Hopefully true with a single player campaign and robust online multiplayer

InUrFoxHole383d ago

I remember at the time socom 3 had the best audio ever!

Cacabunga383d ago

I want to giggle, but i keep seeing those gaas ghosts those days😣

INMATEofARKHAM382d ago

I remember liking SOCOM 4 a lot for its single player... Its MP got delt a devastating blow right after it released so I think my memories of it were of the betas...

Anyhow, it released the week of the PSN hack that left the network being down for a week or two... I enjoyed the SP in that time but all of my group that was looking forward to it just went back to the previous MP games we had been playing (mostly Uncharted 2) because after that break everything felt fresh and new again.

O jeezuz, praise the lord

They have seen the light

purple101383d ago

More info: developed by Geruilla games, (so no kill zone anytime soon).

The studio hired ex- rainbow 6 siege developers in 2019, also hired Chris Lee as principal game designer, guess where he used to work, “Slant Six’, ive just been informed thats the PSP version of SOCOM: US Navy seals developer!!

2+2 equals four in this case lads! It’s gotto be’

Omegasyde383d ago

Great If True. I gave money to the H Hour kickstarter and it was sad how that turned out.

Shiro173383d ago

I'm still waiting for my ps4 copy 😭 lmao

Johnh5223382d ago (Edited 382d ago )

If this is true graphics should be amazing using decima engine.

Amplitude382d ago (Edited 382d ago )

The only source I can find with the info you just said is one random Reddit comment from two years ago and a very fake looking box art of "Socom Resurgence" with Guerrilla's logo on it. Not saying it's not true but definitely take it with a grain of salt lol

It does seem likely that a new Socom game in 2024 would follow the same path as R6 Seige' Free to Play model though, unfortunately. I highly doubt we'll get a new Socom game that plays like Socom 2 and doesn't gouge you for microtransactions. It's too niche and too slow to hold the attention of the TikTok YouTube Shorts generation enough to be profitable. I'm equally as cynical about this as I was when waiting for Last of Us 2's multiplayer lol I dont trust this new "Games As A Service UwU" Sony very much. Helldivers 2 proved me wrong though so we'll see

Inverno383d ago

Don't let it be GaAS for the love of all that is gaming goodness. I only played the PSP games but I enjoyed them very much. If it does have multiplayer then I hope it's quality, FACTIONS needs a good replacement after it was cancelled.

Rynxie382d ago

Socom and MAG can only survive being a gaas game. I also don't mind it. I would gladly support a kz, resistance, mag or socom gaas game if it means longevity with updates.

Inverno382d ago

Longevity with updates can be achieved without it being GaAS, as evident by all the games supported long term before this service trend.

NotoriousWhiz382d ago

Games don't need to be supported long term to be successful. Just make a good game. Socom never had any updates because it was fantastic straight from the disc.

Rynxie382d ago (Edited 382d ago )

Socom would die again, if it's not a gaas game. Cod releases every year, in order to compete with cod and stay relevant in the market, socom would have to release yearly (resulting in rushed or poor quality releases). If not, every two to three years and that would mean it would never grow to the level of cod, because it would become irrelevant. Being a gaas game, socom could be updated regularly with content and remain relevant in the market.

NotoriousWhiz382d ago

Socom's community lasted for years without any updates. If they make a solid game, it can do the same.

Multiplayer can really work as a gaas. But need a single player mode too.

outsider1624382d ago

They Have to have a good single player campaign to atleast sell the game to players who love single player games. For online it's ok they can gaas it. I hardly buy them anyway unless its worth it and i support it.

ocelot07383d ago

Fingers crossed it's true. Socom confrontation was great imo.

A Socom PS5 return would be a perfect time to bring the hardcore shooter back

Sony’s original flagship shooter is a perfect series to bring back for PlayStation 5.

I want killzone.. And I want it NOW

C-H-E-F1882d ago

I loved killzone, I really hope they bring it back. I literally bought a ps vita just to play that iteration of killzone as well. The series is just sooo good. However, Socom would be so dope, there's still no game like socom on the market.

Father__Merrin1882d ago

Socom tactical team shooter would be brilliant on PS5 would also suit a BR mode

monkey6021882d ago

I need this in my life! Even with the closure of Zipper and despite being bitter over it for years now because it has been so long I'd be willing to see another studio take the mantle

ShinRon1882d ago (Edited 1882d ago )

if they could capture the feel of the first two games i would be down. socom 3 is where it started to lose me

T2X1882d ago

I hope they do and keep the Clan and communication systems intact. Loved you could vote jerks out of the room if they started any crap! That was done right!!

ThatGuyDart2130d ago

I would give anything to have Dart and company come back. I have so many ideas of what they could do to bring The Legend of Dragoon back.

PLEASE SONY!!

