- XeroKool, on 07/15/2008, -3/+85"Massive Action Game" has got to be the best name for a video game thus far ...
- warholsbluecat, on 07/16/2008, -3/+77Finally, my dream.
All I want is one map. No trees. No rivers. No holes. No sniper rifles, just close range weapons. An open area with a few small hills on each end.
128 people one one end. 128 people on the other.
It's time for ***** Braveheart - LordoftheFly, on 07/15/2008, -7/+70Great. Because the only thing greater than 15 other players talking ***** is 255.
- pewpewarrows, on 07/15/2008, -10/+69I'll be more excited when I see in-game footage instead of the pre-rendered stuff they spewed out today. All-in-all though, sounds like a great idea. Let's see if they can pull it off.
- 3amboo, on 07/16/2008, -1/+34there better be respawn... i'm not waiting for all 256 players to die.
- superkendall, on 07/16/2008, -0/+30I thought that sounded silly. Right until the end. Then you turned on the awesome switch somehow, because I saw the vision.
Bring it on! - MasterJoefus, on 07/15/2008, -10/+38This is what all of us have been waiting for. The Messiah of Massively Multiplayer Online games!!
- johnmalc, on 07/16/2008, -9/+37Here's the difference: XBL is set-up like a P2P network, where Microsoft is charging you to use your own bandwidth. PSN is all run on banks of dedicated servers, and is pretty much lagless (it's why we all play CoD4 on PS3, rather than my roomate's 360).
It's also why PSN costs so much mor... oooh, too soon? - dunezone, on 07/15/2008, -2/+29They would be smart to only allow the 8 man squad to talk to each other but the commander of that squad can hear the other commanders also. That way the communication is split down and only certain people can hear certain people. But even this would be a cluster *****.
- matthew2398, on 07/15/2008, -9/+32great concept awful name
- sketcher67, on 07/15/2008, -18/+40Time to get a PS3
- Wildthing, on 07/16/2008, -1/+23Let's hope it doesn't take after "Epic Movie", "Date Movie", or "Superhero Movie". I can see it now, their next is going to be "Massive Action Movie"
- inactive, on 07/16/2008, -4/+26Resistence 2, God of War 3, ratchet and clank: quest for booty, bioshock, Siren, Socom, DC universse MMO, resident evil 5, MAG was totally awesome. Little big planet me made laugh because it had a great visual aid presentation. Sony conference was non stop Excellent show.
- SSCrow, on 07/16/2008, -8/+30People talk ***** everywhere. Not just on the xbox.
- bigbadgoat, on 07/15/2008, -10/+31CollapseControl, are you incapable of reading?
The story VERY CLEARLY has PS3 in the title.
What the ***** are you doing posting here. If your xbox 360 is really that ***** great, go play that every time you feel the impulse to spew your ***** and lies to people who don't give a fat flying ***** about what you have to say.
Ask yourself, how many of your comments actually have a positive digg count?
I bet it's less than 5%. - ZenMojo, on 07/16/2008, -1/+20And a kilt-lifting taunt mapped to the Six Axis.
- inactive, on 07/16/2008, -3/+21Great 256 players all spamming music,and calling each other fag.
- billjimbob, on 07/15/2008, -6/+24MAG definitely looks cool, but anyone think it will release before 2010? 2011?
- santasing, on 07/15/2008, -2/+19Its all in the implementation. I personnaly don't want it to be run and gun. but if it is tactical at all like SOCOM or AA, this is going to be one hell of a game.
- 3amboo, on 07/16/2008, -0/+17Time to buy an HDTV too
- Wildthing, on 07/16/2008, -2/+19Actually my use of "their" is correct. http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/their.html
- spacebuddy, on 07/16/2008, -0/+15If they pull this off, it will be AMAZING.
All I need is GOD OF WAR III and Spore :) - santasing, on 07/16/2008, -0/+15LOL....that would be awesome.
- dysonlu, on 07/16/2008, -0/+15That's why it's called "placehold title".
- TitanX7, on 07/15/2008, -4/+18And people mocked me for playing SOCOM.
- TheAmbushAhead, on 07/15/2008, -0/+14Well Zipper is making it and they made SOCOM...
- LordoftheLoo, on 07/16/2008, -0/+14Time to lose your virginity
- inactive, on 07/16/2008, -6/+19TWO HUNDRED ***** FIFTY SIX PLAYERS!!!!
- cknyan, on 07/16/2008, -1/+12There would still be campers.
- peticsu, on 07/16/2008, -9/+20more like LLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGG
- Acglaphotis, on 07/16/2008, -0/+11No server is lagless. Digg is living proof.
- superkendall, on 07/16/2008, -0/+11Hey now, the PS3 also had Little Big Planet as a huge part of the presentation - and a big Ratchet & Clank title. And even God Of War III, which is not at all a shooter.
- billjimbob, on 07/16/2008, -2/+12Killzone 2's trailer was shown in 2005, but isn't going to come out until 2009. Let's hope MAG doesn't suffer the same fate, or we won't be seeing it until 2012.
It does look sweet, though. - AlxRymnd914, on 07/16/2008, -0/+10DO. WANT.
- inactive, on 07/16/2008, -1/+10I can deal with all of that. Where I run into problems is the guy who keeps the mic open with his wheezing.
Also, swearing at your kids and yelling at them to go get you a beer is not at all cool. - AlxRymnd914, on 07/16/2008, -3/+12Sony uses dedicated servers. So it only depends on your connection to the server instead of everyone's connection to another person's console ala Halo3.
- AlxRymnd914, on 07/16/2008, -0/+9"future Warhawk expansions" - would you rather them not support their games?
- johnmalc, on 07/15/2008, -2/+10Epic retort! This ***** looks friggin' sweet.
Now lets wait for the whining... - McShr3dd3r, on 07/16/2008, -0/+7Head asplodes
- noobifiggah, on 07/16/2008, -0/+7200 ***** 56 players? Sounds like gang-rape to me...
- dsmx, on 07/16/2008, -0/+7What happens if all 256 people fire a rocket at the same time at the same location in that game?
- bittertea, on 07/16/2008, -0/+7I think the game is going to be kickass... just think... they said that each squad is consist of 8 players... so 16 squads per team. From what they've shown in the beginning of the trailer, squad members will be able to communicate within the group. The captain of each squads are given abilities to communicate with each other, relaying any intel between themselves and then to their group. Lag migh tbe something ot think about, but if they didn't think it would work, would they waste all that investments on it?
- TheAmbushAhead, on 07/16/2008, -0/+7They said paradrop of soldiers and helo insertions as well, so it seems like it will have respawns.
- jstone, on 07/16/2008, -0/+7Except "Longhorn" actually sounded cooler than "Vista"
- phinn, on 07/16/2008, -0/+6I know, I don't get why people bash the name, even if its just a placeholder.
"Massive Action Game" just sounds bad ass.
They should keep it, it's as cool as Snakes on a Plane. - gmiley, on 07/16/2008, -0/+6I dunno... "Paperboy" was a pretty badass game title, a badass title for a badass game. =)
- kinseyincanada, on 07/16/2008, -1/+7personally im more of a fan of the run and gun, i never got inot the SOCOM series because of the tactics like nature, but to each his own, still looks like a great idea thou, and DC Universe looks awesome.
- jgtg32a, on 07/16/2008, -1/+7In the real gaming world those are called Mods
- nutsackorama, on 07/16/2008, -0/+6Time to get a watch.
- wedges, on 07/16/2008, -0/+5Think of this as when Vista was called Longhorn. it will change.
