MAG was a bit of an experiment when it launched last year

The madcap 256-player online multiplayer shooter had its critics, but ended up proving its worth. While never commanding a player base as large as a game like Call Of Duty, MAG has a very devoted audience that continues to play today. We still jump in every few months, such is the love developers Zipper have lavished on the title since its..

Here's a novel way of killing three birds with one stone: MAG's set to get an unlimited full-game trial for US PlayStation Plus subscribers this week

The trial will allow players to experience MAG fully, but will cap progress at level eight. This is actually the best idea ever. Why? It serves three purposes: keeps MAG's servers populated with fresh players, gives PlayStation Plus users a tasty..

If you're still heavily engaged in Zipper's massive action game, MAG, then you should probably know that a new patch has been released today

The update brings a fancy new multiqueue which allows you to line-up several game modes all at once. It replaces the game's Directive feature. The patch also includes the ability to take 720p screenshots in-game. The full patch notes can be found here.

Zipper Interactive's revealed that MAG will get a gameplay patch next week

Patch 2.10 includes "gameplay and technical amendments" along with new game queue technology. Bit of a non-story this really, isn't it? Yep, we thought so. It's that kinda day.

Zipper Interactive's Jeremy Dunham has responded to claims that MAG is struggling to maintain a substantial player-base

Posting on Zipper's official forums, Dunham stated: “This is incorrect – MAG has more concurrent players than SOCOM Confrontation worldwide on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. This has been true for every month since MAG’s release on January 26,” he said in response to..

Ever since MAG released we've always stated: "How cool would it be if all three factions from the game got to take part in one massive royal rumble style match-up?" Next week, our dreams come true

Zipper's confirmed that the Escalation DLC — which places 32 players from each faction on the map — will launch for $9.99 next week. The new game-mode actually sounds cool. Here's the gist of it: all..

We've tried MAG with the PlayStation Move controller and it's surprisingly good fun

We're not sure personally whether playing the game with Sony's glowing wand would be our preferred method, but it's nice to have the option there. And that's not to say it's not accurate enough for competitive play because it is - we know of plenty of people who've made the jump from analogue to motion controls..

A huge line-up of improvements made

MAG is enjoying something of a resurgence lately, with a sizeable price drop in North America and now the launch of a brand new 2.0 patch adding plenty of new features, including support for PlayStation Move. With an increased level cap, new skill trees as well as around 100 extra tweaks and changes, it's one of...

If you load up your copy of MAG right now, you'll be prompted to download a fresh patch which brings the 256-player shooter up to version 2

0. The update vastly changes much of MAG's progression system, aswell as increasing the level cap, introducing clan support and, of course, introducing PlayStation Move support. You're going to need to jump into the game to get an early feel for how..

Sony's announced a bunch of new titles which are set to join the PlayStation 3's "Greatest Hits" line-up

The titles include the previously reported MAG, Ratchet & Clank: A Crack In Time, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Demon's Souls, Call Of Duty: World At War, Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Tekken 6

Zipper's confirmed that the long-awaited "2

0" title update to MAG will be available within a month. The patch will not only include support for the PlayStation Move, but also a redesigned skill-tree and increased level cap. Zipper reckons that MAG now boasts "the deepest character customization and specialization ever found in a first-person shooter". Neat. The update will also..

MAG did surprisingly well

Not only has it been well received by players - drawing many hardcore PlayStation players away from the likes of Battlefield and Call Of Duty - but it was also a bigger commercial success than many anticipated. It comes with the PushSquare office seal of approval too; we really enjoyed it (and continue to do so). It's rather exciting to see MAG 2 listings pop-up on mega..

PlayStationLifestyle's uploaded some fantastic gameplay demonstrations of the new MAG beta being played with the PlayStation Move controller

We have to say, the implementation looks pretty darn impressive. Movement looks fluid (if a teensy bit clunky), while snapping between targets seems fast and precise. No doubt it's going to take a little bit of adjustment, but we're going to be all over this..

Zipper Interactive's massive scale first-person shooter, MAG, will be getting a PlayStation Move update before the year is out

No other details were given, but this should stave off your squad-based Move-controlled shooting needs until SOCOM 4 releases next year.

Zipper's massive action game, MAG, is preparing to go through another round of updates next month, as the game gets upgraded to version 1

07. Detailed on the PlayStation Blog, the update includes a number of new features including a daily "Happy Hour" mode (which doubles XP for every first hour played in a whole day period) and some improved lighting effects. The full list of goods are..

We stopped playing MAG because SVER always win

SVER always win because their maps are so bloody easy to defend. So thank goodness for Faction Neutrality, a new update to MAG's Sabotage mode. The slight tweak means you'll be able to play in your relative faction, without necessarily defending your own home-turf. For example: perhaps you're a Raven player attacking Valor. With faction neutrality you..
