MAG will be the greatest game of all time (and it's a PS3 exclusive!)

How do they split up the teams? I know Resistance 2 was supposed to have like massive huge battles, but the reviews all said that the game basically separates groups so that you're always in smaller skirmishes so that it's playable and enjoyable. 256 multiplayer that always keeps things in 16-32 player groups seems like a waste when you can buy other FPS with great 16-32 multiplayer that also have a robust single player campaign as well.Senor_Kami

I wish it was third person, I'm not really feeling the good vibes yet. But I'm hopefull!

Yes, yes, lets hype this for years as the phenom game to beat ummmm ......... then when finally launched after all the hype ......... KZ2 anyone.

Not anywhere close to the "best game ever" mark...

MAG just doesn't do anything for me...

I still hold Socom 1 and 2 as the best console online multiplayer games ever...So it would not be hard for me to believe that Zipper can do it again. From the latest vids I've seen with gameplay footage in limited spurts, the game looks to be coming along very nicely.

And damn, 256 players.....How awesome does that sound.....And as awesome as it sounds, I believe the sound of it won't be a patch on actually booting it up and playing it.

Imagine seing teams of 50-60 or even 100 people storming you at a capture point or something similar. If done right, this game could give you that sh1t yourself feeling, and lets get it on Rambo feeling all at the same time.

This game is looking the goods, killer app, and a game that people will buy PS3's for.

What really intrigues me is the persistent nature of the faction wars. I've not really seen anything like that outside of an mmorpg. The fact that winning certain points or parts of the map will earn your faction benefits sounds really interesting and gives players at least a limited sense of working towards something. I can see this game having a lot of fans.

i didnt no about the winning parts of the map gives benefits. i like how they give perks for when you're near your squad leader though so people will actually roll around with their squad and how you cant go up in the chain of command until you've proven yourself. sounds like strategy will play a big roll in winning instead of everyone just ramboing around.

Wait...

I though Uncharted 2 and Killzone 2 and Lair and Resistance 2 and Haze were/are the best game of all time?

Generic shooter is generic.

It's a big scale , but you won't realise it while playing. It's about your squad and your objectives. Glad to hear they liked it though.
