SOCOM U.S. Navy Seals Trilogy? Wait, is this a typo? According to an Amazon.com Customer Service employee, it is completely true.

Let's get some answers Sony, we want SOCOM BACK TO ITS ROOTS

mugoldeneagle035053d ago (Edited 5053d ago )

Like who's developing, was it in development before or after Zipper was canned, etc.

I guess it makes sense though. Shut down the PS2 fanbase but give them a reason to upgrade.

Still a rumor though...Though this would make my year

sinncross5053d ago

If this is true, I think that Sony must take the stance of creating a unified online MP mode.

So I believe that most people find Socom 2 to have the best MP. Then do not bother giving S1 and S3 online modes. Use the S2 online (and perhaps make it a separate section) and then add maps from S1 and S3 that would work or something... i just feel that a online mode for each game would only spread out the community too much.

MrBeatdown5053d ago

I think the answer is right there on the Amazon listing...

"Platform: PlayStation2"

It makes me think this is just some old listing for a triple pack of all three games for PS2 that never saw the light of day, not any kind of HD collection, unfortunately.

They (sony) have updated in in January. It was put up by them in 2009. Why continue to update it?

SSX TRICKY is one of my favorite multi-player video games of all time . Maybe because i used to spin on my back and head in the early 80s when I was in high school.

Games to Play if You Miss SOCOM

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.

ONESHOTV23208d ago

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

USMC_POLICE3208d ago

You are looking at the view point I.e 3rd person view. Rainbow six siege is probably most like socom aside from H-Hour

Majin-vegeta3208d ago

Army training grounds its F2P.

ion6663208d ago

Insurgency Socom mod perfect adaption. Play it

C-H-E-F3208d ago

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.

LOOK_AT_THIS_I3207d ago

No way man. The devs at Trion made Defiance. I know different genres different games but this could have very easily turned into a war game rather than a kill the mutants/aliens games. Ghost recon actual gameplay is about the closest to the old Socom feel due to the squad format and team commands but it was still clunky at times. Using the wheel was cumbersome to command teammates and strategies on how you approcahed a scenario.

FFS you could control your teammates with a microphone in the ps2 days. You can't tell me that it is that hard when people throw up mods on the pc all the time that mirror the original games using random game engines. These are professionals with money/tech that most people don't have access to.

(Seth Luisi was the problem at zipper, he tried capturing ghost recon/cod fans with Socom by slowly turning the Socom series into Frankenstein GR/COD lite games)

C-H-E-F3207d ago

Getting that feel, that rush being the last one alive, Rainbow Six is the closest I got to that feeling since Confrontation. And we all know that was a horrible Socom, but looking back at it, SC was a great game just had a horrible release.

I didn't play defiance, but ghost recon is and was trash.

InTheZoneAC3207d ago

A lot will defend Seth saying he was a puppet, but his inactions or actions didn't help. He helped ruin the franchise.
