[HILO OFICIAL] Agent

[Take-Two: "Agent para PS3 va a redefinir el género"]
Ben Feder, presidente ejecutivo de Take-Two, ha hablado con Gamesindustry sobre Agent, el nuevo título de Rockstar exclusivo de PlayStation 3 que traslada al jugador al mundo del espionaje y asesinatos políticos en plena Guerra Fría, a finales de los 70.

“El juego, como todos los de Rockstar North, va a ser muy, muy fresco. Va a ir al límite, va a redefinir el género y va a revolucionar la forma de experimentar los videojuegos de un modo que no hemos visto antes”, comenta Feder. “Son el mejor equipo de desarrollo del planeta”, añade Feder en relación a los responsables de Grand Theft Auto.

Ben Feder también tuvo palabras sobre la exclusividad de Agent para PlayStation 3, indicando que los principales motivos para tomar esta decisión fueron creer que la consola de Sony es la que mejor se adapta a este título, y las buenas relaciones de negocio que han tenido siempre con la compañía japonesa.

“Si no haces un título exclusivo puedes llegar a mucho más público, pero si haces un juego exclusivo obtienes un soporte por parte de los editores de un modo que no podrías esperar normalmente”, ha señalado. “Por otra parte tenemos mucho respeto a Sony y unas excelentes relaciones de negocio. Las plataformas PlayStation son las más adecuadas para este título”.

Agent traslada a los jugadores a través de un viaje paranoico a un mundo de contra-inteligencia, espionaje y asesinatos políticos en plena Guerra Fría a finales de los 70. Por el momento no se conocen más detalles.

“Aunque los jugadores no hayan visto nada aún, creedme, va a merecer la pena. Cuando veáis lo que ‘Agent’ es, os quedaréis alucinados.“

“No he jugado al título pero obviamente lo he visto y creo que los jugadores se van a quedar con la boca abierta. A veces cuando lanzas una franquicia nueva es muy importante asegurarte de que cuentas con el soporte adecuado, así atraes la atención d los usuarios y futuros jugadores.”

“En comparación a ‘GTA’ puedo decir que es totalmente diferente y que los personajes evolucionan de un modo radicalmente distinto. Es un juego sobre espionaje ambientado en los setenta. ‘GTA’ obviamente propone una experiencia urbana, la típica historia de “vagabundo a millonario”. Son líneas de historia diferentes, muy muy muy diferentes y con un desarrollo de personajes también diferente. Va a ser una experiencia muy fresca para los jugadores.”

What do we know about Rockstar North's PlayStation 3 exclusive title Agent? Not much, other than that Rockstar founder Sam Houser believes that Agent, set in the 1970s and full of delicious espionage, will be "the ultimate action game."

Take-Two CEO Ben Feder sheds a little more light on the mysterious PS3 game to Eurogamer, saying that Agent will feature "very, very different storylines, very different character development" from the wildly successful Rockstar North series Grand Theft Auto.

"It's a game about espionage, set in the 1970s. GTA is obviously more about an urban experience, a typically rags to riches experience," Feder says. "It's going to be very fresh for gamers."

The Take-Two CEO doesn't have much to share beyond that, opting to opine "I think gamers will be blown away by it."

Officially, Take-Two says that "Agent takes players on a paranoid journey into the world of counter-intelligence, espionage and political assassinations during the height of the Cold War at the end of the 1970s."

As to whether it's truly a third-party exclusive to one particular console, as almost no games are these days, Feder doesn't say, instead offering "we don't disclose anything beyond what we've already said."

GameGuru reports: "Rockstar North's big announcement at Electronic Entertainment Exposition was regarding Agent, an exclusive that is currently headed towards Sony's platform. It has now come to our notice that, apparently, there is a multiplayer aspect of the game that is also being worked upon."

At Sony’s E3 conference it was announced that the PlayStation 3 was getting an exclusive franchise from prolific developer Rockstar Games in the form of Agent. Besides a cool looking logo and a simple summary that the game would be a spy story set in the 1970s no other details were given. And of course in typical Rockstar fashion it’ll be quite some time before we see any media or learn new details on the project.

But the sharp eyes at the Superannuation blog have found some interesting info on Agent which shows that the project has been around for awhile. It seems that development on Agent has been going on for longer than we thought as the resume of a 3D modeler lists the game as a PlayStation 2 and Xbox title. The resume also lists the game as a Rockstar San Diego project which is interesting since the game is now being developed by the GTA team at Rockstar North. It's unclear why development on Agent stopped when it was being developed on the PS2 and Xbox and why Rockstar decided to start things up again on the PS3.

The other interesting piece of info Superannuation dug up sheds some light on a potential environment in Agent. Once again the info comes from a resume of an Environment Artist who lists his duties on Agent as being part of a team sent to Cairo to capture over 10,000 reference photos for the game.

