Did many people buy this just for the mic?

I got the whole set for 29.99$ and i was just thinking like "meh the game might be ok and if not i can just mess around with people over the mic"

but i hate the game its to hard and if you say like anything random,People are like THAT IT KICKIN YOU OUT

so i am alone?

A lot of people got it just for the mic as well. Myself included. But the game is decent fun, if you have friends to play with.

Bought mine for the mic for $53 because I was going to get a mic anyways. I figured sweet $3 game. I don't think Socom is worth $3. Thats after the patch that supposedly fixed it.

Thats why I got it, Mic works good. I definitely need a mute button and what not.

As far as comfort i dont think its anything special....I alwayd liked the one from warhawk.

How about buying a standard USB mic for $15 at your local Best Buy instead?

Yeah that is what I did

$60 for an official headset (which is $50) and a mediocre, broken shooter was a good deal

I got the endwar pack. Endwar was enjoyable if not a little basic in the way of rts es but it was an amazing mic for $10 less than the mic alone. Excellent mic cheaper than retail + decent game = good deal.

Socom is not broken, or anything, its one of the greatest games iv played. The only reason people bash it is because they suck at it. People are used to COD being easy and when Socom is hard they find other reasons and bash it.

Yeah, I bought it just for the mic, Socom is still sealed, and I've only used the mic for Killzone. But, still a good deal I'd say.

Socom still lacks the simplest thing to make everyone at least a little bit happier.. custom controls! and Socom may be fixed now but for the 6 months after release it was horrendous...

I got it for the mic and honestly I would have been very angry if I bought just Socom sans mic.

People dont hate Socom because they suck. Its just a poorly made game. It takes forever to get in a match and when you do, the graphics are mediocre at best and games' frame rate is still crap. Its a laggy pos.

I got it for the mic then returned the game and used the $40 towards Call of Duty World at War. Luckily the GS employee let me return even though the case said not for resale.

ohh it is not that bad i have not had lag or framerate problems

the graphics are ok and the gameplay is very very good which is what matters. It is socom which I have always enjoyed and like he said the game is hard and it takes time to get used to it and teamwork

I'd agree with you. I would hate somebody in my ear screwing around on that game and yes, it isn't easy like CoD. It requires tactics and thought. :P

Yes it requires tactics, that's why people don't like it. Kills don't come easy to you and people don't like that. Anyone can get a kill in COD but you have to work for your kills in Socom.
