It doesn't have to be shown at all. It's dead.

Why are people always asking for Agent? Did they mention it had a good premise or something? All I've seen is a logo...
Exactly, just a logo after 7 years. It doesn't exist anymore.
I don't think Sony would allow a PlayStation exclusive from Rockstar to be simply put aside, unless it was cancelled.
I can confirm that aGENT (it's last known internal name) has been shelved for YEARS now and hasn't been worked on by any Rockstar studio, they'd have had to have picked it up again within the past year and been working like crazy to be able to show or talk about it this E3 but with all the internal conflict going on and other projects that are much more of a priority, I doubt aGENT will be making a showing any time soon.

Man, you guys are still on Agent? Probably best to let that one go...

It was originally for PS2 and Xbox, supposedly set in Egypt according to R* employee resumes, and then moved to being PS3 exclusive. I think maybe when Jack Tretton couldn't confirm it as a PS3 exclusive that was because it got moved to PS4 at some point. But if they didn't can it from PS2 to PS3, and it's still on the R* website, I believe it's still alive.
You're only setting yourself up for disappointment then. It's gone.
No sane HW manufacturer can afford a R* exclusive game anymore. Come onnn Nintendo! lmao
Red Dead 2 already exists, as much as people tend to forget or try and force it, Rockstar themselves consider Redemption to be the SECOND game in the series with Revolver as the first. The games internal files even reference it as RDR2.

Please let Horizon be 2016, please let Horizon be 2016, please let Horizon be 2016. Honestly, everything else at the conference would be gravy.
Rockstar still owes Sony for the L.A. Moore debacle.

They wouldn't have to be able to in this situation.

100% wrong. It probably isn't, but to say there's no chance is retarded.
I worked with an outreach of their web team from 2007 - 2015, we had a few contacts within Rockstar and would share information, what we were allowed to pass on or spread amongst websites and fansites and such, I can verify if needs be. Either way I do think it's funny the way people bring up aGENT or other rockstar titles with the stories I heard from the other side.

This year won't have nearly as many big surprises, but I'm actually quite looking forward to just seeing more fleshed out footage of announced games.
- Horizon Zero Dawn
- The Last Guardian
- Dreams
As well as reveals from Sony Santa Monica, Bend Studio, and a possible reveal of Crash.
All in all, I think it could be a very solid show with perhaps Sony's strongest lineup for 2016/2017....but nothing will top the megatons of last E3.

It's just feel weird to see people being hyped about the game they know nothing about. Granted, it's R* we are talking about. But judging by the screenshots, the game doesn't look so hot.

Why? I think a line-up like that would go down a treat for the most part.

"The game is set during the Cold War and will take players into "the world of counter-intelligence, espionage and political assassinations", according to a Rockstar press release. Rockstar has yet to reveal any details regarding the setting for the title other than the fact that it will be set in the late 1970s."

When it's 2017 and there's still no Horizon: Zero Dawn, I'll say hello again.

Sounds like it would have been The Americans The Game, but a few years earlier, which could have been amazing...

If they announce that PS4 can now play PS3 (and prior) games via disc, that would be a potential 2015 E3 beater for me. It won't happen though, considering how much they've invested in Gaikai and PS Now. But if it did, oh man!

Yeah doesn't Rockstar owe Sony a game? Or is that deal long over.
Nobody knows. Considering GTAV success, I don't think R* would make an exclusive game unless Sony pays a lot of money.

Wouldn't Sony have already paid money (AKA Agent) for a game? I also don't know how business deals work lol.

We haven't had game leaks in a while so not even sure what to expect. All I want is Horizon, Gran Tourismo and TLG.
Oh and if you could bring back the agent as a ps4 and PC title that would be great.

All we have are those Tretton GT interviews from years ago where he implied they owed them for letting GTA4 go multi-platform when they were contractually obligated to release it as a PS3 exclusive.
