dmdmdm Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I played Socom 2 a lot, about 1000 hours. Socom 3 wasn't that good and I didn't play it much (of course if they would've updated it in EU, too). Now this seems interesting because there are some classics from Socom 2. However many reviewers have given this bad scores and many people have sayed that this game is horrible. Is this game really that bad? This is on sale on PSN and new DLC just came so I was thinking about buying this. Is it similiar to Socom 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexcba Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 this game was terrible upon launch, and going for about a good year of just crap! but with the last patch and the new cold front dlc pack its finally come together as an awesome game. only complaint now is all the campers on the new maps lol gotta go allll they was across the map to get into a gunfight only to get bumrushed by 4 guys hiding behind their spawn.

Johnny Bananas Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I may pick this game back up later down the road if I start hearing better reviews but when I played it a couple months ago, it was horrible. I think most likely because I'm SO used to Call of Duty that is was a totally different game for me. Frustrating trying to get lined up for a shot when I would just die on the spot. Also, I was getting kicked out of games left and right. Sold the game back the same night I bought it. Should've listened to Blackwido. For those who don't know who he is, he is a guy who bashes SOCOM and is pretty much on point and pretty damn hilarious. Check out his YouTube vids. If they (gaming sites) would re-rate the games, I may pick it up if it meets my standards but for now, it's not a must-buy unless the online community is dying pretty quickly.

K--DAWG Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 no its a good game but early launch issues gave it a bad rep. players can also ruin it but there are idiots online in every game so if u dont get the game cause of that then ur missing out.

alexcba Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 socoms always had a vote first ask questions later mentality.. it is hard for new people to fit in due to the fact that it is run by its users but so long as your friendly you'll be ok, find a clan and stick withit.. with out a clan you will be spending more time being voted out of rooms than playing.

BIoedSerieus Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 On launch it was decent but got boring very fast, after the DLC its very enjoyable especially when you played s2 itll bring up some memories Just buy it you wont regret it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackSD884 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Love it and always will, I been playing since the first ever SOCOM. Confrontation is the worst one but is still brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Boss Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I love the challenging trophies, but I hate 3rd person shooters. If this was FPS I would be all over it. I even have a copy of this game from the headset included. And sadly 0% trophies cuz I never gave it a chance. I wish other games like MW2 had challenging online trophies like this game has.

alexcba Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 these trophies are anything but challenging, unless you consider time to be a challenge. everything is straight forward and you will eventually get them given you spend enough time playing it.. this game is the ultimate grind lol.

King Boss Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Okay maybe not so much challenging, but at least you could feel like your earning something while killing thousands of people online. I can't even finish my plat on MW2 because everytime I pop the game in I'm addicted to online play and completing challenges. I'd rather earn stupid titles and emblems on a game I love compared to earning trophies on a game that I'm not into, what's wrong with that picture?

djdaners Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Reviewers gave it a bad rating because it was very laggy during its first few weeks of release. I think it's an under rated game, but takes a fair while to get used to. I regret buying it as I suck at it. But for $3 on ebay [yes, really!] it is worth trying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
