Take-Two Gives Agent Non-Comment: “We Haven’t Announced Anything About That Title”

Another year, another non-comment about Rockstar’s PS3 exclusive Agent. - PSLS

[Sev]

I feel like yelling out Agent in the same rapid tone as the dude from Heavy Rain yells "Jason".

"Jaaaason!", "Jaaaaaaaaaaason?"

"Aaaagent!", "Aaaaaaaaaaaagent?"

[dbjj12088]

And instead of SHAUN!!! It's GTAAA??!!!?!!

[Sev]

This works out perfectly, because Jason dies, and Shaun lives on.

[UnSelf]

spoiler alert

[Sev]

Not really, because it depends on which ending you get.

[Reverent]

Sev... Ugh... it's a spoiler because...

*SPOILER*
You said JASON dies. Nothing to do with Shauns possible death at the end. Sure Jason's might be at the beginning but still, it's a very dramatic turn in the story that will totally ruin it for players that have yet to play the game.

[dbjj12088]

Well I didn't know any of this so I can guarantee it was spoiled for me.

[Nitrowolf2]

"Not really, because it depends on which ending you get."

WTF that still makes it a spoiler

[-Mika-]

I hope this game haven't got cancelled.If you're not going to finish it. Just give it to Naughty Dog or SCE Santa Monica Studio. They would do an excellent job at finishing the game.

[Sev]

Never going to happen. Different publishers, different wallets. Very different from Sony handing over a Sony IP to another Sony developer. PS3 exclusive or not.

Besides, you've never even seen it. It may not even be worth saving. Or worth Naughty Dog's time.

Imagine Naughty Dog, gets a pile of shit called Agent dumped on their plate. Agent still sucks, and The Last of Us suffers because of it. Doesn't work like that.

[-Mika-]

It possible. Square bought the true crime game after activision canceled it.

Also you're probably right about that but take two is developing it so im not worried about it sucking.

They could work on it after they finish the titles currently working on.

[Ducky]

...because neither studio has anything better to do.

[KMCROC54]

You do realize your asking them to hand over an IP that belongs to R* ,even if it was to be a PS exclusive. Beside people at R* would be stupid to hand over an IP.

[BanditGamer]

Oh dear goodness wow! Why doesn't the UN let Naughty Dog solve world hunger? I mean they are obviously the best at everything!
Come on playstation fans, we get it's they are really great but not every franchise needs to be given to them.

[Whitefeather]

I hope it's been delayed and been converted to a PS4 exclusive launch title.

[WeskerChildReborned]

It probably could of or it went multiplatform but idk. Hopefully it's still alive though.

[iamnsuperman]

"it’s becoming increasingly infuriating to hear Sony, Take-Two and Rockstar dodging the question again and again."

To be fair I do not think Sony actually knows what is going on. I think Tretton even said he wasn't sure if it was an exclusive any more.

This is one of those games that Rockstar will not talk about for a couple of years and everyone forgets about it. Then bam it will be announced (again) saying it has been in development for a really long time.

[waltyftm]

No news is good news!!, wait what the hell am i saying, give us a few screen shots please.

[Elda]

I don't think this game is even coming out it's been 4 yrs already & they haven't shown sh*t about this game & they keep dodging questions about the game,it reminds me when Square kept dodging questions about the game Last Remnant coming to the PS3 4 yrs ago & nothing ever came of that.

[Skate-AK]

Don't forget about FFvs13.

[ChunkyLover53]

Three possible outcomes with this game as I see it.

1.The game is cancelled
2.The game is now a next generation game and multiplatoform
3.The game will come out late 2013 and will probably be multiplatform.

[doctorstrange]

4. It's a Vita exclusive

[Sev]

5. It's an Ouya exclusive.

[NastyLeftHook0]

its going to be exclusive.

[ChunkyLover53]

Microsoft has a ton of money, Sony hasn't really been in contact with Rockstar. They seem to know little to nothing about the game.

