The Agency actually does sound like it would appeal very strongly on the MGS4 levels. It sounds appealing to the hardcore gamers.
Every console needs a solid line up of sports titles. If they weren't making any then that would cost them a massive chunk of their audience. They aren't system sellers individually. If Sony didn't have any that would cost them about 60% of their console sales.
I too am a little bit annoyed that Sony people keep on listing downloadable content in their game lists. No matter how good they are, they will never be system sellers. That just won't happen. As a whole, if the PSN games didn't exist that would cost them, or if they didn't churn games out very fast that would also cost them.
