Zipper Interactive's, MAG (PS3), Promises 256 Players Online ! WOW Amazing !


While a Lot of People are Convinced that Resistance 2's 60-Player Online Battles will be Phenomenal, that Feat will Soon be Overshadowed by a more Elaborate Effort in Online Action.


Zipper Interactive, Best Known for Their Work on the SOCOM Series, Revealed a New Project Codenamed, MAG, ((M)assive (A)ction (G)ame) for the PlayStation 3 which will Have the Capacity to Host 256 Players All at the Same Time.


The Developers Said that Their upcoming Game will Have 256 Humans Divided into Teams of 8 (that's 32 Teams) Fighting Free-for-All (FFA) ****in 1 Giant Map. That certainly Sounds Fun, but we Know you're Wondering How Long you'll Have to Wait to Set up Matches.


That Hasn't been Answered Yet, but we Hope the Devs do in Time. Jack Tretton Has Gone Out of his Way to Remind People that They're Accomplishing All this in the PS3's Sophomore Year. What more Could be in the Pipeline as we Go Along ? We'll See.

what do you think about this? hmm..,

regarding the lag issue that will presume

Well come back to the present. There literally has not been any new info for months. Supposedly there will be minimal lag because they are using the Gods of dedicated servers. I would be more concerned if they charge monthly to pay for service and maintenance. Hopefully they will pay for maintenance with ingame ads.

Comparing PS3 exclusives from the launch period to exclusives now is like comparing a Mazda Miata to a Ferrari.

These PS3 exclusives nowadays are awesome.

I have high hopes and high expectations for this game. In fact, my expectations and hopes are so high that I will consider buying MAG instead of Modern Warfare 2 if the reviews are good. If they have an open beta, even better! The Resistance 2 beta sold me on that game...

I hope this game isn't straight up deathmatch though...I would like to see a Killzone 2 style of classes and alternating objectives.

Such threads take up server storage space capacity from our beloved GameSpot and i simply can't take it when people make such horrible threads when there are children starving in nearly every part of the world.

It sounds impressive, but so does Obama's stimulus plan. ;)

I dont mean to be too critical, but it is going to be hard to imagine 256 players in one game at once...

I'm just glad the didn't call it "Futuristic Action Game." That would have been.... Disasterous. Anyway, I'm very excited about this game and can't wait to play it, but I find it hard to fathom 256 players being on at the same time. As long as COD4 (not to mention MW2) and KZ2 are still holding interest there just won't be enough people interested all at once. I hope I'm wrong. I hope is cool enough that people will forget about those games all together and join the rest of us for an all out war. If it works out as Zipper plans it to then this game will be pretty epic...

im pretty sure they will have the lag issue under control. 256 people online is there main focus point so I think the issue will be resolved.

oh yeah and just so everyone knows they're not 8 player teams, they're 8 player squads. There's 2 teams with 16 squads on each team. if you're gonna bring up year old news, then you might as well get your facts right ;)
