The PSN being down maybe one of the reasons why Socom has done badly. This was definitely not a good thing for socom.

Socom as a series was never big in emeaa. I find it funny how for the  " new " socom fans were trying to act like socom was going to sell a ton just because its america pre orers were high they assumed that it was going to be just as big as emeaa just because it had a single player, co-op, and online packaged into one game and were using the excuses if confronation hit a million with just only online than socom 4 can easily do it, and now that psn is down now all of a sudden it seems like their going to use the " online being down " as in excuse why it never sold and that it was never inteded for SP. ( even though zipper spent like what? 3-4 years into this project to lose its core base, gain new ones, and focus on its cheesy sp? )

Not excuses as I see it, simply posters who aren't aware Socom is small in EMEAA.

Exactly, it was never big in emeaa to begin with, and it seems like the new s4 fans were banking on this game to sell very well in the emeaa, majority of socoms sales were in the americas. A lot of socom fans were like " oh if confrontation can do a million than s4 can easily do it as for it as sp, co-op and multiplayer ", what they fail to realize is that confrontation barely hit a million after 3 years and a price cut for its release, and now people like mantlepeciek are using excuses as for its because the online was down and thats why it didnt sell, when the fans were trying to say the SP and co-op would carry it. Now it didnt sell well in emeaa now their trying to say oh its because online is down. Its like make up your dam mind on whats going to sale the game and stop making excuses for its letdowns. Then on top of that it had poor reviews.
