This game really never stood a chance anyway. If it was realesed in the next week or so it would be destroyed by Call of duty and Resistance 2, and when it gets released in January it will be destroyed by Killzone 2.

Plus anyone who really wants it would of already imported it.

Its not. Was in the beta and played the final game, still complete crap. Its obvious how crap the game is these days. I mean look how popular socom 2 was compared to this one.

i was kinda disappointing with the servers in the beginning, but when that was fixed.... it was socom at its BEST. cant wait for the next patch, i believe it will make this game go from an 8.8 to a 9.3 in my perspective.

This isn't a problem. Its so easy to import the game from ebay.

I just don't think some of the Europeans will care about this game when its 2009 because of Killzone 2. To some gamers, they'll have two games to enjoy.

well its a "flop" in the missing features department but in gameplay its far from a flop. sales arent great because from the looks of it... not alot of socom fans have a ps3 yet. but now that the servers are fixed.... oh man this game is CRACK.

i am playing a "flop" right now, bbl.

well this generation there was a big focus on worldwide releases for games and enarly all games have been able to do that. Not a surprise though when you look at previous socom games and the gaps between american and eu releases, particulary socom 3 which was ridiculously late over here

They'll get a better product in the end. Maybe everything that was promised to be in the game will actually be there when it finally comes out in Europe.

Slant 6 is the worst gamming company in the vid game industry.
The community during the beta told them not to release the game, since it was broke, they did, got their money, and we are still beta testing the game for releases in other regions.
The game still has MAJOR flaws in it, does NOT meet all the specs. as posted on the retail box.
What they heck good is a game, which CANT tally up scores properly /
Cant make this stuff up

Once again, us europeans are shafted by those damn japs.. it's bad enough that we have to wait months on end for nintendo to release stuff over here.. and tales of vesperia never makes it over here.. now we get this?? While it might be broken, it would be nice whether or not we can play it just like everyone else can. To top it all off.. we generally pay quite a bit more for our games too.

13.1 - I agree
If this turns out to be true, I will be none too pleased. People can hate on MS, but at least they usually release 1st and 2nd party titles worldwide simultaneously. LBP, Resistance 2 and now SOCOM, this need to stop now.

People can say you shouldn't care as it sucks, but I am (or if this turns out to be true, was as I refuse to support this practice of treating EU consumers as second rate)looking forward to this game, as i enjoy tactical shooters.

i think this game is terrible anyways. EU owners/ It's only SOCOM. If it was Killzone delay then we have something to talk about but this... pfft it's not even made by the real people.

Being the last guy and killing three guys on the other team to win the game while all your teammates watch you is priceless. Having them all give you compliments is even better. You want a online game that is challenging then Socom is for you.
