It was a great game though, and props to the Zipper devs for making it work. Can't expect CCP to do the same though.
They have pretty much admitted by moving to the PC instead of the PS4 that they are not console developers. Even Valkyrie started on the PC first. I think they intend to emulate the same model for Legion.
How far could they have theoretically gone on the PS3? With enough time and money, I bet pretty far.
How far could they have practically gone on the PS3? Clearly not much further.
Source?

How far could they have practically gone on the PS3? Clearly not much further. no MAG because of player base fragmentation created by the expansion zipper release for the game dividing those who brought all maps and game modes and those who buy some of those maps and modes and those who didn't buy any. since those can't interact with other thus the game suffer a slow death. that combine with Zipper moving on into socom since they did have plan to support MAG for more than 2 years eventually kill the game. bottom line Zipper made mag as game. once they done with they move to the next project and not as platform where they laser focus for the next 5 to 10 years Seems like they saw MAG as another quick crash grab, exactly like any other company making fps games every couple of years.
Sounds oddly familiar.. almost like the exact mold CCP is following in.
Listen, Mag, a game 2-3 years older than Dust was able to do more with the PS3 using much less mature development tools.
We know the PS3 can handle 128 v 128 (so why couldn't CCP do just freaking 24 v 24).
We know the PS3 can handle much bigger and more detailed maps with trees.
We know the PS3 can do both of those things while suffering less performance problems than CCP managed with Dust.
The problem wasn't the PS3, the problem is developing a game in china.

Impressed to say the least.
The PS3 is quite the capable little device.
Isn't Destiny going to run on the PS3?
Why isn't it restricted to PS4?
Holy crap that is an amazing point... freaking Destiny, a game that just sh-ts all over Dust in ever department, is coming to the PS3.
LOL, check and mate.

I'll be surprised if it is an open world MMO-FPS on the ps4 and xbox one as Bungie has said. If it's also an open world MMO-FPS on the ps3 and xbox 360 I'll be shocked. But it's really not good to defend the ps3s capabilities with Destiny a supposed open world MMO-FPS that hasn't been released yet and won't be for another 4 month.
Well I have been doing it using MAG, BF3, hell even GTA V has more technically impressive multiplier than CCP's effort. Sh-t in Sh-t out I guess.
