Which game do you think is the best multiplayer-only experience on the ps3?

I've only played Warhawk(Demo) and MAG, but don't own either.

Even if I played all 4 games, I'm sure I would still like Warhawk the most, even though all of these games seem like fun to play.

Not much people on 1943 now that bc2 is out

SOCOM confrontation is made by slant six there better of for the PSP and Confrontation isnt as good as the old ones made by the original Devs "zipper" wait for SOCOM 4

MAG its good and really fun gives you loyalty to your faction and hatred to the other will occupy your time

Warhawk also fun still alot of people playing

I LOVED Battlefield 1943 and its a must buy as is Bad Company 2. MAG is amazing as well. If you like games that requre teamwork you will love MAG. Its the most of the bunch thats like a RPG as well in the way you level up and unlock new weapons abilities etc.

Warhawk is very fun as well, but the most arcadey of all the games. and Socom is not worth your time.

I haven't really gotten into MAG yet, may check it out after I finish GOW III. But of the games you listed, I'd have to say that Warhawk still has the best online only experience. The only online game I've enjoyed more is Killzone 2.

Hated both the warhawk and battlefield demo. Mag is proably the best one out of all 4. Socom haven't played yet

Why is it only mutiplayer only btw? Tons of better mutiplayer games instead of those.

I'm just seeing what people think. Multiplayer-only games usually have more teamwork and more people with mics compared to single/multiplayer games; not that it can't be the other way around, of course. I also need a online multiplayer game that has a lot( or at least more than enough) people playing most of the time because the 10 games I have right now are basically dead in that area(like UT3) or are single-player only, except for Killzone 2.

I think MAG is winning probably because it was the most recent release, not that it doesn't deserve it. I had a lot of fun when I played it, but it also became annoying that I had to always go to the objectives to really get some exp. I wasn't very good, so I'd usually get shot down by the enemy while they either guarded the base or tried to take it. That's why I would stay away from the objectives and shoot people around them, which really wasn't much fun. Basically, all I did was 32 vs 32 TDM because of that.

I have only played Warhawk and it is alot of fun. Tons of people still play it so the community is still very good. The only other one I would try from that list is MAG but I don't have much time or money to be investing in that game right now.

MAG is the most fun I've had with an FPS since CoD4 was originally released.

This game is great when you find people that communicate and work together. The satisfaction you get when you coordinate your attack/counter attack and tear the other team apart is simply unmatched.

That said, this game does have a pretty steep learning curve. It took me about 10 hours before I really understood what was going on. I'm willing to bet that the people who hate MAG didn't bother sticking around long enough to get to Level 8 to unlock Domination Mode (256 players).

Once you get to Level 15 and get the opportunity to Squad Lead, the game really begins to open up.

I'm not going to say it is the best online shooter. I will go on record as saying that I find it to be the most fun. Especially since I'm now part of a great clan.

Im saying MAG. Socom Confrontation was disappointing. 1943 doesnt have enough maps or weapons. Warhawk is too dependant on techniques...steepest learning curve I have seen for an online shooter.

MAG has ruined every other FPS for me. I've become spoiled and must have at least 132 people in a round now. 8 on 8 just doesn't cut it anymore. I vote MAG.

Warhawk is because it has 4p splitscreen. You fight in planes, tanks, turrets, jeeps, rocket launchers, jet packs, and it has all the great game modes.

From that list, Warhawk I haven't played MAG AgentA-Mi6

I have MAG and Warhawk and I choose Warhawk because you can play with friends onscreen and online and you get to fight in planes.

Poll Says Online only. As much as i like to say BC2, it has a story mode and MW2 dosen't count either so on that list, Warhawk.

One problem I had with MAG was that reviving people gave you 10 xp, while killing people(outside of the objective) only gave you 5 xp. It makes absolutely no sense because healing someone on your own team is way easier than killing the enemy. When I would see the scores before I actually bought the skill, I would see people who did terrible have much higher xp than me. It's so easy to rank up when all you do is med people in this game, and they should really fix that. I got to lvl 8 in 1-2 weeks by hardly ever healing anyone(I didn't know you had to buy the ability to revive someone with skill points at first), which means It's at least 2 times faster if you were reviving people once you got those 3-4 skill points.

Vehicle gameplay: Warhawk as it was built to be a vehicle game and has the best dogfighting this gen.

Teamwork gameplay (every other gameplaycategory): MAG, as the 256 player matches can become really strategic and team based.

Ive only played MAG and Warhawk (both demos) and i must say MAG is more exiting but warhawk is not bad either
