Senior staff leave 'The Agency' to start new studio; SOE claims game unaffected
The Agency has lost some top agents as several members of Sony Online Entertainment's Seattle studio have left to form Detonator Games. The losses include art director Corey Dangel, studio director Matt Wilson and producer John Smith -- the latter two were founding members of the development house.
Eurogamer reports the departures have ignited rumors that the The Agency will experience a reboot or overhaul -- which wouldn't be the first time the production team has had to go on the defensive. SOE denies that there's any reboot going on and notes that company is "looking forward to showing you new content in the future." Let's see if the game makes its 2010 release.

I come from the Net.
Through systems, peoples and cities
To this place:
Mainframe
My format: Guardian
To mend and defend
To defend my new-found friends
Their hopes and dreams
To defend them from their enemies
They say The User lives outside the Net
And inputs games for pleasure.
No one knows for sure, but I intend to find out!
REBOOT!

Seems to me like now that they have learnt the tricks of the trade from the masters that are Sony they wanna piss off and betray Sony. PS3 ownes should be use to being let down. Sony know what there doing and this wil not affected anything

Not to encourage you, but...
If you're going to write a big (stupid) blurb and not simply "First!", you probably won't be first.

I hope this game comes out at all, never mind 2010. I'm really looking forward to it.
