I really like this game for the game play and the graphics. I also like being able to talk to my teem members via the headset-mic. It makes it much faster to give cmds. One thing though it recognizes my voice just fine but my gf couldn't get it to respond to hers.
The only draw back to the game is Boomer. He is a fucking retard! You tell him to hold fire and he will still take out a sentry if he sees him. You can�t tell him to hold position so he sometimes gives you away when you�re trying to be sneaky. (You will be crawling up on an enemy and boomer is running around like a paranoid chicken.) I swear you will want to cap his ass your-self!

But even with Boomer the game still rocks! The graphics are great and no screen flicker. I have played the same mission over and over just to try to complete every objective even though I could have gone on with out doing so. So the game play is great, you don�t get bored with trying again and again.

Do any of you have this game?

I have yet to buy the network adapter for the ps2, but when I do I would be interested into putting together a fire team of totse members. If you have this game and the network adapter or are planning to get them, and are interested in joining a fire teem let me know.

I'd play it if I had a PS2. But yea, i think it looks too much like one of my favorite games of all times, Syphon Filter. I just saw a couple of screen shots, but never seen it in action. But tons of Mags give it good ratings.

isnt there a pc version? i thought there was. if there is i will get a copy and play with you (if possible when using ps2 and pc together)

There is a PC version.

no, unfortunately.

well i want some answers here before i really buy software. ill have to do some research.

Ive been stuck on this game for weeks. I cant get the nukes disarmed. Ive managed to get to them twice but couldn't disarm them. I found 2 of them are there more? Oh well I'll be trying all day today so wish me luck.

Ain,
First you disarm the nukes. This is accomplished by disarming just one. To disarm, you must hold the button down until the little timer on screen is completed. (this is similar to when you had to paint the bunkers with the laser for the airstrikes) Then you rearm the nukes the same way and they will reset, giving you a time limit to get the hell out. If you killed most of the guys when going in, you shouldn't run into too much difficulty leaving. When you exit the set of caves where the nukes are and find yourself in the rocky open place that leads to the first series of caves, head left and you can take a shortcut which will lead to the cave where the first inside generator was located. Watch out for guys everywhere but the front caves should be clear. Run out into the open area from the beginning of the mission and soon the chopper will come for you.

A nice trick in this level is to shoot out the light bulbs in each cave. This makes it a little harder for the enemy to spot you and gives you more time to kill them. Also on the way out, I found it helpful to pick up one of the enemy's assault rifles. You have no more need for stealth, and the fast heavy shots of the ak-74 and the likes will kill pretty efficiently. Plus there's plenty of free ammo.

Hope this helps. Peace.

Thanks alot I could not figure out the disarming part I was going back and forth from nuke to nuke trying to get them disarmed. I was not holding the button down I was just letting the timer run out, While he fiddle fucked around with it.

Man Thanks again I got past it. On to the next mission.

Cool, glad I could help.

I have have the sony network adaptor, but i am yet to buy Socom, as i am dead broke. I guess i am gonna have to start saving again...

I haven't played online as of yet, but the one player game is great by itself. It's totally worth buying even if you didn't have the network adapter. Let me know how it goes.

Well I beat the game today. Now I have all the weapons and the missions are harder. I love this game.

How is the single player game play? Is it anything like Rainbow Six?

Not really. You don�t have to set nav points. But you can order Bravo team to Lead, Attack, Stealth, and Run to a certain point. Or to wherever you point the crosshairs. The game play is very realistic. You can even give voice commands! Just imagine being a Navy seal. How would you move through different terrain? React to an ambush? Fire and move? One mission you will be on a barge gathering Intel and scuttling the ship. The next you may be in Alaska or deep in a jungle. Clearing caves in the desert or in an urban environment. So how is the game play? It�s Realistic!

The one Real bitch I have about the game is fire control. Anyone who has been a team leader, or even part of a fire team would understand the importance of controlling where your team members fire. There is a "cover area" command. But the range is short. If it had a fire on my crosshairs command it would be perfect. That is the only thing it�s lacking.

Damn it, I finally got enought money for the game, and I find out it is sold out all over my city.

Yes it has online capability. It's one of only two shooter games on the ps2 that you are able to play online as of now. Tribes 2 is the other one, so if you like Seals I suggest you check that one out.

Good luck, See if there is a waiting list. You might want to try reserving a copy and have them call you when it comes in.

yes it has online capability. I know that. I was referring to the fact that you can't play PC gamers against PS2 gamers. Tribes 2 is an alright game, but it's a tad to complex to be any fun. and the gameplay is a tad weak. at least, for the PC version. as for the PS2 vers., I don't have a PS2. i'll have before the year's out, though.
