dec 2009 release, plus delays means we should see this game late 2010... other than that it would be good if it all works as stated

Yea, I was searching for the MAG thread. Surprised one didn't exist!
Was going to create one myself, but I got sidetracked somehow (and eventually started playing MGS2 lol)
Edit: Damn the background music in the MAG E3 trailer is awesome

Wonder if it is online only .. or how much memory it would take up. Looks good though.. even though they haven't showed much.

We're Sorry, This Video is No Longer Available: It says that when i try play it.
I found another video of the same trailer. Looks amazing!
SOCOM developers Zipper Interactive are the bods behind the game, and lead designer Andy Beaudoin was the man with all the news when he took to the E3 conference stage to talk about it.
He revealed that each side will be broken down into eight-player squads led by those who had previously proven themselves.
Character advancement trees will need to be climbed in order for you to rank up and assume more responsibility among your fellow players.
The idea is to combine large-scale battles with the intimacy of squad combat.
He showed a trailer of MAG - Massive Action Game in case you were wondering - which showed huge armies and multiple views of the action. We assume the view you get in the game will be dependent on your role and ranking within your squad.
MAG is due out sometime in 2009, but no exact details just yet.
Sounds cool!

MAG is a first party exclusive game for the PS3, right?
I noticed that Zipper Interactive were the ones who made the previous SOCOMs ...

I'm excited to say the least. This has some serious potential to be a massive online fad much like WoW. Lets hope they don't fail!!

I don't think it will be like Wow (lasting as long) but it will be huge

I reckon iaculch is right. America's Spring is our Autumn. So I expect MAG sometime around March, April, May 2009

Yeh, I reckon that it'll be out about august next year (taking into account delays). As for lag rest, I'm sure they have it sorted. They know what they're doing and it's sopose to take advantage of Sonys 'advanced PS3 online infrastructure'. I haven't experienced much lag at all on my PS3, depends on Internet connection I sopose.
