to meet the same fate of Bayonetta and so many other titles that have been shifted to a 2010 release date. But, nothing official had come out of Sega right up to the actual calendar release date for Alpha Protocol. So, when Alpha Protocol did not hit Steam, Gamestop, Best Buy or any other retailer, Sega and Obsidian came clean and said the game was indeed delayed until Spring 2010.
Yes, the release date is ambiguous, with it coming any time between April and June of next year. This is a bit of a worry for this title, because it is the second major delay for Alpha Protocol, which was initially suppose to hit shelves in February of 2009. Now we are going to be over a year out on the original release date. Lets hope this has more to do with not wanting to release in a busy holiday season, but to be honest, the beginning of next year is not looking sparsly populated either. No word on whether the delay is development related, as nothing beyond the date of delay has been released by Sega or Obsidian.

By the time this game finally comes out, I will have finished Rockstar's Agent. Platinum, even.
Are you kidding me? Agent will be lucky to have one screenshot by the time this game comes out.
^ This would be a good bet. Stakes?
I'm not so sure I'll end up buying Alpha Protocol now. It's still definitely on my radar, but I was mainly thinking of it as a game that would hold me over until Mass Effect 2 and Splinter Cell: Conviction. But who knows, maybe they'll be able to drag me back in.
