I am a Socom diehard and I have been waiting patiently to play this game. I was going to buy a PS3 because of this game. Now reading about the game at the boards at playstation.com and speaking with friends that play the game I will not be purchasing this game or the system (I really wanted to play Resistance 2 , damn it). I will be purchasing another 360. My 20 gig HD is almost full of my music so I am going to buy a 60 gig Xbox.

Now I will admit I am a little bias towards Xbox in loyalty but I have owned every PS that came out (about 3 PS2's) but when it comes to purchasing things in real life I could give a crap who makes it as long as it is something I want. I have absolutely no interest in LBP (I am 32 years old and generally into shooters WRPG and action games) and I am not purchasing a system for Resistance when I can play gears.

Dunno in my head it seems like buying the 360 makes more sense which is kind of sad for sony. And the 3 main reasons for buying the Xbox this year is price, new harddrive, and system link (me and a buddy love playing coop).

Just my 2 cents. Peace

To each his own. If you would prefer a second xbox then you are entitled to do so and even enjoy the hell out of it. Even though the server had problems (most of which are fixed now) it got some bad word of mouth. But it's really a very good game. It plays a lot like Socom 2. It has new maps and some old favorites and some really fun game modes. Also, you say you like shooters and it really seems like SONY is the one pushing for new great shooters. Case in point, Resistance 2, Killzone 2, MAG. And on the subject of MAG, it is made by ZIPPER the true creators of Socom and I'm sure it's going to be an incredible experiance for Socom fans. Socom with 250 players sounds epic. There will also be plenty of new action games coming to the ps3 but unfortunatley I don't recall any new exclusive WRPG's coming. But my point is this, buying another system when you already own one is only going to add more and more games for you to play on top of the ones your playing. I wouldn't even say this to you if you didn't already own a 360 but owning a 360 and a ps3 can only win you more imho. You'll get games like Socom Confrontation, MAG, Resistance 2, Killzone 2, MGS4, Uncharted, Warhawk, God of War 3, and so many other exclusives with new ones coming out and unanounced. 360 + ps3 = win.
