You should check out "Freedom Fighters", 2003 era 3rd person shooter game. Its phenomenal and hugely underrated. Soviets invade New York and you, a plumber, have to get people to fight for you. Has a really cool gameplay. Its 3rd person, you build charisma by taking out the enemy and rescuing people… and you end up with like 8 people following you who you can arm however you want…and it has the easiest most intuitive "giving orders" system ive ever seen in a game. Super easy to get them to advance, shoot, or defend and their AI is surprisingly good for that era. Im telling you… its one of the most unheard of and underrated games out there
SOCOM was so good it wasn't focused on multi-player and though I enjoy multi-player a really good story mode will always win out when I'm picking a game, and there's just not enough single player of couch co-op military games that don't get brought down by the obsession over the multi-player aspect. I spent hours playing Gears of War 2 with a friend just trudging through the missions.
I love my Vita so hard, but the stick drift on it is almost unplayable at this point, wish I could send it off somewhere to fix it but these days, for Vitas, that just ain't possible no mo…
SOCOM was the 1st game I saw that had 32 players at once via internet. That was a wild introductory experience when the best we had by then, was a 16 player split-screen LAN party on Halo 1.
I own all the SOCOM series for the PS2 I might never make it back to playing them again. But it’s nice to have I still try to make time to play on the PS2 though.

Unit 13 is really mid IMO. It gets way too high of a praise for what it is. Its just a competent shooter not much more
Dude. You’re making us go broke out here

I used to play Socom Navy Seals on my ps2 multiplayer online, I had the network adapter in my ps2, that was a great game. It came with a headset too.
Bro, Socom 2 on ps2 online. Those were the days, free online back then on playstation too
Slept on Unit 13. Bought last year though 👍🏻
Oh man rip to Zipper and SOCOM

What about spec ops they were such a classic game series
Yuuup
Socom on ps2 online was the best! Had soo many hours logged and it's sad because there's not an online game like it still!
Socom would blow call of duty out of the water if they released a current gen title
