Lol MAG is not even out yet and there is already a MAG killer. Well, if anyone is capable of making this a good game it's Epic. I'm interested to see how both games play out.

MAG (Massive Action Game), the PS3 exclusive promising amazing 256-player online battles, isn't on store shelves yet, but that hasn't stopped Microsoft from convincing Epic Games, the powerhouse developer behind the best-selling Gears of War franchise, to try to top it. And top it they may.

Gargantuan Hazard Battle is real. It's in the works, will use the latest iteration of the Unreal engine, and supports a whopping 300 players (which is 44 more than MAG) for online battles that will play out "like an action movie" according to Epic veep Mark Rein. What that means exactly we can't say since the title is still relatively early in development, but when pressed Rein took a shot across Sony's bow by remarking, "After spending some time with GHB, you'll forget all about MAG." Strong words, but Epic has been known to deliver.

More on this title as it becomes available.

It has to be a joke XD

Though the name is completely bogus and the source questionable I wouldn't be surprised if MS was creating a 300 player fps to compete with mag since it does have the potential to bring gamers over to the ps3 (assuming Zipper can actually pull off a 256 player match without lag). Plus remember Boku/Kodu, MS'es supposed answer to lbp?

The stage presentation had 256 players and didn't lag. Furthermore theres been some previews where they've also said it didn't lag.

If anyone is actually convincing themselves this is real then I feel sorry for you...

The name of the game and the source alone allude to the game being completely BS, its obvious.

I don't think this is true...they would have announced it at E3 if it was.

@ the people complaining about the 360 coppying the PS3--grow up...its what companies do.

So far MS has copied almost nothing from Sony...If anything Sony is copying M$....

Explain? I think it's about even...

All I can remember is MS copying Singstar, the eye-toy to some extent and basically making a 'counter' game to every fresh new PS3 title announced.

Sony has copied MS mainly trying to get their PSN up to XBL standards.

As some one pointed out for you Singing based games were not invented by sony...

The Eye toy?....How? By Making a Webcam for the Xbox 360? I don't think so..And Natal and the Eyetoy are not the same or similar...

I love to see you make a list of these games MS has made to counter these Fresh new PS3 tittles....Please do....

And Yes PSN is a Xbox Live Knock off....Putting HDD in Consoles is another thing that Sony copied....

@Staude

But they did it in like a controlled environment, I not sure things will go as smoothly if thousands of people logged in to play the game at the same time.
