Spike TV Ultimate Gamer: Socom 3 Discussion

Kramboid · 10-05-2005

So the episode just aired, and that is one lucky bastard. A PSP, Fireteam Bravo, 3 LCD TVs, 3 PS2's, an awesome computer system, and a full edition of Socom 3. I hate him. He also got to do some sweet Socom style reenactments blowing stuff up, hiding bodies, and blasting actors with AIRSOFT guns.

In the Socom 3 footage they showed, I didn't see anything new, but it's just so awesome that Socom 3 is only days away. I bet that guy could sell his full Socom 3 edition on eBay for at least $100, he is just so lucky! They also gave him a freakin' sweet aquarium coffee table.

AND!!! They showed the first Socom 3 commercial between segments! The hype has officially started. Get ready for intense online shoot action, with Socom 3: U.S. Navy SEALs. Hooyah!

Post your thoughts on the Ultimate Gamer show and/or the new commercial.

I hate that biatch... you don't get anymore loucky than that. Buying a PSP wiped out my bank account, and he gets one for free... and ALL of the games! Then, the shows over and all of a sudden, the host whips out 3 SOCOM 3's... im still waiting for the demo and he gets 3 Final versions of the game.

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Dude I know, one lucky bastard!!! That commercial was so sick too, though there was too much fast-forwarding. Plus, fix your AHHHHHHHH thing, it stretches out the thread.

Well comments, thoughts, and opinions on the show can be posted here. There is actually an entire other thread just for commercials already made.

Anyway, they only showd about 5 minutes total worth of Socom3 footage. All of which was mostly seen before. I had fun watching it none the less. He is one lucky guy. That is a sweet setup, but I would rather be closer to the tv when playing video games. He has to look over the 4 ft high "coffee" table and back 15 ft to see his massive LCD. God, this show did nothing but aggrivate me and get me so pumped that I am not incapable of sleeping.

i am soooo flipping out over that one map they showed that looked like a flooded city with the cars in water up to thier doors while you cruise around in an attack boat. oh man that is going to be my new desert glory!

yea it was pretty good, and look THE NOOB USED A M63 lol jk. but on the reenactment was kinda corny u seen wat it sed all weapons used are airsoft rifles used for safety. that was kind of a given, and wen he threw the grenade... it may just b me... but that puny bastard threw it like 10 yards to the left and not hard enough lol. all in all it was pretty good. favorite part- watchin the fat game tester get pissed and slammin his controller on the desk!

You said it, I need to go to sleep but now I can't... I want Socom now! I wonder if he could get on the servers and has already registered his name...? If so, he could just take all the best and most original name, that is if he's a douche bag and not a cool lucky "azn boi".

That chubby game tester brought joy to my heart. He was so chubby and so angry! Yeah, he did throw that grenade like a little girl, I also doubt he could have done all that stuff in under 60 seconds, there were so many film slices and cuts, it was obviously all just for show.

I was thinking this too, but I doubt they would let him do that. He probably only has lan and single player. I wouldn't doubt the servers are down until October 10th at night.

what made the show even worst, was the fact he never played that game...i mean when he was playin fireteam bravo, he was shooting a guy about 20 yards infront of him with an SR-25 NO SCOPE! (NOOB!) another thing that pissed me off was when he went to talk to the online head guy, and there was this fat piece of crap in this huge size 1040 red shirt sitting in a chair at the top of the screen...another thing was when they were "playing online" funny how they were playing online, yet playing single player at the same time!!! h4X!!! i mean i did see this one multiplayer level, but that was like 1 second long of footage, i had enough time to discover that i was looking at a bush instead of a piece of crap!

bad show, hope his fish die.

Yeah, servers are probably down till later, but they must have some game tester only servers up, they might already be working on a patch. Let's hope they don't need a patch till 3 months later though, eh? I did see some new footage from that show though, that awesome flooded city (New Orleans?) map with the boats and tons of buildings to enter. Let's hope it's online also. :D

I too noticed the lack of real online play footage, most of the time they showed single player, easily distinguished by the names and health at the bottom right of the screen. Just lazy people or they didn't want to release "sensitive" information just yet.
