Hopefully I'll be made to eat my words once I've given the multiplayer a test drive and also tried out the Move wand functionality too. But like I said, it's only my opinion. Don't let that put you off :) Yes, MAG was a fantastic game.

Nice review, by the way. I look forward to an update on Move capability as well as MP (when Sony ever gets this nonsense sorted out). I was stoked about this title as I love MAG, but I didn't get very excited about the beta. The small teams feel like a step backwards after MAG's 256 player epicness, and I don't like the experience leveling tied to individual weapons. Also don't care much for the TPS -- prefer FPS. But hey, I was only playing the beta -- final release may be much better. (MAG only improved on final release and through months of rebalancing patches.) Interesting, thanks. Nice review, by the way.

Enjoy. I'm a little spoilt when it comes to playing games :D <a href='http://www.ps3blog.net/members/premiersoupir/' rel="nofollow">@premiersoupir</a> - I was waiting for someone to ask that question. Was wondering how long it would be before it was asked. What I meant by that statement was that the gameplay just didn't feel up to standard. It somewhat felt rough and just didn't have the current gen feel. For example character movement, it felt slightly stiff - but that's just me and my opinion. @Pedro – you may have a different opinion to me on the game. Enjoy.

How do you understand the essential distinctions between last-gen and current-gen titles?
