After the confirmation in 2010 that Rockstar’s PS3 exclusive Agent was still in development, not much has been heard about the game, besides a pair of trademark filings last year.
Apparently, though, the game may have been canceled, at least according to a mail that retailer Gamefly is sending to its customers who had the game in their GameQ.
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.
No one but Rockstar knows if the game still exists.
obviously this will come out on ps4 , they cant really give people a ps4 games to ps3 owners if they haven't upgraded yet.
I feel the retailer will be the last person to know about this. Why would they be told. It isn't like it was coming out next week and they needed to prepare. Gamefly is probably doing what we are all thinking and that is it is never coming out (especially for the PS3)
If this wasn't going to come out or if Rockstar dosen't want to make it then all they have to do is give Sony their money back.
I'm sorry but if I was Sony and I helped fund a game so it could be an exclusive (L.A Noire) only for them to turn around and say "Listen you let us make this game multiplatform and we'll make you another exclusive game, fully built up us at Rockstar" then I would be either demanding my money back or pestering them to get the game made. Sony (and us) have been patient so far.
It's not like they are doing Agent for Sony as a favour, it was a deal. It's why I'm baffled at Sony's "Well it's up to Rockstar" attitude.
Kinda obvious,This game was more myth thn Last guardian..
Dont think anyone is surprised
