    MAG in stores tomorrow! Are you excited- or underwhelmed?

    posted @ 1/25/2010 08:03:00 PM by Vichus Smith


    A few weeks ago, all PS3 owners were treated to the wide open beta for MAG, the massive action game which allows for 256 players to battle it out across one of three different factions, all at one time.

    Modern Warfare 2, as you read this, is still being played heavily and often. Will MAG be the big deal when it comes to PlayStation, or is Modern Warfare 2 the superior experience? I have not played Modern Warfare 2, but I have played MAG. I was not bowled over, but it was lots of fun. Having scores of players all playing towards one goal is exciting, but PS3 users tend not to have as many headsets as Xbox Players do, killing the ability to strategize for victory.

    So I will get a copy of MAG, whether it's in rental or retail form. I hope to see some of you there, and I hope you join me as part of MAG's best team!
