Massive Action Game
Hey Sony, kudos for getting it right with your upcoming PS3-exclusive MAG and avoiding the usual, generally dubious review exclusives. After all, you're about to release a massively-multiplayer shooter tomorrow that supports--and by your own estimates, practically demands--up to 256 players simultaneously.
That's 256 players divvied into squads of eight players, with four squads to a platoon and four platoons comprising a company.
Yeah, massive. As in 'action game'. Ergo MAG.
According to Sony Computer Entertainment's Jeff Rubenstein (noticed by Examiner) on the official PlayStation blog:
Reviews can’t be written until the game is actually out. I mean, you can't pass pre-release judgment on a game whose major, industry-leading feature (256 players in a single battle) can’t be tested until release day.
So 256. That's certainly a big number in game lingo. It's also apparently an area code in Alabama, the number of different values in a data byte, 4 raised to the fourth power, the number of columns in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, the largest three-digit number that's also an 8th power, the hertz frequency of Middle C, the number of regular season games in the NFL, and--wait for it--the legendary 'split-screen' level in Pac-Man.
And we thought 16-player 28,000 baud Quake matches back in 1997 were mind-boggling.

The global Beta allows you to compete with players in the game's 64-player 'Sabotage' and 256-player 'Domination' game modes.
Your path to playing it is a simple three-step process, says SCEE:
* Log on to the PlayStation Store and download the MAG Beta file like you would any other freely-available PSN video or demo (37 MB) * Launch the MAG Beta program from your XMB to download a special patch that will restart MAG once the update has been received (another 38 MB) * After the reboot, the beta will reconnect and download the actual game data so that you can play (1.8 GB - 2.3 GB depending on your region)
"It's possible you may experience some issues connecting to games for the time being," says the PS Blog, which assures that Sony's "working to resolve" the problems.
The beta's due to end on January 11 at 07:59 GMT. Go on then, get on with it.
