"Also known as SOCOM 4 if you are from those States which we call America. In this numerically defunct version here in the United Kingdom you play as appallingly voice-acted Cullen Gray who is the leader of a squad of NATO Special Forces deployed in Malaysia to bring stability to the region with your bullets of peace. Eventually though, naturally, conflict must occur and Cullen and Co. are forced to battle for their lives and escape the country before being hung, drawn and quartered for their terrible British accents."
"The SOCOM franchise is a long and storied one, and today we're very happy to announce that we're revisiting its past and bringing back what is perhaps the series' most popular mode, "Demolition". Existing owners of SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy SEALs will be able to download the Demolition Pack for $9.99 with today's PlayStation Store publish, which brings with it not only the Demolition competitive multiplayer game type but new maps, weapons and character skins as well.

Wtf....why do NEW players get rewarded and not the ones that have stuck around even with all the hate around it? The game is even getting a price drop because of it? Give me a break.
This is where DLC starts to get irritating. Should of be in the game to begin with...
That is kind of a slap in the face. They wait a year to release demo...and those who got the game early has to pay but new users get it free? They are seriously better off just porting all the old maps to confrontation. Those who are left on sc would buy every dlc for it.
Fuck zipper for screwing this game up, I got rid of this tps/fps inbred piece of crap two weeks after I got it. Was indenial about it sucking at first but there's no hope for this, its just not as good as other offerings. So they split the fanbase and now they wanna bring back demolition, this won't save the game.
After the disappointing "SOCOM: Confrontation" Sony tried to make the new "SOCOM: Special Forces" more attractive with the new developer team Zipper Interactive, a new story and by using the PlayStation Move motion controller.
Socom 4 is the latest game to hit the market from the developers Zipper Interactive the developers previous outings include the cult favorite Crimson Skies, also the cult game MAG and all the other Socom games as well.
I recommend this game. Have put a lot of time into it.
To get the best out of the single player, play it on hard difficulty or above.
Also, online co-op on hard difficulty is excellent, especially when you find players that are up for the challenge. Had some great games the other night with a great co-op team.
What? People with terrible British accents are to be hung?
Personally I disagree with this article. I feel it is important to not only have horrible accents in movies but also in games, therefore I support this game.
