I'm not sure what all the buzz about MAG is. I remember playing Tribes 1 (modded servers of course) with 128 vs 128, or Tribes 2 with 256 vs 256. So this whole large-scale battle thing isn't anything new. Or Planetside, which was pretty cool, but the cool part was from the sci-fi based technology and the capture and hold based persistent game play at a large scale.
I'm actually getting a PS3 soon (Very cheap, 100-150$ barely used, older model though) and this game isn't even closely on my list yet.
