I'm very excited about both, I was a HUGE SOCOM II fan, but didn't like 3 or CA. Watching E3's video about SOCOM really made me excited, they went back to the II roots of close combat and it looks very much like II, which is great.

Started playing Fable TLC chapters again and I cannot wait for 2.

Anyone else looking forward to either of these?

Yes, check out that video if you are any bit interested in SOCOM, it looks promising.

I said the same thing when they announced SC2 and D3. Someone should do a study on this :p

Yes. And not only that, but it's nice-looking, and comes with a charger dock.

:Q They're fun games, although when I played them I was really bad at console shooters, so it was frustrating to do stuff over and over again. I'm sure I'll pick this up, although it's kind of disappointing that there is no single player campaign.

Do you know if there will be a cheaper version without the headset? I already have a headset from Warhawk.

Edit:
Looks like wikipedia answered my question:
The game will be available in two different iterations. The first will be digital download via the PlayStation Network, and the second will be on Blu-ray Disc; the latter including an official PlayStation bluetooth headset. The new headset will also be available for purchase separately for purchase if you download the game or lose the headset that was bundled with the game.

I want the disc, so I guess I'll have to pay for the headset too. Oh well.

Gotta say that those two games don't seem like good reasons to kill your grades for;). I would at least like to look back and say that my name is Michael Jackson, and I had a WoW addiction.
