Anybody playing this? It's a very cool game. This game is really hard to explain. Its similar to CODMW2 but the dynamics are different. CODMW2 is just plain different. This game requires more strategy and team play then that game. It's a very different pace in terms of game play but I love it.

Terrific multiplayer.
Destructible environments should be a standard when appropriate.

I have to agree. It's time. Just like games that didn't include "rag doll" physics in shooters seemed archaic and old....I am starting to feel the exact same way when it comes to shooters without destructible environments.

If I hit a tree it should fall. If I fire at a wall it should do damage. The days of indestructible wood fences and boxes should be over.

In a van...down by the river.
It was between BBC2 and MAG for me and i chose MAG.
I've heard good things about BBC2......but i'm hooked on MAG. 128 vs 128 online with little to no lag.
Its a PS3 exclusive DarenG and i cant remember what console you're using.

I am on the 360. Way too many good games on the 360 not to have one. I love shooters and the 360 is loaded with shooter goodness. I have played MAG and it's good. It's just hard for me to pull the trigger on a PS3 when I feel like the better game library is on the 360. I am looking to add another Blu Ray Player to the house. Maybe then.

Just picked this up. I can't stop playing it. I haven't even touched the Campaign mode, went straight to multiplayer. Getting killed left and right but I'm starting to get the hang of it.

EXACTLY what happened to me. The multiplayer is addicting. I think I played multiplayer for a week or so before I even touched campaign.

I absolutely love this game. I hate COD so this was refreshing for me. I just started playing a month or so ago and have leveled up pretty quickly. I am looking to try to figure out how to fly the darn helicopters though.

Now I have a predicament as the sequel to my favorite game just got release, Lost Planet 2. There is just not enough time in the day for all my gaming.

anyone want to play or add me my gamertag on 360 is kps0001. Imagine that. ;)

I will add you. Mine is "Covert Rain" (there is a space).

I am, but I'm on PS3. I'm still all-in on this game. Absolutely amazing multiplayer.

New maps announced (Map Pack 7) and Vietnam expansion pack coming. I looked at a preview of the maps and they look pretty damn cool. This will be this games last hurah before Battlefield 3 next year I would think.

Supposedly, they also upped the destructibility of objects on the game...calling it Destruction 2.0. Anxious to try that one out.

I picked this up a few months ago at GameStop for $2.

Best $2 I've ever spent. Playing it on XBox 360 - Multiplayer is terrific. Best I've ever played.

Anyone else still play this?

For $2, you've piqued my interest!
