I would say MAG.

MW2 will make you more mad as opposed to having fun.

imho all mag, cod, mw, bf:bc are flavor of the months (ok, maybe not month but a bit longer), if one does really enjoy gaming and does like change, they are all good games which will keep you occupied for a good amount of time... as to their comparison, i do not think that anyone can say that they are the same except the fact that they are all fps titles... cod or mw series (i know they are the same but are not) is a good frantic arcade style fps, which will keep you occupied as long as you memorize the maps, then it is all the same... i have played the first bf: bc for a good amount of time and i can say i was hooked on it more because of the humongous maps and the ability to create different tactics and strategies depending on both your and opposing team and the addition of vehicles (which is a must for such big maps)... due to these fact i do feel that it has a longevity that will last you for more... oh and i forgot that anything excepth the ground is destructible, so no more camping for forever behind walls... :) i have played the mag beta only for a very short period of time and i did not have a good experience due to lag (which was understandable for my geographical location, turkey to be exact) but i am looking forward to the reviews...

i wouldn't get either of them i would get battlefield2 when it releases. i was in the mag beta twice walked away only feeling so/so. i bought codmw2 because i loved all the other cod. but was extremly dissapointed most atrocious spawn points. a new glitch every other day and single player (while great) over in a flash. i have a personal feeling that mag is gonna have major online issues after release. last months beta was buggy and crashing and only 1month 2 release. seems like mag could use another3 months of developement time. so we dont have another launch like socoms launch.

i choose MAG, cause MW2 is just a broken online with its stupid killstreaks and new dumb perks, i liked MW1 a lot better, and i like that 256 player battles in MAG cause they got very crazy at times when i played the beta, so i choose MAG, just gotta get used to having the crouch button be triangle

I would go with MAG. MW2 gameplay just doesn't do it for me.

I would wait for BFBC2 but if you need one now, get MW2.

MW2 has great online. So I would say Modern Warfare 2. Although little ten year olds will scream at you if you have the headset...

MW2. MAG was crap to me and doesn't seem anything new to me. Looks like Warhawk 2 to me.

MAG all the way. The campaign in MW2 sucks and the online play has no teamwork whatsoever. The stupid killstreak rewards ruin the experience and just give more power to the players who are already good instead of helping out players who aren't doing well to make the round more intense. MW2 online has a lot of flaws.

go get MW2.

First, if you are good at fps, MW2 is a better game than MAG. what the heck you have to obey your noob squad or company leader's instructions. In MW2, you are the boss as long as you are good. In MAG, you gotta become company leader to bethe boss. In MAG,everyone is anordinary soldier except leaders. Only squad leader has authority to call a artillery strike.

Second thing you should consider is popularity. MW2 have a lot more players than any other PS3 games, and it has 400,000 players online regularly. MAG? I doubt it would still have 10,000 players online by summer. Without people, 256p islame. In beta, it takes a while to get in a 256p game, and I could have2 matches in MW2 with that waitting time.

Teamwork: If you play with friends, then both games provide good teamwork experience. However, if you like to play alone, then MW2 is a much better game. MAG eventually going to become clan war, and if you dont belong to any clans, you are going to get owned.

Both great games but I would give it to MAG. It is a amazing game which no other console shooters offer.

Yeah, pissed me off hard out. MAG was fun even when my K/D ratio was like .71ish XD. Then in the january beta i made it go up to 1.2ish :D Its really really good if you know how to play and what play style suits you, like im more of a field support rapid action guy. DAMMIT MAGS NOT OUT IN NZ UNTIL FEB!! AND THEN I WONT HAVE MONEY FOR IT EITHER!!

MW2 got old fast compared to CoD4. Get M.A.G if you're looking for a solid and unique online game.
