Quantcast



Sony has announced that SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 3 won't be making its previously announced January 12 release. Sony hasn't yet announced the updated release date for the PlayStation Portable third-person shooter, but promises "a new release date in the coming weeks."

Admittedly, I'm not a huge SOCOM fan. I remember purchasing the series' debut back when it was launched, only to get the PlayStation 2 headset. I spent a few hours getting shot down (and hard) online before deciding that a better use for the headset would be to communicate with my buddies about which loot I needed for Champions of Norrath.

But having gotten my hands on Fireteam Bravo 3 a few weeks ago, I was a bit surprised. I wasn't assaulted with having to spend too much time commanding my two A.I teammates, instead focusing on what I do best -- shoot at things without thinking very hard. The focus of the game seems based purely in action, and the mechanics on the PSP felt pretty good, with an auto-aim and assist that had me taking out terrorists like it was my job

But it's not my job. My job is to find out when Fireteam Bravo 3 will hit shelves, and as soon as I find out, I'll let you know.

I haven't owned a SOCOM game since the part 2 on the PS2.... and I can't tell you why. Not that I didn't enjoy the game, but never felt inclined to continue on.

I won a PSP playing this game while at E3. Sadness.

SLANT SIX Sucks at everything they do, they need to disband and Zipper needs to take back sole ownership of Socom Franchise.

You said it BrickFist. They can shove this one. I tried to take up for Slant Six and this game at one point, but turns out that the only thing they've ever done in videogames is break promises and deadlines.
