THE X-RUMORS 6/12/08
by Weapon XWeapon X is back again with some hot news!!!
On the last post I reported that there is a chance that if you reserve SOCOM for the PS3 there would be a chance that you could get in on the public beta of the game. Well it is seems like this rumor just got hotter because as of this morning SOCOM: Confrontation just became available for reservation at a popular retail outlet. There are two different SKUs for the game. One will come with a brand new blu-tooth headset that is equipped with two mics and has sound canceling technology all for 59.99. The other SKU will be just the game only for 39.99. Not a bad deal right? As far as when retailers will get beta passes has not been determined as of yet but what I do know is that Sony is working with one of the retail stores to get as many recruits as possible to join the fight. News should be forth coming in the coming weeks or months as to when the SOCOM beta will get underway. We could be going to war as early as this summer!! Remember take what I say only as a grain of salt but if it comes true remember that you heard it from me first.
Worried about what the next big games coming out for PS3? Don’t worry! Weapon X got you covered.

Motorstorm 2 and LittleBigPlanet are 2 notable titles coming to the PS3 this year as well.
Since Confrontation doesn’t have a Single Player element, I don’t think I will get it, but I I’ve heard something about the full Socom PS3 game coming out next year and it will have a Single Player Campaign and if that’s the case, I will definantly be picking it up.
Now that MGS4 has finally been released, I’m looking forward to that Resistance 2 gameplay footage tommorrow on Gametrailers and then there’s E3 about a month later, it’s an exciting time in gaming right now.
Sweet, I’m glad to see other games adopt the ‘include a headset’ philosophy.
I definitely can’t wait to check out Silent Hill 5. Haven’t been able to check out 4, and 3 left a bad taste in my mouth. Hopefully 5 can bring back the glory that SH2 once showed me.
They are not working on a SOCOM 4. Seth Luisi, the director of development, had said that they are “working on something else” but not SOCOM 4. It doesn’t mean that they are not going to release a SOCOM 4…it just means that they are working on something else :P…and SOCOM has always been loved for the on-line part..which is one of the reasons why SOCOM Confrontation is on-line only…You won’t see much new things to the table with SOCOM Confrontation…They are focusing more on what the fans wants…(mostly what the SOCOM 1/2 fans liked…)…Can’t wait to get SOCOM Confrontation and get that feeling in my heart…being scared to die…(it’s a round based game…involves strategy/tactics…etc)
Wow. If Motorstorm 2 is a game to look forward to on PS3 then you know there haven’t been too many good games for it.
IMO Motostorm was ok at best.
