H-Hour the remake of SOCOM II for PS4 is officially confirmed to be coming to PS4! They are also doing a pre-order / donation campaign to get it fully developed.
These days, it might be a little too easy to take for granted how accessible multiplayer gaming has become.
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.
Touted as the spiritual successor to the SOCOM series, H-Hour: World’s Elite has now entered the Beta stage of development and work has begun on the PS4 version of the game.
Really hope this game takes off...if you're interestred in starting clan, let me know!
Wonder if I'll get my PS4 copy when I pledged to back this a long time ago on Kickstarter? Or is that campaign promise dead?
I'm hoping the pledges still get honoured (be a good way to fill out servers early) but I wouldn't bank on it.
Wondering the same I'm doubtful since its been so long I figured this was done. Remember reading the director left a couple years ago figured it was all done from there
One of the reasons I bought a PS4. I'll be ready for it whenever it releases.
I thought they cancelled this. The first and only game I supported through Kickstarter. I learned from that mistake.
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.
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
You are looking at the view point I.e 3rd person view. Rainbow six siege is probably most like socom aside from H-Hour
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.
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)
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.
A lot will defend Seth saying he was a puppet, but his inactions or actions didn't help. He helped ruin the franchise.
I hope this gets funded. Not looking good but they need to extend the deadline.
This isn't a Socom2 remake
This game will be better than socom 2 hd!
Hell yes!!!
i have friends that rave about the old socom games, especially 2.
i never got a chacne to play though so im hopeful that this is made in the same way as the OG ones.
