Agent To Push The PS3 Cell Processor To A New Level

Published: 16 June 2009 10:01 PM CDT

Back in 2005 Rockstar Games Sam Houser was very excited about working on the Playstation 3 and, in order to get the most out of the system you have to only focus on that system meaning no multi-platform development.

 

SAM HOUSER QUOTES

 

 

“One of the problems with the 360, and it affects games like Grand Theft Auto if you think about how much content we put in the actual machine, is the fact that they don’t have a significantly larger storage medium than the previous systems. It’s a slightly bigger DVD disc.

 

“I think that the 360 is going to have to get ’round this issue we’re talking about. I can think of various ways they can do it. Hopefully, they’re going to adopt one of those in the next year or so, because it’s going to become more of an issue. If we’re filling up the disc right now, where are we going? It’s not like our games are going to get any smaller. I think that issue’s on the table with a bunch of games right now. I’m sure they’ll come through with an intelligent solution.”

 

Rockstar wants to make the best game possible and they feel Playstation 3 exclusive development is the way too go. Sony is actually working close with Rockstar on this Agent project to push the Cell processor to new levels. This game will be pushing some of the latest technology and, right now in development the game is expecting to exceed this level of detail as seen in this early Getaway 3 Screenshot.

Agent isn’t your typical open world game, similar to the goals of the canceled Eight Days and The Getaway. Agent should be able to render two thousand people on screen at once and feature a google map type of function for gameplay purposes. This type of achievement is rumored to require the use of 7 SPE’s for open world, physics, AI, and Graphics before the RSX is even touched. This method if done correctly will seamlessly bridge the gap between CGI and Real-time In game action.

 

The developers over at Rockstar are being very tight lipped about this title but from the little bit that was talked about during E3’09 on the show floor amongst a few industry insiders, this game is going to be what GTA4 should’ve been thanks to the triple threat of the Playstation 3 which is

 

1. Hard Drive In Every System

2. Blu-Ray Storage

3. The Cell Processor

"Agent bus tai kas turejo buti GTA IV is tikruju" tai skamba gan gerai

na jei teisingai supratau tai Agent nebus atviro pasaulio kaip kad GTA.ir prie ko sitas Getaway 3 treileris? juk sitas zaidimas nutrauktas. ir apskritai abejoju ar ps3 pajegus tokio lygio realtime grafikai kaip kad cia rodoma,juk pirmieji killzone 2 ir motostorm treileriai tipo ir demonstravo in game vaizdus,bet kai pasirode zaidimai grafika tokia nebebuvo. na bet vistiek idomu ka cia rockstar padarys

cia sake kad agent nebus tipinis open world zaidimas,bet bus panasus kaip atsaukti porjektai 8 days ir getaway,vienu metu renderins 2 000 zmoniu ir naudos kazkoki google map funkcija zaidimo gamepleijuj,o getaway cia prie to kad visa tai bus galima matyt agent zaidime. na Rockstar gana solidus zmones ir ju zaidimai solidus tikrai,kad ir kokio zanro butu,galbut tai bus tikrai naujas zingsnis,juk ps3 galimybiu dar tikrai niekas neisnaudojo,o Rockstarai jau kuria sony konsolem tikrai senai

 

Kažkaip nežinojau ko tikėtis iš Agent (žinojau, kad tikėtis galima tik kažko daug, visgi Rockstar). Likau sudomintas. Laukiam daugiau detalių.

 

[offtopic]Kažkaip šita info man sukėlė pasitenkinimą, kad pasirinkau PS3, o ne x360 (nebučiau flashinęs x360).

Kai pirkau masčiau taip: šiai dienai pagal žaidimus x360 = PS3. Man labiau lipo PS3 exclusivai (~~ Resistence 1&2 + Killzone2 + Uncharted vs Gear of War 1 & 2 + MassEffect + Halo 3) ir be to PS3 laukia geresni laikai - dar neišnaudotas blue-ray diskas (galimybė prikraut DAUG contento), dar nepasiektos cell technologijos galimybės (o Sony pasirūpins, kad būtų su laiku išnaudotos).

Dabar kai pamatau info apie tokius PS3 only žaidimus kaip God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Agent, Gran Turismo 5 ir kt. + tiek geru multiplatforminių žaidmų.. taip noriu aš jų!!! Tik bėda kad per brangu bus visus žaist reikės po biški pirkinėtis. Bet aišku, kad jau dabar anonsuotų žaidimų man užtektų ilgam.[/offtopic]

tas youtubes video cia ne is agent zaidimo,o is atsauktu ankstensiu rockstar darbu,tiesiog jie nori parodyt ko laukti is zaidimo
