Zipper developing another PS3 SOCOM title

Although there are already two SOCOM titles coming out -- Confrontation for PlayStation 3 and Tactical Strike for PSP -- Zipper Interactive, the original developer of the series, is working on yet another SOCOM title for the PS3, 1UP confirmed.

Unlike Confrontation, which is multiplayer-only, Zipper's title will include both single and multiplayer aspects, much like the series has done so far. The two previously-announced titles are being developed by Slant Six but is reportedly working closely with Zipper on them.


Glad to see SP. Played the first SOCOM and it was great.

I played it on the psp and liked the multiplayer. Never really played it much else though.

So how do you like the Ps3? I'd get one if I had some extra cash.

Pros:

-Well built reliable console.
-Built in Blu-ray.
-Free online gaming.
-USB and Bluetooth device compatable.
-Exclusives like R:FoM and Motorstorm with more on the way.


Cons:

-Price. Sony has to lower it. Period.
-Losing too many exclusives.
-Some multiplatform games look slightly better on "other platforms".
-No rumble but that's coming.
-PSN (online network) has to improve.
-Games have to come out in higher than 720p.



I know I listed more negatives than positives but the negativs can change if sony wakes up before it's too late.

If I had the chance to buy a PS3 again, I would in a heartbeat.

Thanks for asking my opinion. :)

The bluetooth was always screwy for me on Resistance. It would like start spinning me around for no reason.

That did happen in the beginning but I haven't heard about the problem in a while. Must have been resolved.

Another thing I like and I thought I wouldn't is the user replaceable batteries. No worrying about buying batteries. My controllers always eventually wear out anyway. This way I just replace the whole thing eventually.
