Techtorial: As seen from Sony's PS4 announcement, Rockstar Games is working something for the next-gen console. As expected, the community shows enthusiasm about the possible titles included.
No game proves how quickly things can change in terms of ethos at a studio quite like Agent.
Rockstar's game outpost has steadily declined since HD console gaming started . Hell, they were releasing new games every year since the PS2 launched, up to the start of the 7th gen.
It appears that the first screenshots for Rockstar's canceled spy game, Agent, have been leaked online.
I thought this got cancelled then rolled into LA Noir
Also, does anyone remember the feature they were supposed to have where you received a text in the game it came to your actual mobile phone?
I've already seen quite a few of these years ago. But still, it's a shame it was cancelled. Hopefully one day we'll get another globetrotting spy thriller. Maybe MS can get the rights to Alpha Protocol from Sega, or have Obsidian make a spiritual successor.
Could this mean yet another IP being ignored by Take Two
The fact that it has been this long and was intended to be a PS3 title pretty much is all you need to confirm it is not happening.
I think the writer is "a little late" if they are wondering on if Rockstar is ignoring the Agent game announcement. Anyone waiting this long for the game have gone to college, got married and had kids. It's not an IP if there wasn't any game released.
It's just another reminder of an announcement that went nowhere. Same as Deep Down, 8 Days, Killing Day, The Getaway, etc.
If it ever shows up, it would be the surprise of the year. But I wouldn't bother holding your breath.
I feel this article missed the point somewhat. It was clearly announced at the time when said image in question was shown that these publishers and developers had pledged support to the PS4. That doesn't mean they all have titles in development.
That's not to say they don't. Somebody like Rockstar is bound to have had the next generation in their plans for a few years now. But linking this to Agent may lead to disappointment. It's as likely to happen at this point as it not happening. If it wasn't for those screenshots leaked a few years back, I would have said this game never even existed.