UltraNova2129d ago

1) Killzone or/and Resistance
2) MAG and/or Socom with proper hard core BR mode
3) Syphon Filter

bouzebbal2129d ago

The Getaway
Siphon Filter
Jak
Jade Cocoon
WipEout
Sly
Primal
Mark of Kri
...
so much potential..

AlexanderHUN2129d ago

@UltraNova "MAG"
I see you are a man of culture as well

rainslacker2129d ago

A proper Wild Arms instead of that mobile crap. Or Arc the Lad.

FACTUAL evidence2129d ago

Great ps5 launch:

Tomba 3
Legend of legaia remake
Legend of dragoon remake
Resistance 4
Infamous 3
Killzone 4

Platformgamer2129d ago

infamous 3 already exist tho, it's second son.
but yeah, tomba 3 and resistance 4 would be pretty neat

telekineticmantis2129d ago (Edited 2129d ago )

Definitely a modern 3rd person take on Twisted Metal, Key Moto and a game called G-Police.

Also what's your idea, because turned based is not so popular anymore.

KickSpinFilter2129d ago

God no please no Twisted Metal

Retroman2129d ago (Edited 2129d ago )

Go to Releases.com you will see Legend of Dragoon coming to PS4 this year.
Edit : Jax and Daxter please!!!

shuvam092129d ago

The list of dormant Sony franchises is wayyy too big....
Sony might not be able to appease even 10% of those classics fans...

S2Killinit2129d ago

Its not about quantity, quality is what would please the fan base.

Muzikguy2129d ago

All these games people are saying are great ideas. I know it's not a Sony game but I would love to see a remake of Soul Reaver

ReVibe2129d ago

I wish Sony would add more games to PS2 Classics for PS4

Also it seemed strange they brought Parappa the Rapper & Locoroco to PS4 but didn’t bring any other PS1 or PSP games to the system as well

blackblades2130d ago

Ikr wonder why they stopped doing that. Hope they bring something like that back on ps5.

LoveSpuds2129d ago

I would assume it wasn't financially viable to bring that kind of title to PS4, they were niche titles originally and although are beloved by those who played them originally (myself included) you have to think that audience is even smaller today.

phoenixwing2130d ago (Edited 2130d ago )

legend of dragoon remake or sequel would be appreciated, or just a new resistance or syphon filter. they should definitely remake syphon filter in an alternate timeline/dimension with different stuff going on. tazer is still the best weapon in syphon filter xD

Kados2129d ago

Prequel during the dragon campaign.

Qrphe2129d ago

I'd rather have a sequel where they fight the rest of pantheon of gods. We know there is an evil god of war (allegedly possessed Haschel' daughter) and Soa who created meant to destroy the world by creating the god of destruction.

ShadowWolf7122129d ago

I'd honestly even settle for a re-release with better localization.

WickedLester2130d ago

Motorstorm
Warhawk
Legend of Dragoon
Mod Nation Racers
Klonoa
Jak and Daxter
Twisted Metal

Araragifeels 2130d ago

Mod Nation Racer for PS3 was a fun game but sadly, it was a underated game.

WickedLester2130d ago

Loading times killed it. But the online was a blast and so were the creation tools.

SamPao2129d ago

yup, the loadingtimes were easily the worst i have ever experienced. else the game was great. but I just could not get over the loading....

zodiac9092129d ago

Twisted metal Black 2
Motorstorm 4

10 First-Party Multiplayer Franchises Sony Should Bring Back

Sammy: "Sony has been knocking it out of the park in the single-player department for almost a decade now, but Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida lamented the company’s lack of multiplayer hits in a recent interview. While this sector is dominated by third-party favourites like Fortnite and Call of Duty on the PlayStation 4, the platform holder does have a long list of multiplayer brands that would be ripe for resurrection with the right approach. Here are ten primarily multiplayer PlayStation franchises that we’d love to see brought back to life."

Sony should definitely bring back Warhawk, but with a more gritty post modern feel and art style. I'd also second the return of Killzone and SOCOM.

annoyedgamer2478d ago

I think the shuttered the SOCOM studio. But I would definitely like to see SOCOM again.

Majin-vegeta2478d ago

Yes Zipper was shutdown but sony owns the IP.So they can bring it back whenever they want.

Cajun Chicken2478d ago

JUST HD'ify Warhawk rerelease it and leave it as that. All it needs.

Cajun Chicken2477d ago

See, I loved Warhawk. It reminded me of the levels where could could pilot vehicles in Unreal Tournament 2004 with a mix of Halo aerial combat. It was just nice and simple. Starhawk just messed everything up by trying to put some unnecessary weird tower defence system in it.

mgszelda12478d ago

How about games that are actually older ips instead of things that just had a new installment in the last 5 years

spambot08152478d ago

console soul sacrifice when it comes to coop multiplayer.

snoopgg2478d ago

Bring back resistance, let guerrilla make a new Socom.
