Socom is 3rd person view gears of war is over the shoulder view. They are very close to each other but not quite the same.

No, you don't seem to understand.

They're BOTH 3rd person view.  GeoW just has a different camera angle than some other games, an over-the-shoulder camera angle.  It doesn't cease to be 3rd person when you shift the camera slightly behind a guy...

If you can see your guy, it's 3rd person.  That's it.  Within third person, there are various camera angles games use, such as over-the-shoulder like GeoW or RE4, or a rotatable camera like many action adventure games use, or even a static camera like the old RE games.  They're all 3rd person views.  1st person is obviously where you see what your character sees, and there is no 2nd person. 

2nd person is for narratives only, where instead of saying "I went to store today(1st person)," they say, "You went to the store today."  And 3rd person is "Jimmy went to the store today."

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
