You'd think a title so marginalized by the gaming press for its lack of polish would sell horribly. Not so for Sega's
Alpha Protocol that has managed to transcend low review scores with a sell through of 700,000 copies since release, according to
Siliconera.
It looks like there was a nice chunk of the gaming audience ready for an RPG/shooter hybrid that leaned closely to BioWare's decision-making titles. Unfortunately, Sega has publicly stated that they will not be working on a sequel to
Alpha Protocol...unless, of course, the seemingly slow burn of the game proves the proposition of a successor fruitful. Time will tell, fellow gamers.
