Sony Online Entertainment - The Agency Preview @ GameSpy

GameSpy previews The Agency, SOE's upcoming spy-themed MMO.

The Agency is one of those ideas that seems painfully obvious in retrospect. The MMO genre is replete with overwrought fantasy universes filled with glowing swords and entirely too many elves. Surely there must be other genres out there that provide plenty of action without resorting to pixies, orcs and wood nymphs? Enter Sony Online Entertainment (no stranger to the fantasy genre itself with the EverQuest games and the recently-released Vanguard) and a spy-themed MMO for the PC and PS3. At a recent Sony Online Entertainment event, the development team presented a detail-light but very intriguing glimpse into the clandestine world of The Agency.
