:angry:

I am so pissed right now. I bought the first SOCOM a while ago and have been using it perfectly, love it. Today, i rented the second one to try it out before I buy it and come to find out that both my headset *and* my broadband adapter aren't compatible with this game.

That's right, they actually have less compatibility on the second one than the first!

Here's the reason: Both my headset and my adapter aren't official Sony endorsed products. So Sony decided to remove all compatibilty for any other peripheral but officially licensed Sony products. Even though the first one had 100% compatibility across the board.

It's obvious that Sony didn't expect SOCOM to be as big a hit as it is and they thought that making SOCOM 2 with no compatibilty they could force everyone to purchase Sony products.

😡

Frell you, Sony, you worthless pile of dren. :angry:

One more reason why Sony's online plan blows. The most ironic thing about Sony is that they've been taking more pages from Microsofts book than Microsoft did with Xbox and Xbox Live.

I'll take Rainbow Six 3 over Socom II any day...
