MAG box art.

MAG is one of the biggest exclusive games on the Playstation 3 in 2010. Despite the released date quickly approaching, the ambitious first-person shooter hasn’t been reviewed by the media yet. Jeff Rubenstein, the Social Media Manager of SCEA, explain why this is the case in the comments section of the Playstation.Blog:

Reviews can’t be written until the game is actually out. I mean, you can’t pass pre-release judgment on a game whose major, industry-leading feature (256 players in a single battle) can’t be tested until release day.

MAG will be released in North America on January 26th.

makes sence

thay makes a lot of sense, playing mag with less than 10 players will be boring

the epicness of this game is yet to be seen.

Exactly what I said in that other thread...

I concur. It was hard finding people on a 32 vs. 32 battle

That actually makes tons of sense. Why don't other games do this? How do you review any FPS when 90% of the experience is online.

Epicness has been seen...

then again, it was made by sony so no one can really cry wolf...

the review will probably end up like this though:


77 IGN

What can be a really exciting team game experience is marred by having to play with uncooperative idiots, monotonous landscapes, long wait times to get into the action, and some serious lack of definitive purpose.

(from planetside metacritic)

Because its not hard to get 16-32 players
