Cross-Play Unlikely for The Agency

The odds are against PlayStation 3-to-PC cross-platform play for Sony Online Entertainment's upcoming spy MMO, The Agency, CEO John Smedley tells Next-Gen.

"If I was a betting man, I'd bet that we don't allow it," said Smedley of cross-platform play. "You'll still be able to log in with your character on either [PS3 or PC]."

SOE still plans on giving cross-platform play a shot, but the shooter mechanics of The Agency make for a tough translation between a console's controller and a PC's mouse and keyboard setup.
