Agent

…and with Agent we are making what we believe will be the ultimate action game.

Thats according to Sam Houser of Rockstar Games as Agent was announced on Tuesday night as the top secret Rockstar PS3 exclusive was announced. The game, which was basically announced through a exclusivity deal at E3 2007 from Jack Tretton in the old version of GameTrailers TV known as GameHead, was announced at the Sony conference on Tuesday, to be developed by Rockstar Edinburgh.

The game takes place in the late 70′s during the final stretch of the Cold War, involving assassins and political assassinations, counter-inteligence, spying, secret agents, whatever them kids were doing back in the old day during the cold one.

Find the PR after the jump. It should be out next year.
