I'm going to keep this review simple. If you want a really accurate viewpoint of this game just check out Scott Robert Ganz's review. He pretty much nailed it IMO. One thing I have to comment on though is the fact that the online community for SOCOM is one of the worst I have seen. I really don't know why they included a headset. Nobody uses it except to badmouth the other players on their own team!

I'll start by saying that this review will NOT be about SOCOM's various technical snafus. I've played the game through several revisions and I've had a fairly smooth ride from a technical standpoint.

This is a great game and highly recommended, though you need to set some time aside and be patient playing this one compared to other shooters.

The game in its current form is a good game with a lot of potential, the basic premise is there it's just missing a lot of features witch will be implemented in upcoming patches like 1.30, witch will make the game even better.
It's a great online game if you have the patience for this type of tactical shooter games and for the developers to churn out the patches to make it an awesome game.
