If you have a broadband connection and like shooting or military games, this is the one for you. Socom II offers a wide range of guns to choose from and an awesome online experience. If your thinking it's like a Halo game when it takes 60 bullets to kill someone, you're wrong. Socom II has a more realistic gameplay and it takes about 1-5 bullets to kill someone that if you actually hit them. Don't get the game unless you have a broadband connection because the single player experience is alright, but the multiplayer is what makes the game have any value. You can play up to 16 people online. 8 players per team. SEALs vs Terrorist in about 22 levels. I have to warn you about glitchers or so called "noobs" and "scrubs." There are many glitches in the game, but most of the time people don't glitch. There are rooms called "GNK" (Glitch No Kill) where people practice glitching. And the people that call people "noobs" and "scrubs" are just whinning because they suck and can't get a kill. The noob/scrub guns are the IW-80-A2 and the M14. The graphics are pretty well done with the shadow effects and the rain falling in the water. The cinimatics are nicely put together. This is pretty much the only third-person shooter I've played, and by far the best of them. The controls are easy to get use to and you can toggle different controls on and off. The sound is very excellent in this game. The effects of gernades blowing up in your face and the explosions of the bridges are absolutely fabulous. Socom II is fun right when you enter a game, but when you first play it, its a little hard, but you'll get use to it. The game has a very high replay value along with the nice ranking system. But I have to say that some people rank up. One thing though. You must get the Sony Headset for the game. This gives you the full experience of the game.
