GamerFitNation: "The PlayStation 4 was recently announced and with it a change in the future of gaming. While we were all assuming that it would inevitable be revealed there was always one question in the back of my mind. What about the games that could be announced next generation? Read along as he write about five particular titles he believe are next gen titles that haven’t been announced yet."
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.
You can understand some games getting canceled, but these awesome looking games still baffle us to this very day.
"Tommy saving the planet from an army of aliens after they abducted him and his entire bar, with the game ending on the promise that Tommy would be back, but that promise was never fulfilled"
The thing is with the original Prey 2 that Tommy wasn't even the main character, they replaced him with some generic looking space bounty hunter. It was a refreshing change to see an awesome Native American character with ancestral like powers fight aliens yet they ditched him. It was only after an outcry they showed much later in a new preview that Tommy was in the game as an NPC.
I'd have prefered a real sequel with Tommy as the main character, literally picking right up from the originals ending.
As for Eight Days...Sony really needs to pick this up
If Amy Hennig was still at ND, I'd have loved to see her tackle it after what she did with Uncharted.
I thought that was awesome too, and honestly i wish people werent so damn critical about cultural variety in games. I feel like people try to ruin devs lives if even one detail is off about their culture in a game and so everyone is too scared to try anymore
One of the lead engine programmers for Prey 2 at Human Head was my programming instructor when i was taking game design. This game was in limbo at the time and we asked once and only once about this game, the misery in his eyes when he told us "this is the 1st and only time ill ask you to never ask me about that game" was something ill never forget😅 he used a couple assets through the curriculum for teaching purposes but nothing very tangible. Just a function here, a 3d prop there. Such a shame. Years later i saw him at a magic tournament, we caught up and he still thinks about that game and how it's "practically done" probably sitting on a drive somewhere
Practically done? Jeez that fking blows because that looked much more interesting then what bethsada made. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the one bethsada made.
Lmno looked interesting.
I'd knock titanfall and fez off the list. Add something else. Scarface 2 man only if would've been awesome. Prey 2 should be higher to. Either way not a bad list. Out of 20 there's only 2 I'd hate on.
That gen got a lot of games canned right before the finish line. Cipher Complex, Battlefront 3, legacy of kain dead sun just to name a few
One that's not on the list is Killing Day, I remember seeing the trailer in 2005 and being impressed at the time. Being Ubisoft you know it would have been a AAAA game too, lol
2 Days to Vegas and The Getaway 3 are two other games that seemed promising but never came out.
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?
If I remember correctly, LA Noire was being developed by Team Bondi under a 3 game exclusivity contract with Sony. For some reason the contract was terminated and development of LA Noire by Bondi was cancelled, but resumed by Rockstar half complete and released as multiplatform. Agent was supposed to be an exclusive title by Rockstar in return for LA Noire.
I’m sure there’s many more details I don’t remember as it was 15 years ago. Some of GTA5 is recycled from Agent though

Iirc, sony terminated the contract because of the developers beeing mitreated by rockstar. Rockstar was "supporting" with the development.
Found it.

That's the one. Sony Online was in charge of that one and were the team responsible for Everquest
Nah la noire was always something different the link between la noire and aren't was that Sony was originally going to obtain exclusivity to it. Sony was instead offered agent as a PlayStation exclusive if they allowed Rockstar to reneg and make la noire a Multi plat
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.
Our go old school with Golgo 13 out Rolling Thunder..
Great IPs that could take a swing at reviving.
if they were to make a sequel to Perfect Dark that would be awesome!
I still want Syphon Filter. Considering the advances that specific type of game has undergone since the last console version, I think it could be huge for Sony. And until they make it i'm not going to shut up about it.
