Not only is this game going to be awesome, but David Sears and SOFstudios are making it the right way by embracing the community and listening to feedback.. I can't wait. Get on board their Kickstarter campaign while there is still time!
I find it surprising that SONY doesn't see SOCOM as the console-selling juggernaut that it SHOULD be. Lots of people, myself included, will buy a PS4 as soon as a real SOCOM game is announced. Make the right decision now, and the SOCOM community will be buying PS4's, controllers, headsets, and other games for the entire life cycle of the console. Wait a year or two to announce a real SOCOM game, and that's a year or two of purchases that SONY wont get back.
SOFstudios is on track to make an awesome game that is absolutely needed for next gen. It will be a welcome change from all the generic shooters out there these days. Now it just needs to be funded. Everyone get to that Kickstarter and show some support!
