Holy sweet awesome sauce batman.

I think it's cool too =D

FPS instead of Zippers classic choice of Third Person? That really surprises me.

Unlike most Socom fan's I'm completely faithful that they'll deliver with M.A.G. Can't wait to see more info. So far the screens and even the art work look good.

I think the most underappreciated feature in Zippers past games were map layouts. The level design was perfect, even in the Socom 3/CA maps we hated.

Hopefully we get more info before E3

with hardly any comprise in visual quality. MAG FTMFW!

Fox015351d ago

Looking good so far. Don't forget that the game's going to have 256 players online!

LoVeRSaMa5351d ago

I would expect this game to be focusing on gameplay more then GFX, but it seems they are doing a great job on both sides which has impressed me.

I am still very curious to how this 256 players will be achieved, I will be picking the game up to see how they have done it.

gj Socom team.

Immortal Kaim5351d ago

The concept of 256 players is great, as someone else pointed out, the level design and objective based gameplay will have to be top-notch to sustain those types of numbers (which I'm sure it will be).

Microsoft Xbox 3605351d ago

Only possible on the PS3.

Left and right, we have PS3 games breaking technical boundaries never before seen on consoles. Can't say the same for the primitive machine also known as the Xbox 360.

Owning a 360 is useless at this point.

Chris3995351d ago

but I honestly didn't expect the game to look this good. Online games usually take a hit in terms of graphics. MAG looks really polished, especially considering the 256 players that are going to be running around blowing sh*t up all over the place.

Verdict = buy!!!

Jamegohanssj55351d ago

Ugh FPS? Damnit! I am tired of FPS's. Also I wonder if these are early screenshots as they still need some polishing done to it. The smoke and fire screen looks cool.

Hate to be negative but the maps look too damn crowded.

The maps in Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 look much bigger and those games "only" accomodate 64 players.

I hope the 256 player maps are much bigger with vehicles. Vehicles are a must. I don't want to walk everwhere.

ps- great find. thanks for posting.

Super-Brad5351d ago

This reminds me of warhawk just unscaled in size.

gaffyh5351d ago

@killax - yeh but the annoying thing about warhawk is that it takes forever to find someone to kill cos the maps are too big. I guess these guys are taking lessons from that

TheRealSpy5351d ago

it looks like a source mod.

graphics aren't top notch, but still solid looking.

Montrealien5351d ago

this is the true Soccom sequel, and its looking damn good.

emitsomla5351d ago

PS3 CAN DO MUCH BETTER THAN THIS!

Mainman5351d ago

Is this gonna be an FPS?

I was hoping it would be TPS, I was really looking forward to this game, but if it turns out to be an FPS I most probably wont buy it.

Seriously, enough with the FPS's.

Pixel_Addict5351d ago

Looks like Battlefield on sterioids and crack. There a cool futuristic look to some of the soldiers! I am really excited for this game! I hope they change the name though. MAG? I can already hear fanboys snickering.

EXCLUSIVEGAMER5351d ago

anyways, whatr does mag stand for?

MARINe AIR GROUND ?

anyone know? glossy bubble for you if you tell me

SoapShoes5351d ago

Stands for Massive Action Game. Anyway who says this isn't third person? Maybe it's both, like Socom? Only this time you can see the gun in first person.

Dark General5351d ago (Edited 5351d ago )

Do not want. No more FPS's for me. If it was third person i'd be cool with it.

CrimsonFox135351d ago

@1.9
Yeah, it does look a bit crowded. But damn, that looks amazing. I can't wait to parachute into a hot battlefield! Really hope tanks and vehicles will be drivable. I saw them in the pictures, but no one was driving them!

SaberEdge5351d ago

I think the graphics are pretty impressive and with the makers of Socom behind it I am sure it will be awesome.

gaffyh5351d ago

@Mainman - I'm guessing it's both.

@Exclusivegamer - M.A.G. = Massive Action Game

sharpened sense5350d ago

I am personally more excited for this game then any other.
