Agent is "about espionage, set in the 1970s"

Agent, the PS3 "exclusive" Take-Two announced in Sony's press conference at E3, is set in the 70s, Take-Two boss Ben Feder's told EG.

"It's a completely different storyline, there is completely different character development," the exec said of the title's similarities to GTA.

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

Feder refused to flesh out what the firm meant by the term "exclusive" in regards to Agent.

"These are all relationship matters and contractual matters," he said. "When we talk about our relationships and our exclusivity for PS3 and Agent, for example, we don't disclose anything beyond what we've already said.

"But we think it's important for us to be with Sony, and it's important for Sony, I think, to be with us. The game promises to be one of the best games available because of who's developing it, and because of the subject matter."
