Yet more Alpha Protocol movies detail protagonist, old man, fit woman

alphaprotocol6

Here comes the Sega movie deluge. The publisher's put out another three character videos from the Obsidian RPG, showing off agent main protagonist Michael Thorton, an ageing spy call Marburg and a hot colleague, Mina Tang.

Michael Thorton blows things up. That's his video done and dusted.

Marburg is a black ops agent with 20 years experience in the field. He's as "cold as they come" apparently, and he knows where some missiles are. You need to know where some missiles are. These two facts may have some bearing on the game's plot.

Mina Tang has been recruited from the NSA. She's the "voice in your ear" and you go about your very violent business. But "something about here doesn't add up". Never saw that coming.

Expect lots more movies. Sega went f**king nuts with AvP PR videos before launch, and it looks as though the publisher's now a fan of the tactic: see here, here, here and here.

It's out on May 28 and June 1 in Europe and the US, respectively.
