256-Player Shooter MAG Is "Only Possible On Playstation 3".

  The game, which was unveiled at E3 and has since dropped off the radar, is claimed to be "only possible on Playstation 3" by SCEA's John Koller. In an interview with vg247.com, Koller said:

“MAG is a 256 online-player game which is spectacular.”

“If you look at that competitively, it’s something that’s only possible on PS3. The processor speed, the ability of PS3 to showcase 256 players at any given time, and their actions.”

“It’s basically like an iteration of SOCOM, where you’re maybe commanding the SEALs, and someone else has the Rangers, and the Green Berets, and so on.”</blockquote>

Hopefully MAG won't launch plagued with the same issues as SOCOM Confrontation. Apparently MAG is still set for release in fall 2009. Guess we'll find out more at E3.
