no, it can't happen.
when i play MW2 on my 360, it lags A LOT, and that is with like 20 people
this is just my opinion, but all of my friends who only have 360 think that teamwork is a stupid idea, and they refuse to believe that MAG doesn't lag
As much as I agree, I'd like it to happen to see the youtube videos of 12 year olds on XBL shouting at each other.

Ahh, after looking it up, I recall reading the back of the box as I was looking through the PS3 games at wal-mart the other day.

I don't see why the 360 shouldn't get it. I mean if the amount of people with microphones is an issue, don't a lot of games have the option to mute? Or have an option to turn off mic chat all together?

I'm sure it is capable of being made for both systems, regardless of specs, why not? I don't see why people feel that games should be exclusive... I mean I understand why there are exclusive, like GoW and uncharted for example... It's just that, beyond the xbox 360 and ps3... We're all gamers looking to have a good time, and if a game is capable of doing that on both systems... Why not?

If the game can't due to the systems specs, then there's nothing that can really be said or done unless the developer is willing to adjust the game accordingly.

The above statement that a game where xbox players and ps3 players could settle their differences accordingly sounds like something that would be a LOT of fun. I would buy that regardless!

I think a proper name for it would have to be "Fanboy Fisticuffs"

It's possible on the 360, just as it is on the PS3. I doubt I'm the only one who has noticed the cutback in MAG's graphics to prevent lag on the PS3, MAG actually has pretty mediocre detailing. Textures are constantly recycled. Low-poly models are used whenever possible, etc... all to cut back on processor demand, and the same is possible on the 360. Also, the 360 networking infrastructure could easily support the server demand. MAG is exclusive for the same reason as 90% of the other PS3 exclusives: Sony offers great publishing deals for exclusive rights.

Also, cross-platform multiplayer would be nice, particularly for a game as large-scale as MAG.

I don't care enough about PS3 exclusives to even play them at a friend's house. Then again none of my friends have PS3's. They all have 360's :D

I played the Beta, and i have to say it did lag quite a bit.
Not on the 'noticeable game frame rate hiccups'. But the fact that a person standing still could take 3 rounds to the head with a sniper rifle and still have enough time to turn around, reload, kill a teammate then kill me.

Eventually i gave up on sniping because of this.

Like I care. 360 owners got ME2 on the 26th, rated at 95%+. PS3 owners got MAG on the same day, with sub-par ratings at best, 80%-. I'll take a deep RPG over a generic shooter with extra players any day.

The one game I would want ported from the PS3 to 360 is Demon's Souls.
About no 360 Demon's Souls: It can't happen, due to the way the online component works and the pay-to-play nature of LIVE.

Do you really want to fight against 255 immature players that yells all the time? Do you?

Oh and all that "technno stuff that the other said" are also a factor.

It may be crap (I haven't played it yet so I can't say) but it's about time we start getting exclusives you want.

Short answer: yes but I have a PS3 and haven't even considered buying MAG yet so that says a lot about my level of interest.

Well i have PS3 so im not actually botherd, however i did vote yes..

I dont understand why so many people are voting no.. the question says "Who thinks that the 360 should have a game like MAG?" nothing about would you play it??
So why vote that it shouldnt, to me it either shows your a Fanboy of your console or for the sake of u won't play it.. so what if you wouldnt play it, it would still be good that the option is there surely?

MAG is a game that only Americans can play really.
Being in Australia, unless most (or if not all) the other players are Australians, then we WILL experience lag.
Its common in MW2 to have only 1 bar when playing against Americans.
Its not the Xbox or the PS3 for me, its just internet in general.

...*sigh*

You people make WAY to big a deal out of people talking on the mics. Live gives you soooo many ways to avoid it and there's a large chance it won't even happen in the first place. And like the others said, you only here your squad.

But I'm fine with Battlefield Bad Company 2.

What is MAG?... that cool old game where you are the editor of a games-magazine? That was a great game... But what MAG do you all mean?

Nope, in my opinion unless the whole game is made out of party of friends, the game will fail because there are always are going to be that Commando type players.

Hey, look. It's a troll.
I was trolling how? By stating facts? The game I prefer is strictly opinion, but the review scores are accurate. Look it up.

You're trolling because the first 3 words of your post, "Like I care", makes it trolling. It doesn't matter if you stated facts when you don't contribute shit to the discussion. If anything you were trying to start a flame war.
