During last night's DICE 2007 keynote speech, Sony Digital Pictures President Yair Landau revealed a yet-unannounced Sony Online title, codenamed Vista, which is a snub at Microsoft, since the game was recently delayed. Taking elements from various movies such as James Bond and Bourne Identity, Vista is spy/action game featuring cooperative, team-oriented objectives and PVP, showing lots of Bond-esque gadgetry, including a tricked-out BMW-like car, where agents were battling it out with a slew of street thugs. No further details were given, but now that the cat is out of the bag, more info should follow shortly.
