If you like online multiplayer or co-op, then you should like this game. There are alot of people that are upset that Socom 4 isn't similar enough to Socom 1 or 2, and that's unfortunate, but the game is still extremely fun to play in multiplayer. All of the multiplayer modes give you the option of playing classic mode, or the new style where you respawn. That means that there's something for the die-hard fans, but the game can still be fun and approachable to newcomers, and people that just like to respawn. There is only one type of airstrike and they're not handed out that often, so the only spamming you're going to get is by grenades or bullets from actual players. Personally, i find it very refreshing and alot more realistic that there's not killstreaks handed out left and right, and to get your kills you have to actually earn them. This game is more technical and tactical than most 3rd person shooters, which I think is great. The campaign is fun, 14 missions in all, and the graphics and music are very good quality. At times during the campaign I was reminded of the cinematic experience of the Uncharted series. So many people will try to diss on this game, but in the end they're all just crybabies and n00bz. Do yourself a favor and try something that's not a Call of Duty clone for once.
