When MAG was demoed at E3 2009, I was giddy with excitement. All of a sudden everything that Hideo Kojima wrote in his Metal Gear story-lines had been compiled and repackaged as a huge 256 person shooter on a free online service. Zipper Interactive carved their way into my fanboy head with promises of organized gameplay and in-depth class systems that had as many possibilities as their were people online. The public beta is now unlocked and can be played by anyone who owns a PS3. What is the verdict on this massively open beta?
Wet was one of the few games dropped by Activision when they acquired the rights to Vivendi. Then it was floating around homeless for a while. Recently, Bethesda Softworks picked it up and will be releasing it for the PS3 and 360 September 15th.
