So, in this weeks GT TV:
Around the 8 minute mark.

- Geoff points out how Agent was not at the briefing and how they annoucned that last year exclusively for the PlayStation 3. "That's still coming?"
- Peter Dille tells him to talk to Rockstar about updates on their product.

Seemed like a straight forward question, what could be going on? Rockstar doesn't want it exclusive anymore? Or was the Sony guy just being an ass?

Discuss.

why does it have to be either? Just because its suppose to be exclusive doesnt mean sony can make them show up to e3. They are prob. just working on it and will let sony know when they have something they are ready to show. Sony will probably let Rockstar do what they please with thier game because im sure thats one company Sony wouldnt want to piss off.

"However, when quizzed as to whether or not anything had changed regarding the game's PS3 exclusivity during Take-Two's Q2 earnings call last night, company boss Strauss Zelnick commented: "On Agent, there's no change in situation on that title."

So that's that.

i think its just the fact that Rockstar doesn't really unveil any info until they're close to release. look at red dead redemption. before Jan2010 i barley new anything about RDR even though we knew about for 3 years. it was in the 6 month leading up to the launch of RDR that most of the information was spilled and i'm betting it will be the same for agent

Well, it would make sense to talk to Rockstar on their product. Sony ISN'T making Agent, Rockstar is.

And the thread is done. For people that don't know the back story, Sony allowed Rockstar out of their GTA exclusivity agreement in exchange for a new IP that would be exclusive to the PS3 which is Agent. It is going to remain exclusive.

Really? News to me. Why would Sony do such a thing? They should have kept it exclusive to increase the much needed sales boost. :?

Wasn't that just speculation? It seems a little ridiculous.

Yeah I doubt Sony would let a proven commercial-monster like GTA out of their clutches in exchange for an unproven and unknown new IP.Especially considering GTA would have given PS3 sales a HUGE boost if it had been PS3 exclusive.

Okay, we haven't even HEARD about Agent since what, 2007? Yeah we got a logo but that's nothing.

As far as I am concerned Agent doesn't even exist.

Take-Two is publishing?

I highly doubt it'll stay exclusive if that's the case. unless Sony is throwing them a larger pile of money than MS had.

the thread is done? nah a less well known website like PSU is likely making the information up..since they post absolutely no proof whatsoever they just say hey he said this. where as GTTV actually has video of it. and Gametrailers is a far more trustworthy and well known site. then you have the fact june 9th, june 19th.

"At this phase in the cycle, when you're trying to launch a new franchise, exclusivity can really help you launch the franchise. It can give you the kind of platform that you need to start exclusive, start in the right kind of way with the right kind of partner. Exclusivity does work", Feder went on. Agent is being overseen by the Housers, founding fathers of Rockstar. Development is being handled by Rockstar North, the studio behind GTA IV. http://news.spong.com/article/18164/Why-Rockstars-Agent-is-PS3-Exclusive Last year, yes, but things havent seem to have moved.

Don't bother he's a 360 fanboy. Rockstar should be working on Agent at this point but I wouldn't expect it until Holiday 2011.

they have already released some info on AGENT long ago,very little but its something. "The title, which promises to take "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."

Knowing M$, they probably paid them lots of money for this like they did with GTA IV to have it come to the 360 also. Let's just wait and see.

AHugeCat is a huge 360 fanboy regardless of what he said in this thread which was fanboyish anyway. You should've seen his past PS3 bashing and ridiculous signatures rating all PS3 exclusives with 0/10 and such lol. Agent was officially announced at E3 2009. Saying we have a new exclusive from such and such company isn't really anything concrete to go off of.

As far as I know Agent was formed from a 2005 agreement that Sony and Rockstar had made that Sony would get an exclusive new Rockstar franchise.

Isnt Sony partially funding Agent? Id say that ensures AT LEAST a one year exclusivity...............if not entirely. ;)
