Customer Reviews

Socom great buy.
I already have this game downloaded from the american psn store. This is a 3rd person shooter so its like your rainbow 6 but much better. There were a few problems with the servers at first although iv not experianced any problems recently so by the time its out here everything should be sorted. You get to customize your own charcters one comando and one mercenary. Its clan based game you can choose what special forces you join whe you create a clan many to choose from each come with a slight diffrence in guns availabile. there are many game modes remember this is ONLINE ONLY such as extraction, demolition, escort and the usual team death match games. I think there are more game modes but most are planting a bomb or securing hostage with slightly diffrent scenarios. I love how tactical you can be working with teammates on this game as in one game it ended up our team with 3 against about 6 this forced us to work together covering each other and one picked them off one by one. This is a must buy for the people that love a third person shoooter and enjoy playing online. I dont have the headset ye but from what i hear the quality is amazing although a few saying its uncomfortable. I headset is a must for this game. I think the voice chat is cool you need to press L2 to speak over the comms or if your near the people you just speak and they hear you that includes the enemy. O and when you take cover you use sixaxis to peer round and over or duck. It also uses sixaxis for throwing grenades takes a bit to get used to can be a bit tricky. Enjoy it.

GREAT GAME GREAT HEADSET
pre-ordered this game from amazon about a month a go and it arrived yesterday on the same day it was released, looks great takes a few minutes to install, headset pairs immediately and is very comfortable and easy to use. Gameplay is good, connected straight to a game, no ploblems. In game there were no lag or glitches that everyone seems to be complaining about, I guess this is why they took so long to release it but looks like they've finally sorted it! I'm finding it hard to get used to after playing fps like cod5 but graphics are good and controls are smooth, sixaxis is innovative and fun to use. There are loads of customisations including, camo, armour, headgear and weapons, you can have loads of different sights, scopes, lasers and bipods etc which I think call of duty lacks only having one attachment at a time. Weapons are cool modern and reallistic. Overall gameplay is great, headset is fantastic, well worth it.

WITHOUT THOSE WHO ARE RANTING ABOUT DELAY...
JUST SO YOU KNOW, WITHOUT THE REVIEWS THAT ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE DELAY THIS GAME GETS ABOUT 4 STARS FROM CUSTOMER REVIEWS
