5.0 out of 5 stars A DIFFERENT TYPE OF FPS, February 2, 2009

The graphics are good, not great. The control set-up is good, not great. Online play is good, not great, due to the b.s. you have to agree to, in order to get to online play.

BUT! What is great about this game is that its not the typical run and gun game. The maps are large, the corners, second floors, hill tops, and hinden corners, are vast! You best be tactical, I mean really tactical on how you get around. You got to know when to move and when to sit on a tactical location...and be careful...someone can always be waiting around the corner. If your a true hunter of large game in the forest, you'll love this game; but if your a run and gun type, skip this one.

I just purchased this game a few days ago even though I heard it still had a lot of issues. It will take up quite a bit of space on your hard drive, roughly 3 gbs, luckly I have a 250gb hdd. First off I didn't notice any lag at all, and I couldn't find any issues with this game at all. If you're a fan of great graphics, than this game is not for you, but the gameplay is superb. You do have to have some sort of strategy before you get the mission started. If you decide to run and gun you will probably get shot and killed, there is no respawning either, so you have to make sure you stay alive. Usually what my team does, we usually stick in packs of 2 or 3 just in case we need backup. Also I really like the fact that almost every socom player has a headset, and people actually do use it while playing socom. The headset comes in really handy especially if you decide to travel in packs. I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys realistic shooters. Feel free to add me to you're PSN friends list if you wanna play socom PSN ID: solid_snake3656

I 1st got this game after loving the old socom games for ps2. I was horribly dissapointed on how bad the gameplay and graphics were. i think ps2's graphics looked better.

A year later and about 10 patches, i started playing it again...and...

wow this is a totaly new game. I love it, i stopped playing cod now and started playing this again. cod has too many little stupid kids
