Has anyone else picked up SOCOM: Confrontation? I just purchased it two days ago and am very impressed with it, more so since the server issues are being actively addressed. For those unfamiliar with the game, you are divided into two teams, Mercenaries and Commandos. These teams battle it out over a variety of missions including team deathmatch, point control, bomb placement, etc.

The game play focuses on using teamwork to your advantage, being able to coordinate really makes this game shine, this aspect really shines as this game also has the largest percentage of michrophone users I've encountered on a PS3 game.

Character customization is present, but is limited to somewhere between R6Vegas and Ghost Recon. Specialized armor and guns become unlocked depending on the makeup of your clan, ie; Germans get some German gear, French get GiGN, etc.

Overall it seems to play similar to GRAW2, but with larger and much better environments. I just wish all the guns were available from the onset.

Anyhow, what are your opinions?
