but dont get me wrong, i LOVE xraods, ruins, and night stalker. but i would want it on s3. with the realism.

Eeeeexactly. I actually think the graphics on S2 were better... But S3 is so much more realistic, which is mainly what I aim for in games.

The gun fire isn't that hard to get used to, atleast not for me anyways. But hell yeah about the people being jackasses. I bought the game a few months ago, and went into a DG room(since it was one of the very few rooms where I knew what map it was). At the beginning of a round I took out my grenades to throw one down the left side towards the SEALs(spawning on the left side as a terrorist obviously). The trajectory path of the grenade showed it would go over the building, but after I through it it barely hit the building and bounced back. In the mean time a teammate is rushing forward and runs straight into the grenade blast. After I died he was like "OMFG WTF VOTE OFF FOCUS HE TEAMKILLED ME OMFG WOW YOU SUCK" ... "OMFG VOTE OFF FOCUS". I was like "woa now, you ever hear of an accident?" He responded with "you ever hear of you ****ing suck at this game and should just quit now to save yourself the embarassment?"

Back on topic, I like Socom 3 better. The physics of it(how your character moves and such), the customization of weapons, and the people who play it are better. Plus I enjoy actually getting kills instead of looking around for people until someone runs by with an M14 and mows me down.

The guns are the biggest thing I had to get used to. Now that my school blocked S3 somehow, I'm stuck playing S2. Play S3 for a few months, with it's smooth firing guns, then go back and try to use the M14, it's nearly impossible at first. I'm only starting getting the hang of it now that I've been back to S2 for a month or so.

Like you said, I still like S3 MUCH better, unfortunately, it's not an option for me anymore.

the only thing besides some maps i want from s2, is the capability to go prone then stand super quick. where as in s3 u go prone, then try to stand and it takes a second. its more realistic. in s2 i would dodge 90% of sniping shots at me by doing the duck and run tactic. but in s3 all i can do is bob and weeve.

If you can get up in a matter of .2 seconds, we'll put this into SOCOM 4.

SOCOM 2 Is much better then SOCOM 3. Sure, lag, and hit-detection is a constant problem, but who cares? It takes skill.

Socom 2 does take skill, but 3 does take more... =/ WAY more tactics involved.

Not much. If you want to destroy a tank effectively yes, but not much more then two. :(

I bought Socom 3 first week it came out, played for about 1 week. Its been a $50 paper weight ever since, i took it back to Game Crazy yesterday and traded it for Kingdom Heart's.

In Socom 3 all you need is a silenced weapon, ghillie suit, and a nice bush and your damn near invincible. The maps are HUGE which isnt a bad thing until its 1 vs 1 and there both camping so you sit there for 5 minutes waiting for a draw. People TK each other just to get into the damn vehicles and if your in the way they just run you over and the graphics are decent at best.

Socom 2 has its flaws, theres some lag and ummm well thats all i can think of right now but overall i find it a hell of alot more enjoyable.

the only tatic ever used in socom 3 is camp in a bush wiht a ghille suit and sniper rifle. all of the guns in s3 (even with rifle laser and frontgrip) are so inaccurate that all firefights are spray and pray pure luck in socom 3. socom 2 you needed great aim to kill someone, you could rarley get a spray and pray kill unless you used a m14. the tatics in socom 2 required alot more communication and a mix of camping/rushing. socom 2 took way more skill than socom 3.
