Three Questions with... Matt Wilson, Director of Development, The Agency
We are pleased to present this guest Fan Faire review of The Agency, by Qwash.
At Fan Faire 2007, Sony Online Entertainment announced the start of a new project dubbed The Agency(TM) that would allow people to live the life of an elite agent in an online persistent world. In 2008, Fan Faire attendees were treated to another look at this new game that will be available for both the PC and the PLAYSTATION®3. The design team was there to answer questions about their game to those curious enough to step up to their booth, but the real treat was watching the "Sneak Peek" and picking the developers minds at their panel. The only question you have to ask yourself is, are you a UNITE or ParaGON agent?
In 2007, SOE announced the beginning development of a new game entitled "The Agency". In 2008, the developers of the game hosted a forum panel giving Fan Faire attendees the chance to see a sneak peek of the game in its current form.
If you like drama, intrigue, travel, fashion, and really cool toys, then The Agency is a title you should be watching for.
As I’ve said before, think James Bond meets Posh Spice, and you’ve got an idea of just what kind of eye candy is awaiting you in this FPS-styled MMO that is currently in development at Sony Online Entertainment. And, although they were not officially presenting at GDC in San Francisco, I did have an opportunity to sit down with a couple of the G.I.R.L. gals from the development team.
(Yes, that was a shameless plug for G.I.R.L. which, incidentally, had a great party while at GDC and announced a partnership with the Art Institute to provide a scholarship to women interested in getting into the game development industry. (Go, G.I.R.L.s!)
