Have you been saying things like, "…uh…whatever happened to that Agency game?" You probably have.

Officially unveiled at the D.I.C.E. event all the way back in 2007 with the project codename of "Vista," and then announced as The Agency for the PlayStation 3 and PC a few months later, this spy-themed MMO is all about multiplayer espionage. But when might it finally arrive? Well, according to a recent Kotaku interview with Sony Online Entertainment CEO John Smedley, the game will be ready to go during the second half of 2011. Smedley says we shouldn't worry about the delays, noting that their last project – DC Universe Online – was also pushed back and actually benefited from the extra time. In The Agency , players will work for one of two main factions; both sides want to end up having control over the world, and that's quite the quest. Just about everything the spy fan could want should be here, including assassinations, intrigue, sabotage, undercover stuff, betrayal, etc.

It remains the one MMO we might really want to try; how about you? The potential is just through the roof, isn't it?
