As reported by MMORPG. From what I read it sounds interesting but I will wait until it ships to see how good it might be at launch. Hopefully SOE learned from EQ2 and it's bad launch and wont ship this title to early. It would be good to see a non-fantasy MMO out on the market today that doesn't suck and well here's hoping Agency wont suck.

Do everyone a favor and don't buy or subscribe to SOE games so they go out of business.  They don't care about gamers, they're just MMO pimps looking to collect as many titles as possible to sell their all access pass subscription so they can still make the big bucks without having to offer the customer a game that's actually worth a damn on it's own.

Is this what we are looking for? Most new released games are pretty much the same. This so called ''spy'' concept is uncommon and rather interesting. I'll have to see what SOE have to offer, and I hope it will not be ''more of the same'' which would be a shame.

I'll definitely keep my eyes open for this game.

I oppose SOE because they perpetuate inferior products with their All Access Pass subscription.  They're basically saying- we don't have to offer a quality product; because we offer lots of shitty products for one "premium" price.

Doesn't this violate some fundamnetal rule of a free market economy?

As much as I agree with you..Sadly that is never going to happen.

But we can always hope!

I have been having fun playing EQ2 and SWG. I don't know what the hell you are talking about but if you are a disgruntled SWG vet of the post pre-CU and NGE era you really need to let it go already. Yet please let us know what MMO you are playing right now that is so great.

Never played SWG.  What they did to PlanetSide was worse.  They completely abandoned it after the first expansion which failed, downgraded the servers, eliminated all the full time staff, frequently stopped updates/development, and now provide 4-5 part timers to run the whole game... and have raised the price 2 dollars a month.

Companies like this shouldn't be in business.

What interests me most about this is the offline contact you will have with the game world. This is more like alternate reality games and a step forward for the genre.

Like most I know that have stated they won't support another SOE game because of their buisness practices or other wise. I have to say I like the concept they are throwing around and from the looks of it, it could be very appealing. But if most of you have not heard and your not in support of SOE's spy title their is a another Development studio doing the same thing and they released info about their spy gene game before SOE did. Its created by Hi-Rez studios called "Global Agenda". If you want an alternative to look at this may also get your attention. Check out there trailer. http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=19070&type=wmv

Agreed! Ever since Planetside, where sony tried to implement in game advertising I've held much disgust for sony. Death to SOE!

I banned SOE right after the first generation of SWG revamps went live. I will never play another SOE game after witnessing that deliberate license raping.  They have no respect for their subscribers and so should be given that same lack of respect.  BOYCOTT SOE! 

What would you rather do than play SOE MMO's?

Stage dive into a dry pool
Play catch with your face
Kickbox with Chuck Norris
Bikini wax with duct tape
Sky Dive with an umbrella
Watch a Paris Hilton movie

After reading the article about this game, it barely even seems like an MMO. It seems more like a single player game that you have to play online. Of course anything by SOE is suspect anyways...

I give them credit for not going fantasy I do. I am not really an SOE hater but this MMO is hjighly suspect too me

PS3 + PC!!!?!??!? How can this MMO be good think guys. PS3 has a lot of raw CPU power but only 256mb of texture ram. when is this MMO due? I dont know bout u guys but I plan to get geforce 8800GTX which has like 756mb video ram and a dual core or quad core. all this for Crysis- a game that will push my PC. Agency? It might lag thats what it might do

 

Really hopw they gonna do this. The same team working on both consoles? Has SOE ever had a good launch for just PC? I can only wonder about PS3 + PC. They gonna work those devs into the ground surely? And we will get something bugged and behind the times

They'll do it the same way other game developers have done it by allowing the game engine to scale between platforms. It's not that big of deal really. As for the 8800GTX well I have one and it rocks. You better make sure you have a enough space length wise to fit that monster of a video card into your case.