Could be a big E3 deal for Microsoft to make the game not be an exclusive, sort of like Final Fantasy.

[Hellsvacancy]

Listen to you, like you know how MS and Sony do business, lol, you have as much of a clue as we do

[NastyLeftHook0]

why would rockstar want to downgrade there game? they will make it ps3 exclusive.

[ChunkyLover53]

I don't think they'd have to downgrade anything, and my gut is telling me its now a next generation title.

If they release it late next year on current hardware, it'll be buried in my opinion.

If you look at a game like L.A. Noire, it was fine on the Xbox 360, it was one of my favorite games. It wasn't downgraded at all.

[ALLWRONG]

Yeah because the PS3 has done a fantastic job with multiplatform games. With all those shoddy 360 ports that look and run so much better on the PS3... right?

[srcBFMVBMTH]

@ ALLWRONG

Dude, the best looking games on the PS3 are leagues above the best looking games on the 360. Just look at screen shots of Halo 4 and Gears of War 3. They barely look as good, if not, at all better Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2. Games that came out 3 years ago. Multiplats are a pretty bad excuse to compare games to because the one built for a system the ground up will always be better than a port.

[NastyLeftHook0]

they took out 2 missions because la noir went multiplatform, it was not fine. and ps3 had exclusive dlc and stuff, its just better with more space, they should keep it exclusive.

[hardandsloppy]

Rockstar has to make at least one exclusive for Sony, they still owe them for making LA Noire multiplat. Sony gave them money to make LA Noire an exclusive game, and years later Rockstar decided they wanted to release it on all consoles. They then gave Sony a few options of what they would like them to make for their exclusive. Sony picked Agent. So, if Agent is not a Playstation exclusive, Rockstar will either owe them another game or Sony'll probably have to take them to court.

[Disccordia]

It came about because originally it was going to be published by Sony Computer Entertainment America but after they wasted a reported 40 million dollars on Bondi with nothing to show they washed their hands of it and Rockstar picked it up. None of us have ever seen this supposed contract and technically Rockstar owe Sony nothing.

If it was going to be released say, this year, I'd be all for it still being ps3 exclusive but now I'd rather see it for next gen console(s)

Also, I think as a corporation, T2 have to announce publicly when a project has been cancelled so I think like someone else said, no news is good news. I am not an economics expert though so don't quote me on that.

[srcBFMVBMTH]

Until Rock* official page says otherwise, I doubt it'll be multiplat. If plans ever did change, I'm pretty sure they would've updated that page by now.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Well then why announce it then not talk about? It maybe an exclusive but even I'm interested to see... I dunno whatever is Sony announced!?

[Qrphe]

Game is probably not coming oy and is cancelled. It wouldn't be the first time it ever happened. PSP had announced games that never came out (DMC and RE games).

[chrisarsenalsavart]

AGENT is not cancelled, but given rockstar games capability to move hardware, i won,t be surprised that sony decided to make it a ps4 launch game.
Ps3 has enough great games coming out for the next year or so.

[portal_2]

I hate R* more and more lately.

[doctorstrange]

Yeah, I just want some honesty

[aNDROiD17_]

just cancel it already

[MaideninBlack]

Meh. Can't get excited for this after seeing nothing but concept art.

[mikemadden]

Maybe R* is waiting for Sony to announce the $99 PS3 so they can have more people to sell the game to.

[IWentBrokeForGaming]

This game no doubt will be on PS4... I have NO doubts about that!

[Urbz7870]

If the game is canceled just say so otherwise you're just pissing ppl off by not giving atleast a shred a nit of info about the game.

[jay2]

Agent's IP is OWNED by Sony, it'll come out on PS4, and be in the videos/playable demos on it's debut probably early next yr.

[MYSTERIO360]

This game is definitely going to be released this gen as it was first mentioned back in 2007. I have a feeling that this will be better than GTA5 i maybe wrong but to be in development for so long and have two big companies working on it, it just seems that way. Plus a like espionage stuff :D
