XeNonX's latest enlistee Giancarlo Feltrin has put his review up for the highly anticipated third person tactical shooter SOCOM: Confrontation. Although there was a lot of hype surrounding this game Mr. Feltrin seems less than impressed, yet optimistic.
From the review:
"This is the first SOCOM I've played, and I understand that graphics have never been the series' strongest suit. But honestly, this is simply not up to PS3 standards. It looks like it should be on the PS2. Textures of environments are nicely done but several screen and menu glitches as well as character clunkiness mar the game. Character customization is cartoony and movement is unrealistic."

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
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.

"Would you purchase a game you can’t play for a single penny? Video game retailer GameStop seems to think that it is worth trying to sell to this market."
Depends the situation. Usually if they have a trade in X and get Y bonus for preowned purchases, a store will let you have the excess credit if you make 1 purchase and 1 cent is cheap enough where I wouldn't have to bother returning it or eating the cost out of laziness.

MAG will be missed, my all-time favorite shooter. They're shutting servers down in January.
