Sony PS3 Gets Ready To Dive into MMO Gaming
With the Wii named the current champion as the best selling console, Sony seems to be expanding its repertoire of games. However, instead of expanding its games to reach a broader audience, Sony took the route to dip old console gamers into newer waters. At last week’s E3, Sony announced its plans for releasing large-scale MMOs on the PlayStation 3, creating quite a stir in the gaming community. Taking advantage of PS3’s ability to connect online, the massive multiplayer online games will allow normal console players to experience what PC gamers enjoy most: engaging in battle with hundreds of gamers over the world. One of their star efforts, MAG (pictured above) will involve 256 players duking it out in teams of eight. Sony also are putting their efforts into persistent gaming, where the game world continues moving, with or without you. Although these new explorations are currently being refined, it’s gotten dedicated gamers riled up about something new, just for them. At least they won’t have to share this game with their mother, unlike the popular Wii Fit.
