Rockstar Games’ Agent for PS3 is probably less than a year from release. Remember that interview from PlanetGrandTheftAuto.com? This is why you should be excited about Rockstar Games’ Agent. That is, of course, provided you own a PS3.

Agent is said to be sure to become Rockstar’s next big hit since GTA III – yes, that’s III, not IV – and if this video is any true indication of the quality that Rockstar North intends to achieve with Agent, then this is probably going to end up the reason I cave and buy a console.

Not much is known about Agent as of yet, but is this the title Sam Houser was talking about here? Is it empty Sony hype? Let me know your expectations for Rockstar Games’ Agent.

I have been wondering about the relatively nicely priced slimline PS3. Not to buy it, of course. Should I have any money by then, it would have to be Agent to do that for me. Get me into a console. No other announced game has me excited like Agent does, and even still I’m waiting for the YouTube gameplay footage. Yea, I use YouTube to help with decisions like that, what of it?

Anyway, this is about the slim PS3 – is it too early? Some have said so… I wonder if they had to do it before it was too late.  There had been rumors for a while about one coming out, perhaps consumers were not thinking about the PS3 as something to buy because they expected the thin one to come along. Well, there it is.

The odd thing about the suggestion is that PS3 was reported numerous times to be doing very well – maybe Sony forsaw some peak, expected decline, and jumped the gun, thus extending their momentum? I don’t know, maybe you have an opinion?

BoGT Slated For Fall '09

With the T2 press release for their Ballad Of Gay Tony episodic content, Rockstar Games’ second episodic release for the new Liberty City found in Grand Theft Auto IV, there came a bit of a shocker to the gaming community worldwide: This second episode will be delivered not only the same way as Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned was delivered, but will also be packaged with The Lost & Damned, that’s both episodes on old-style DVD, for $39.99.

This does not include, of course, the vanilla GTA IV experience. Read the rest of this entry »
