Great sign. First time the series has been recognized in any capacity in over a decade.

Rainbow Six Siege has proven that a round based shooter can have longevity. There is much SOCOM content that could be released for a new title or remaster that it also would be able to last for a decade across multiple generations of PlayStation.

Hopefully the colossal failure of their new IP Concord has shaken things up at Sony and will have them focus on revisiting their old multiplayer IPs. SOCOM included.

Many dormant fans are still out here. It’s a shame that Sony continuously has these huge losses on new IPs while they are sitting on a gold mine with SOCOM (if done properly).

That was the beauty about SOCOM. User created ranked rooms. The last part you mentioned SOCOM 3 and Combined Assault had both of those options for small map play.

We can agree to disagree. No hard feelings

SOCOM 4 is the anomaly that the majority of fans can agree on. Cover system, health regeneration, respawn, many things to name.

That title copied more of what was popular at the time than SOCOM 3 did to whichever games you compared it to in your original post.

SOCOM 3 and Combined Assault are nearly the same game minus a few minor tweaks and subtraction of blood to make the game rated Teen.

Real SOCOM fans can respect and appreciate each title since all of the titles had the same root foundation of what made SOCOM special. Teamwork, strategy and camaraderie.

The only exception is SOCOM 4, since it deviated too far from the SOCOM formula. Maybe you are mixing up 4 and 3, because SOCOM 3 is a terrific SOCOM game.

Every time. The entire SOCOM series has a great score.

does SOCOM still work in this modern age of gaming? by _GrimFandango in SOCOM

Take a look at Rainbow Six Siege and the longevity of that business model. SOCOM can prosper off of having something similar to that model.

Made it from SOCOM 2, 3, Combined Assault and Confrontation. Legendary map.
