    SOCOM: Confrontation, the latest and greatest!

    Heya TGites! Just thought I'd drop you all a line to give you a bit of info on the latest installment of, what some say, is the greatest tactical Third-Person Shooter to ever hit the PlayStation console!

    SOCOM: Confrontation features online-exclusive play for up to 32 players and some of the world's greatest special forces like the U.S. Navy SEALs, the British SAS and the German KSK, among others. The game will also feature full clan support (*cough* TG *cough*) as well as full-fledged ladder competition.

    It comes out October 14th in the flavours:
    PSN Downloadable version for $39.99
    Disc version for $39.99
    Disc with bundled Official PS3 Bluetooth Headset for $59.99

    Also, if you live in the United States or Canada and pre-order from GameStop or EBGames you get a voucher to play a beta/demo from Sept. 1 to Sept. 30! Each voucher gives you one beta code for yourself and you can share it with 2 friends! And, seeing as how all my friends are way too cheap to buy PS3s, I'll have 2 beta codes to give away! If you want one, shoot me a PM and when the codes are e-mailed to me, I'd be more than happy to give you one!

    And my PSN is Adombom, feel free to add away!

    Hope to see you on the battlefield!

    The beta went live last night.

    So far I'm really enjoying it. By far the best console shooter I've ever played.

    I think this is going to be a great mic, Sony is making a special blur tooth wireless mic that will sell for $80 -$90 and you get that mic with socom and the game for $59. I'm still using a ps2 mic right now so I can't pass up getting the game and mic combo.
    I will post a review on here of the mic when I get it next month and let you all know my opinion on it.

    As for the socom beta, I think its great , Hands down the best third person tactical shooter on consoles. Send me a add if you want to team up my ps3 tag is DESODE I'll be sporting the TG tag in this game for sure. I play a lot during the week nights and some on the weekends. When Nov comes around I'll be done with work till next spring and will be on full time. I recommend to anyone who likes tactical shooters, Check out Socom confrontation !
    TG Forever, Desode

    Well I decided to reserve the mic one. They told me about how nice it was (dang you gamestop) and I caved. I haven't gotten my e-mail yet and I'm a little angry at not getting expedited.

    I got the Beta also. I'll be under my usual "Elwenil" name. Has anyone set up a TG clan yet?

    I haven't gotten my e-mail in fact I've e-mailed support and they told me to just wait, it's been over a week and I'm pretty pissed, I wouldn't have bought a preorder without the promise of the beta.

    Yeah I set one up but I haven't got any TG players in it yet. Send me a add "DESODE"
    and I'll send you a clan invite. I think this is going to be a great clan game.

    Ok, wow, I should really keep much better track of where I post, I kinda forgot I had one here! Glad to see you guys have taken an interest! I'll be sure to add you guys to my PSN friends list when I get on with the chillens go to bed! I made a clan for myself, just to try the SF-specific weapons (KSK gets UMP, SEALs get the SCAR) but I'd be more than happy to rep TH. I have a few codes left, so if there's any TGers looking to try it out, here's you chance, send me a PM (of course if I forget again, well, it's probably better for you to send me an e-mail)! It's free, and I love free, so I think you guys might, too! I've been sitting on them for awhile and I don't want to give 'em to just some randoms. Note that I don't think of TGites as randoms! :P Anyway, hope to see you guys on Crossroads, and if you're wondering, you can usually find me in any of the US EAST channels on the 8vs8 Elimination (Ranked) games!

    Just wanted to give everyone a heads-up. I still have two SOCOM beta keys available if you don't have one yet. The beta ends on the 5th, so there's not much time!

    Hey guys.
    I'm very impressed by SOCOM. I didn't think it would be up to TGs standards :P
    Well, obviously it is. If there ever is a TG section made for SOCOM, I'm interested.

    As for the beta keys, lucky...
