I love the controls and I hate them at the same time. But once you have them down, you feel like you are in full control of a highly efficient tactical weapon. Even if he can't run w/ night vision on, and that that night vision actually hinders your ability to see anything in detail. However if you can see in the dark w/out night vision goggles, you'll be all the better for it because the gameplay is simply great. The maps are huge and detailed. Except you the player do not get access to a full view of the map, so as to thwart any sort of flank you are planning. Though this only lasts until you have played enough - you memorize each map. I wish the lobby and game finder was more user friendly. I wish that their were ranked matches where "re-spawn" is enabled, besides the 1 game mode I read about in the game manual, but have not seen in the lobbies. I'd like to see more ranked game modes w/ infinite respawn. I have grown out of playing COD4 and enjoy this of shooter, yet the structure of the game and game modes limits your ability to have a fun experience. Example, I am in an 8X8 match and I get killed and then proceed to wait until the match ends, and I am left either spectating players or adjusting my loadout in the meantime. That is BORING! And no fun for me. In that time I could have shot down or group flanked the enemy. I understand no re-spawn is there for a purpose and is a very popular mode, but the game would be more fun if you knew you could rank up in the infinite re-spawn modes. Even if it was like 3 or 4 death limit. But I guess that's life, you only get one. But still, it's a game.
Sir Yes SIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lack of single player aside this is a good game and i feel that Sony continues to do diverse things with its games offering....yeah patients pays and this game had its intial problems but now we can allsay thanks for the patches Sony
and well this is a bit like afore-taste of the upcoming MAG i feel.
Get this the is not for 20 year old grannies, this is pure un-adulterated HARDCORE, think of it as the seperation of boy and man...
but hey i live in Zimbabwe and bread is scarce let alone broadband, Sony no matter what you say, offline missions would have helped..... good game though, definately above average

Review:
SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation
With many of the early online hiccups behind it, SOCOM's PS3 debut emerges as a hardcore multiplayer shooter that seasoned SEALS will surely appreciate.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Offers tons of customization and tactical modern-military action for the series most faithful fans, but doesn't pack enough punch to recommend new recruits to leave their Call of Duty comfort zone. -
