When I first got SOCOM 3 I thought it was the greatest, but the more I played it, I just didnt like it. Sure, the graphics are great, the gun customization is awesome, and theres very little lag, but it just isnt the SOCOM I got addicted to. Over the summer me and three of my friends would play almost every other night and it'd be the best thing ever, we'd clan war until 1 or 2 in the morning and it'd ****in kick ***. Even if we werent playing, just waiting to find a clan to war, we'd still have fun talking in the lobby. It just wasnt the same in S3, there wasn't that feeling of teamwork. With 16 players on the other team you don't get to know people like you did in S2. So I went back to S2 just the other day, and guess what. Its still the best ****ing thing ever. They should have just updated S2 rather than coming out with S3, made a SOCOM II collectors edition thing with better graphics, etc. **** SOCOM 3
Also, your team is much smarter in Socom 2 and I can actually rely on them too get the job done. I don't have to hour all the enemies, sometimes in fact, I wont even get a single kill throughout a whole mission. In Socom 3, I have to make my team's go in certain patterns or else 1 or 2 team members will be stuck somewhere. What do you guys think?
No can't disagree more. The AI is still stupid they don't shoot at enemys that are right in front of them and besides the gun turrets on the Humvee's they can't hit <font color="#FF0000">*censored*</font> I usually go through the hole mission killing everyone they are of no help what so ever.
I might be a little late on this quote but about the gun turrets, it's the exact opposite for me. It's so unrealistic because they point at them, shoot 2 bullets, and kill the guy. If you're on a turret you're gonna HAVE to do SOME spraying, come on now. But these guys are like pinpoint accurate turret-ers?

I personally like SOCOM 3 by far, but I also like to jump on SOCOM 2.
SOCOM 3 is definitely more of a "tactical" type game. It requires a little more thought into what you are going to do. I like the added realism, and I also like how they updated all the weapons a little.
SOCOM 2 is more of a "jump into a firefight in seconds" type game (Example: I love playing Frostfire. It literally takes me about 10-15 seconds to hit a major firefight). I'll play this game when I don't have alot of time to spend playing.

In my personal opinion, I don't think we should be debating on which edition of Socom is better than the other. All, and Every Socom ever made is and will always be the best. They will overlap all of the other PS2 games ever published, so..don't worry about which Socom is better, Hit on some |So-Crack|, take ya' shoes off and sit back. Enjoy all of em', and goddamn..Kick some major A$$ will ya?
Socom 2 would have to win the AI and the commands but if your looking for online then in my opinion it would go to socom 3 because you can play respawns on any mode and you can play any mode on any map, the variations basically.

imo, Socom 3 is a better game, but would be better with maps like Desert Glory and Blizzard added in (via map packs that have yet to surface...). If they ever come out S3 is way better imo.
