Gamezine: If a competent story mode was added to the bundle this would be seen as an enjoyable game with a half-decent online option. But as a standalone product it just doesn't offer enough to put it above the rest. While this is reflected in the lower price tag, you'd be better off putting the cash towards Call of Duty 4 or Killzone 2.
Last year I wrote an article titled, The State of SOCOM. I discussed my
love and history for the beloved third person shooter that helped pioneer
online multiplayer on consoles. It has been six years since we last had a
new SOCOM game.
Baffles me as to why they have not done anything with this franchise. Seeing as how it was #1 on the official PlayStation poll.
With all the trash put up weekly on the App Store why has nobody done a clone of this yet. I've been playing Defiance as my go to 3rd person since 2013 but still nothing like that old school Socom/Socom 2 up all night gameplay.
the only game on that list that's like socom is wild land if you want socom type games then you will have to invest in a PC
RAINBOW SIX: is the closest you'll get to Socom.
Also, in response to @lookatthisi
They let go the creators, and I think socom is a game that's hard to clone even the creators had a hard time making Socom 2, Socom 3.

"Would you purchase a game you can’t play for a single penny? Video game retailer GameStop seems to think that it is worth trying to sell to this market."
Depends the situation. Usually if they have a trade in X and get Y bonus for preowned purchases, a store will let you have the excess credit if you make 1 purchase and 1 cent is cheap enough where I wouldn't have to bother returning it or eating the cost out of laziness.

MAG will be missed, my all-time favorite shooter. They're shutting servers down in January.
D'oh!
This game got straight up raped by every critic under the sun!
I own both Socom, Killzone and COD... I now only play Socom.
I guess I prefer the tactical shooter better. Hours of fun.
but for some reson i have to keep playing socom i guess having a great clan is a must in a online game and socom make it easy!!!, btw i keep playing kz2 but socom is amazing!!!
