Kinda curious. I might be getting a PS3 do in part to the PS3's proven ability to handle above 30 players online for good FPS's. [[R2]]

Since I am a large-battle fan, after I used to play large 150+ battles on the PC. So, saying that, how many of you people will be getting MAG? If not, why?

I won't be getting it. The more gameplay I see, the less intrested I am in the game. I think MAG is going to be just another average shooter. I think the ONLY reason people are hyped for it is the 256 player battles. Yeah that might sound fun and great to some, but I'm not buying into it. Gameplay looks average, and that's what I think the entire game will be overall - Average. I would almost guarantee that this game wouldn't be getting any hype at all if it weren't for the insane amount of players that can play in a single match. I recommend that people don't get there hopes up too high for the game, or expect too much, because I think it'll end up disappointing. Just what I think though...

Meh...shall never trust your judgement when you said Infamous would be boring and repetitive... And i don't know at all if i will get this. I need to see some more actual gameplay instead of focusing on all the features like most vids have so far...hopefully it will turn out pretty good but right now i have no opinion on it

I don't really have too much of a solid opinion on it right now, but suffice to say, I wasn't impressed with what they showed during E3.

"Meh...shall never trust your judgement when you said Infamous would be bad boring and repetitive..." When did I say that about inFamous? lol you're making up stuff now. I've never said inFamous was a bad game. In a recent thread, I said it got boring quickly and was pretty repetitive, but i've never said it was a bad game.

Lol i mean before the game came out xD before the good reviews everything you judged about the game was pretty similar to this...saying it wouldn't be good and such.

You're still not right. I never said inFamous would be bad before it came out. Please, tell me how you managed to dream that up? I can recall saying in some inFamous vs Prototype threads back before both were out, that both would be good games, and I then went on to say that I thought Prototype would be the better, more fun game to play. Never did I say inFamous (or Prototype for that matter) would be a bad game.

Sorry i didn't know exactly what you said so i just used bad to try getting a general feeling of it since i remembered it being comments of repetitiveness and such but not specifics...I just cannot understand the "i can almost guarantee" comments you make since if it were not for the huge amount of people per match then it would be something else to hype the game about. The socom devs in general make really great games and they just happened to focus on one thing this time around o.o

btw i'd really appreciate if you either edited, or deleted your 1st message in this thread, since, you know, I never even said what you're claiming i said about inFamous. Thanks.

the idea that attracted me the most was PMC rankings. what's shying me away though is the numbers. not that i think they can't pull it off but thinking of this game in terms of lifespan later down the road getting 256 people will be a chore in and of itself. look at KZ2. it started off with about 15+ rooms of 32 full. now it can barely fill 3 rooms. also the lowest possible player count is 64 and going that route leaves certain game types unavailable to you. if anything i'll wait 3 months after release to see if the game is still going strong. if it's fallen off by then at least i'll have MW2.

I'm interested in MAG, but I'll have to actually see how it turns out before I get it. :)

I'm not simply because I don't care for online play, so MAG would obviously be pointless for me.

I'm definately not. At one time I was considering it, but after seeing some gameplay, I don't like it. Much more important games for me to be getting ;)

Same here. Its actually peeked my interest more than any shooter out or comming out. The game really depends soley on how many people are willing to try it, and its risky given MW2 is its competition. Its also a lot to handle for a server. I'm watching it like a hawk and I'm pretty confident i'll buy it, but I will rent it first. I'm definatley going to be watching every trailer and every video that comes out.

I might get it, hopefully they make a really good demo like warhawk.... I used to love that game, now im hating it cause i lost my skills at it, havent played it ages XD....

I wanna see how it reviews really... Some people are right though its mainly just getting really hyped for its 256 player battles....
Which looks AWESOME!!

By the way, anyone know anything about a release date?? I cant member if they gave a estimate at e3

Mag looks extremely good for a 256 player game...Graphics are (not as good as killzone2 duh) but decent. Kind of reminds of the ps3's version of Halo turned insane in a good beyond awesome way...definitely buying it...lag or no lag (my COD4 lags alot)

Defo getting it unless it gets really bad reviews. The demo showed its very tactical with you having to capture points and these points becoming new bases. It looks amazing like killzone 2 and a breath of fresh air in the fps genre.

Should be a groundbreaker hopefully!

i want a lot of games this year but i can't buy them all so i have to choose the best
