05.17.2007 SOCOM CONFRONTATION PS3 GAMEPLAY VIDEO
At first I watched the wrong video, and thought this footage was the new PlayStation 3 SOCOM game. Thankfully it's not, it's SOCOM: Tactical Strike for the PSP, which looks pretty damn good for a handheld title. The video seen above is SOCOM Confrontation for the PS3, and Zipper Interactive's Seth Luisi promises longtime SOCOM fans that gameplay will return to its roots, focusing on "intimate" combat in dense and detailed maps as opposed to huge levels with limited strategy. Supporting 32 players online at once, multiplayer is the only mode that will be offered to gamers, and Zipper will also offer it online as a download before it reaches stores in November. Many beta players are already bored with Halo 3, so if Bungie disappoints us in September, then we should have a great replacement before the end of the year.