This info is particularly interesting as it shows that Agent could be an international affair and it may be somewhat ditching the typical Rockstar format of sticking to one key sandbox location. Obviously this may not be the case as the Cairo trip was when Rockstar San Diego was working on the project so who knows what we can expect and what changes have been made since Rockstar North have taken over the project. But if Cairo will be the sole location in the game it still would be rather unique due to the landscape and if Rockstar pulls an OSS 117 then I’ll be quite happy.

Take Two has just confirmed Agent is still in development at Rockstar North.

“The short answer on that is yes, it is still in development,” the company said. We think it was either CEO Ben Feder or chairman Strauss Zenick who said it.
The game has been hidden underground since its reveal at E3 last year, as a PS3 exclusive at Sony’s press conference.
It was dated for this year back in fall of last year, but nothing specific was given.
Rockstar did say, however, that the espionage title set in the 70s would be “spectacular” – so at least that is something.
The news is out of the company’s Q1 financials conference call

We think it was either CEO Ben Feder or chairman Strauss Zenick who said it.

El tema de q se base en los 70´s mola bastante, así será como la continuación del Mafia II, q va de los 40´s a los 60´s

Exclusives will soon be something of the past, or at least that’s what many in the industry would like gamers to believe. And it’s true, if they’re referring to publishers like Activision, EA, THQ Take Two amongst others. It really makes no sense at all to make a game exclusive to one console and leave out 40 million potential consumers.

So why on God’s earth would Rockstar, the company behind stellar efforts like GTA, and the upcoming hot shot Red Dead Redemption develop another one of its promising titles, Agent, exclusive to Sony’s PlayStation 3?
Wedbush Morgan Securities Analyst, Michael Pachter says he knows the whole story as to why the game will only be released on the PS3. And speaking to Eurogamer in a recent interview, he made known to the public what happened behind closed doors.

“I get asked a question, “Do you think there will be console exclusives in the future?” And I say, “No, I don’t.” I get lots of people saying, “Oh what an idiot – he doesn’t even know The Agent’s coming out!” It’s not like I don’t know about The Agent; of course I know that game is coming out. I also know the story of why the Agent is coming out exclusively on the PS3,” Pachter relayed to the website.

Eurogamer then asked Pachter what happened with Agent. The analyst wasted no time to release his “inside info”:

“When Microsoft paid Take-Two to make GTA IV non-exclusive… In other words, GTA IV was going to be a PS3 exclusive, but Microsoft paid Rockstar and Take-Two to make it a non-exclusive, and they paid them a lot. The number I’ve heard, and I’m sure this is right, is $75m, and that probably includes the funding for the first DLC packs too. It’s more than the $50m that people talk about,” he said.

And Sony – I’m not sure if they had a firm agreement but they may have had a handshake – said to Take-Two, “You’ve got to give us something else.” And the “something else” was a zombie game that Rockstar wanted to work on. But while Rockstar was in the planning phase, Dead Rising came out and Left 4 Dead was announced. Rockstar realised they were up against a saturated market and Valve, and, “What can we possibly do that will be any better than what Valve’s done?” They started again and that’s when they came up with the idea of The Agent, which nobody actually knows what it is. That is the back story.”

And there you have it. The game will be released hopefully sometime next year for the PS3. But left up to Pachter, even long time Sony third party developers like Insomniac would be multiplatform. He told said developer that their games “would do well”.

“There’s stuff that’s in the pipeline now, of course, but a publisher would be foolish to sign an exclusive deal. A developer could do it. I’ve told the Insomniac guys repeatedly. They don’t own the Ratchet & Clank IP or the Resistance IP but they’re such good developers. I’m like, “Why aren’t you guys doing multi-platform? Your games would sell.

Pachter continued: “As if those guys couldn’t create something – of course they could. It’s not like Sony came up with the art and graphics on Ratchet & Clank. The Insomniac guys are nuts not to do multi-platform. But they like their deal with Sony, so they’ll keep doing exclusives. LittleBigPlanet guys, Media Molecule, I feel the same way. What were they thinking selling to Sony? They must be Liberal Democrats!”

Now, though, a tipster has told me that Sony are seemingly preparing to show a “jaw-dropping” footage of Agent for the upcoming E3 taking place this June. It’ll apparently contain over tw0 minutes of pure gameplay footage and will be followed by the first official details of the title. The release date is also expected to be a 2012 date.

We know. You’re tired of seeing that old Agent logo. You want screenshots, video, and details. Well, we don’t have that. What we do have is a reassuring update that Agent is still in development.

During Take-Two Interactive’s earnings call earlier today, company CEO Strauss Zelnick was asked if Max Payne 3 and Agent were still in development (although, Max Payne 3 has returned to the media recently).

“Max Payne 3 and Agent are still in development,” said Zelnick.

The first screenshots of Rockstar North’s E3 2009-announced PlayStation 3-exclusive Agent may have been leaked by way of architectural visualizations artist Leigh Donoghue.

Two images of a game called Agent appear in his portfolio, each with four screenshots. Rockstar is mentioned in the file name of the images; he’s also done work for Grand Theft Auto IV. The images claim the visualization was done in 2009, meaning the game’s probably progressed much further — if the images are legit, that is.
