Rockstar Games on osoittautunut varsin hyväksi pitämään firman sisäiset asiat omana tietonaan. Ajoittain jotain vuotaa, mutta muuten ollaan hyvin hiljaa. Ja ilmeisesti tällä linjalla on tarkoitus jatkaa vastakin.
Entinen Grand Theft Auto -kehittäjä Obbe Vermeij työskenteli Rockstarilla vuoteen 2009 saakka. Heppu on nyt kertonut saaneensa käskyn poistaa bloginsa, jossa käsiteltiin Rockstarin kuopattuja peliprojekteja.
"I got an email from Rockstar North. Apparently some of the OGs there are upset by my blog. I genuinely didn't think anyone would mind me talking about 20-year-old games but I was wrong. Something about ruining the Rockstar mystique or something. Anyway, this blog isn't important enough to me to piss off my former colleagues in Edinburgh so I'm winding it down. I'll maybe just leave a few articles with anecdotes that don't affect anyone but me."
Vermeij puhui mittavasti muun muassa kuopatusta pelistä Agent, jonka oli tarkoitus sijoittua 1970-luvulle.
"The game was to be set in the 70s, be more linear than GTA with a number of locations. There was a French Mediterranean city, A Swiss ski resort, Cairo and at the end there would be a big shootout with lasers in space."
