PlayStation HOME is coming this fall".

I love the gameplay in SOCOM and all the teamwork involved, (unlike that other 3rd person shooter) but I just wish that they would steal the cover system from that 3rd person shooter. The cover system and leaning for me is sorta clunky at times.

I am in home and i tried the socom implementation. I could launch the game from home but that was about it. Couldn't create a party couldn't do nothing:(

leave it in the past?? oh right cuz playstationlifestyle has always been right besides that...

FW 2.40 to come out BEFORE Metal Gear Solid 4 on the 10th
Kojima pushing 2.40 for Trophy support
Home Betas Invites to be sent weekly untill its full release

you can take all my bubbles but its the truth, why do they post anything at all

to be fair. They weren't the only sites running those rumors. I doubt the rumor originated from them. On the other hand the Hardware 2 rumor did and they do deserve crap for it. Not that i don't like them they are a cool bunch of guys but the criticism will help them become more professional and they won't judge the gun on unconfirmed rumors ever again

I agree sonarus, not to mention they were the only ones to get a their hands on the screenshots of the trophy system, Bioshock on PS3, and in game XMB in action before anyone else.

I vouch for playstation life style saying they are legit. SeV1512 has alot of connections along with the others.

So they get one story wrong, big deal. Funny how I told people since last year that Jeopardy and wheel of fortune were coming and no one believed me. I also still stand saying that the next Everquest will also be released on the PS3 2009 Q4, with game announced at GDC 09.

Its like the warhawk space they promoted a while ago, with tactical virtual representation of ingame maps for pre/pos game planning.

I think direct game launching is a go, if theres a title to have it this one is.

8 - Anyone else notice how there are no reviews for the socom game and there are plenty of reviews for LBP.....
Did this game not come out today....weird how LBP is coming out in November and there are allready scores....

@edit so its a online game only makes a difference...I remember seeing early reviews for warhawk as well as other xbox live games.....and socom came out today yet there are still no reviews....smells fishy. small brain...lol hilarious. and considering socom is a well loved sequel..you would think there would be more advertising and hype....weird.

thats because SOCOM is an online-only game. they want to wait til the servers are 100% normal so they can fully experience the game... you dont want them to experience nothing but lag(not that it is laggy)?

i got socom today and ive been playing. there were some lags here and there but that always happen on release day

Your not serious are you? HAHA you can still just put in the disc and play.. You can launch a game from home without exiting.. So if your chillin in home, and some friends come online.. you can just launch the game instead of taking the time to leave home then go to the disc and hit start..

Maybe you want to meet up with some people first, and then go into a Socom game. Maybe you meet someone in Home playing chess and decide to play Socom after. Maybe you want to form a party of people that aren't in your friends list. Socom could even have a Warhawk like Home space that lets you brainstorm strategies for each map.

Some people will use Home, and some people won't. Just because you don't see the use for it, doesn't mean others should be deprived of a innovative free service.

Edit: I'm pretty sure you can launch a game from anywhere. I'm not in the beta, but the videos I've seen had someone launching a game from the outside area.
