i have yet to get full use of that headset 2sad

i thought pios was sick on game but them young boy i does be hearing over the mic even worse

[pimptacular]

sum ah dem even sound like dey in they 30s

[Cjruckus]

SOCOM isn't sh1t...it's Sony and Slant6 screwed everyone

The game has plenty potential but they phoq up big time, they knew since the beta versions the server had problems and obviously it's saturday night and most PS3 owners have no lives so they will be playing SOCOM

SOCOM has a global following...and they fully well know this...but chose to do nothing

Now $60USD later people are pissed...but have a decent headset

No no no, Sony players have a life thats why they do server maintainence on the Saturday. Xbox Live cant do such a thing because the XBots will sell their tanks and buy Wiis.

[honda hoe]

socom reviews from a regular game player

socom review from ng4

http://www.kingps3.com/_r1.php

my only "complaint" with the 2nd review is dat u can't rate a game based on the assumption dat the game will play a certain way if/when the servers are fixed. to be honest they should wait until the issues are sorted, or rate it based on how it the experience is NOW

[pimptacular]

it not suppose to be like cod in the first place..
supposed to be team work but most ppl does jus go on a free for all by themself den complain when dey get shoot up like a cont

[pimptacular]

well i was never no big gamer so i never played cod4
a certain tuner chain meh up to buy ah ps3 and socom

[RapToR]

[honda hoe]

pios... socom being for "hardcore ppl" is a bunch ah crock

different ppl like different games

it is MY opinion dat cod4 is better dan socom

it have nuttin to do wit me getting fragged

i honestly haven't bothered playing since saturday cuz the servers were giving so much trouble i couldn't even join a game

i remember las year when i was catchin my ass to play rainbow 6 vegas... dat was the HARDEST shooter i've ever played to date... but i still played it and enjoyed it and beat it. difficulty is not necessarily a turnoff for a videogame

maybe i jus had a very bad 1st impressino of the game cuz at launch the servers were in a real mess and i haven't really given the game a fair chance

bt it doesn't really matter anyway cuz nex 2 weeks i won't be playing any shooter other dan resistance 2

[pimptacular]

i still eh know how de fak up to now u eh get in a game
i feel u jus blight with tha game

I have had Mixed Feelings about Socom, and a mixed experience as well. So far the bugs on the servers have been ironed out to an extent where you wouldnt get the game dropping glitch on maps and most games are fairly lag free on a flow connection.

The game itself suffers from a customize your guy until it works for you syndrome. I consider this a double edged sword. You can go in, make a character suited for your needs and exploit his strengths based on your playing style, but if you are like me and want do to everything then, you are stuck with pure Fail. Instead you end up with a guy who is not really good at anything and would get killed by pro rushers, pro snipers, and pro demolition experts. So thats when your skill comes in, but seeing that formula SMG > M4a1 rifle applies to this game, you need to watch for enemies and hit them from far.

Which would bring me to my biggest complaint about this game. At times it becomes a Pure Camp Fest until someone makes a mistake and talks too hard on mic. Each Team Camps Spawn or the best Camp spots near the spawn and wait. These sessions can sometimes go on for 20 minutes of no kills on a small server. So its somthing you need to be aware of. Especially in Ranked matches because stat whoring is rampant. While the game does give you points for assists, which is the gold star for you being the fcuk up and having your teammate take the kill. It still does nothing for you in the end because it is merely a tie breaker.

I would tell people to pick it up, but be prepared for a rough learning curve.

The PS3 headset is ok however. Has some good PS3 features, but the SQ and comfort isnt as good as my plantronics voyager 510. The headset could use some more flex, and maybe a cushion on the ear peace.

now pioneer, being good/consistent in any aspect of a game takes skill eh, except getting fragged even though i know some guys who seem to have it down to a fine art

and camping/sniping does slow down a game so i tend/try to rout snipers

[honda hoe]

waiting in a 10 storey balcony waiting for somebody to pass once every 10 mins for a headshot is not my idea of a fun game

[toybago]

agreed honda hoe, but everyone has their idea of 'fun'

i would fall asleep after about 2 minutes of waiting

[honda hoe]

well pioneer has no gaming skills so maybe dats why he likes socom.. everybody asleep or getting server problems so he'll jus use it to his 'advantage'

[toybago]

well i can't comment on a man gaming skills till i get him in my sights

[toybago]

hmmmmm.....

i still find sniping slows down a game

what if everybody finds a 10 storey building and sits and waits.....and waits.....and waits.....

[toybago]

doh worry he'll be forced to learn the way of the gun or forever be branded as cannon fodder

i'll stick to COD4 for now though
